Sweet    Been coding on it last few nights, adding a bit more depth to the weather system, the rates that it reduces your stamina, stuff like that, also adding in physical and mental sickness, every time the players stamina is reduced to 0 you gain a sickness, most are curable except maybe death via other healing items in the game world, ive pretty much covered everything from getting a stroke to phobias to straight up crazy seeing fantasy type creatures.  got a pretty extensive list of items now as ive spent alot of time on this inventory system, more time than I would have liked really...  So the new direction for the platforming mechanics of the game is using items to assist in platforming, one example comes to mind to cross a river you need to lumber a ton of trees, and use the wood as sort of a floating bridge to get to the other side, stuff like that.  Id post some screenshots but I havent really done much more art yet

That's certainly beautiful.

I somehow managed to miss this one. This looks really cool! I hope you get it done :D

[HybridMind]

holy crap this looks awesome! love the original art mockup style as well as once you de-rezzed it a little for the game.

Now its time to mine!



More to come I guess...

Thanks dude, yea just toying with effects atm, not sure ill go with the blury pixel look, we shall see...   More worried about balancing and making it decent fun to be honest.

This looks incredible.

All this is just two weeks work!? Man, you must be a machine. That's some top notch eye-candy.

I personally hate the blurry pixel look. I much prefer crispy pixels.

Same here, I preferred the sharp, sleek look.

The fuzzy reminds me of CRT displays...

i love that fuzz!  please leave it in as an option or release a separate Blurry Edition.
most people will probably want a crisp version, of course, so don't ignore them, i s'pose.

also, will there be destructible terrain?  seems like that's where you're heading with this.

for some reason i felt like typing like this today.  even though i've been typing with capital letters since age eight.  sometimes i am crazy.  i think today is one of those days.

[Melly]

Options are good, yes.

[Farmergnome]

ill put up two builds then when its done, because im pretty sure the pixel purists will hunt me down and all that    Personally I like the blurry look more, but thats just me.

Ummm nope, I wish ha, the game is setup to do it but it will just break it in so many ways...

I would enjoy a blurry edition if it simulated selective focus, like if the midground were clean and crisp and the foreground and background were blurred.

[deathtotheweird]

The only reason I don't favor the blurry one is because it looks so bright, it appears that the contrast is up super high. Even though I love the original crispy pixels, I still don't mind the new look that much.

Of course, it is your game, and you should make it however you want. Tell those pixel purists to shove their crispy sharp pixels up their fucking ass

Come here and try, bitch.

[Dugan]

yes a crispy pixel option please - the art for this is looking awesome!
