I miss tangible inventories.

I miss tangible inventories.

I hope this is tangible enough

[Graham.]

Yes. Is there a "grasping" sfx?

I would make the hand smaller or partially transparent. The focus should be on the items, which are beautiful.

Not yet. We'll probably add one that differs based on the item you pick up. We've already done some sfx for it but not all items have sfx.

Sorry but this is the way it's going to be. The hand graphic will eventually change based on what item you pick up and also you need to see what button you're going to press with it (keypads etc).

Puzzles work now. They also work even better than they used to

Really like inventory management animation. So cheap, simple and cool! Reminds me of Terry Gilliam's work for Monty Python.

Well changing the sfx/graphic based on item goes towards solving the same problem. So it's okay.

The keypad thing isn't a good case though. You could easily solidify the hand when necessary.

That inventory is nice.

Thanks

You'll be able to poke with a finger so I think it'll work out just fine.

Final result:

[Graham.]

Yeah. I like this btw.

[zamp]

Yeah. I like this btw.

Thanks

I have a feeling something was corrupted when I moved my map data parser to another class...

Oh man that inventory system is brilliant.

Optimization Day 3

Everything seems to be working. Haven't checked if scripts broke but for now I'm going to say optimization is finished. I've re-implemented most of the sanity based effects (the screen warps and distorts again  )
I tried using perlin noise to give it some extra warpyness (is that even a word?) but perlin noise is seriously expensive to do! So I dropped it. Maybe I should just make a tileable graphic to get the same effect much, much cheaper.

Woooo! Warpyness!


Next step: going bat shit crazy... Time to work in this one visual effect I've been thinking about for months now. It's quite hard to put into words but I'll try anyways. The effect will fade in another layer on top of the current world. This layer adds this grimy, rusted out look to the game. How it's going to fade in... well... it slithers in like a bowl full of worms.

[zamp]

I call this a day. Time to go waste my time in minecraft.

Btw: effect is way too fast in this gif. I set it this high just to test it out.

Would you be interested to see a broadcast of what goes on when I develop the game on twitch or other streaming website? If you are could you tell me your timezone (in GMT+/- please) so I can find out a good spot to stream at.

Hell yes!
