Hey friends,
Here is a update on what I've worked on so far. This past several weeks I've made some pretty significant changes with the environment, models, gameplay and Interface. Here what I've add so far.
Environment Updates -
The arcade interior is finished for Build 8. I change the second floor which was a separate room with two ramps going up to it before. Now it's a cafe and with a bathroom on the right, I am satisfied with this change.
Player/NPC Updates -
Law enforcement is reinstated with a whole new look. The police vehicle has been changed as well. You be able to drive this when I add it in somewhere along this build development roadmap.
Gameplay Updates -
The adult system is added with animations, but not all of the animations from Build 7. The dialogue interaction UI now has a cinematic look with fewer buttons. I want the conversation to stand out and it's like watching a movie.
You can now hover the mouse on whoever you are talking to and interact with their body parts.
The AI dialogue system now recognizes commands that type in this format : * Example command *. It doesn't recognize a whole lot of commands but this is the foundation on where I would like this dialogue system to go.
Also, when you sleep, time passes now.
UI and Menu Updates -
A new background for the Character Customization Menu has been added instead of an empty background. It would be the room you start in.
Thanks for reading, just a reminder I am rebranding the game. The game is no longer called "Love X Lust", it is called "HeatWave." This is not a new game; it's the same game with a graphic overhaul and better mechanics.
Thanks for reading,
