Here's some work on the underground area that'll be near the beginning of the game. Right now this is just 1 block type and 1 decoration, and it already looks cool! We'll keep you posted as we add more.

I spent the past few days making water! It came out way better than I expected and I'm not sure if I've seen the same graphic technique anywhere, so I thought it'd be fun to write about the technical stuff behind it.

The first trick is a shader that applies a gradient to every object, based on how far underneath the water's s...
2020-04-04 17:12:03 +0000 UTC View PostHello again! Part 1 is here, where I talked about action game boss design. This time I'll be talking about powerups in exploration-focused games, why I think the usual approach isn't perfect, and why I'm going in a slightly different direction for Sunfluffs.
First, when I say "exploration game", I mean any game where the primary way ...

Every once in a while, a mysterious object falls from the sky... a Shooting Star! These always land in places that are hard to get to.

If you've played Copy Kitty or seen any of our other works in Zoincailla, you're probably familiar with how magic works there... but here it's completely different!
Every Sunfluff has a single magic Trick they can do! Here's some examples:
Meet Moofle the Moonfloof! C...

Here's a few ways that the Furlong messed up during development. The flat-face one actually took 6 hours to fix and was unbelievably frustrating! (But in hindsight, that's one of the funniest things to get stuck on...)

This is basically the best critter I've ever made! This started at a much smaller scale but I decided to go all-out with it, which is why it took so long. Make sure to leave a comment!

You can put a strawberry on the gear and it delivers it to the other side as it rotates! I've done a bunch of placeholder/layout work for this environment but this is the only screenshottable thing so far.

The top picture is Raibys's concept art, and the bottom picture is my (Azure's) EXTREMELY early progress on it. Most of my time so far was spent on the tiling code - that screenshot is made from literally 1 block type placed on a grid, but it automa...

It's been about a year since the last Copy Kitty update. This one won't be huge, but there's been things that have been bugging me and I want to take a week or so to fix them. It's aimed mostly at "replayable content" like speedruns and the level editor, without any new bosses or anything. Here's the tentative change log:
After befriending a critter, you can pick what to do with it! Each critter has its own set of actions. Give fruit to lots of things so you can see what they all do!
Eventually, friendly NPCs will have a similar system where you can hug them, give them food, or show them different items to see what they say.

The two of us have been going through some REALLY rough times lately, and we've felt very unsafe, so we haven't had time or energy to work on anything. If you follow us on twitter or discord you probably know at least some of what's happened, but I don't want to get into details because it's depressing.
We probably have it all resolved now, though. The situation isn't ideal but we'll be flying somewhere safe t...

Hello! Me and Raibys have been in a slump lately so I wanted to do something easy and fun. I modelled a basic shirt for Cleru (and NPCs) where I can swap out the textures really easily, and it can even be any body/sleeve length since it supports transparent pixels! Over on twitter I asked people to give me some shirt suggestions, and ...

It's a new powerup! It doesn't actually do very much but it would be mean if Cleru had to walk around in the rain without an umbrella.
I don't know what to call it though, does anyone have any suggestions?

This cutie boofer is named Rus. She somehow got a hold of the Storm Collar and can woof tornados now! How will Cleru ever tame such a ferocious creature?!

The model and animations aren't entirely done yet, but it's been so long since the last post that I figured you'd appreciate a little preview! More dog content soon!
2019-05-23 03:23:57 +0000 UTC View PostHere's something different! I usually go on game design ramblings in the Discord room, but that's easy to miss and I figured it'd be cool to have a more permanent place to put them. Some of these will be about stuff I did in Copy Kitty and other ones will be random musings about unrelated games.
