 Like us on the facebook! NAMECHANGE!! 31/07/2013 The game will now be called PointStar.  Hey i'm working on a game wich is still a working title. The gravity of a situation. Might be a bit to long to be a title. But hey, i'm still working on it. I started working on this game since 5/11/2012, this will be my devlog containing all new features and development. I havn't done lot of the art yet. As I wanted to get my prototype working first. But this mockup will be the direction I want to go with. I tend to draw a bit skewed. Bad habit I guess, but a quick fix with photoshop. Most of the coding is already done. Here is a video of the core gameplay. I Will post a new video soon wich contains more assets. Like interaction with terrain, slope collision, times beams,... EDIT OLD ART STYLE REMOVED!! |

Coding some interaction with some small stuff. Do keep in mind the visuals are still placeholders.
EDIT: OLD ART REMOVED

The character looks great. Hope the rest of the game's graphics adopts that style.

This is not dead, just doing the things I promised to do. Bin tidying up my code so everything will work on iOS. This will probably release on the same date now then the pc/mac version.
Now that all the coding is done i'm on to graphic visualisation,level design and cutscenes!!

I added some new interesting assets for gameplay.
You can now enter the vacuum of space, refill your oxygen, open and close pressure doors.
I also coded quictime events. Sutch as lifting a pilar that has fallen on you.
I'll make more quicktime events as I continue working on the game. Sutch as force opening doors, removing obstacles,...
Here is a video of all of the current assets.

That's great!
Are you going to make the rest of the world the same art style as the astronaut?

The art looks fine, but on my monitor it looks like you put some sort of effect on the scene? I really don't like that effect. Could just be that your gif program malfunctioned.

that was some bad gif program I used before I knew of Licecap. No worries it doesn't look like that at all. That's great!

I'm actually maybe revisiting the art style yet again. i've changed these sprites now over 5 times. |

I'm trying to implement some light with raycasting and sutch. Here is a gif. Licecap makes the radial blur look wierd though.
It's still somewhat buggy and i'm not even sure if I would want this in the completed game.
Good practice anyway!
EDIT!!!!!!: I scraped the idea of lightning in the game. Doesn't match the current art style.

After allot of thinking I figured out I should remain to my roots with this game. I want it to really show my oldschool gaming roots. Cough Commander keen cough... So naturally it should be a game with very small sprites. I made a series of mockups again. And finally found a protagonist worth enough to be the main character.  More sprites will follow soon! |

This looks way better than your initial guy. As usual, less is more :-)
