Day 1(January 5th)
Ok, so the game I'm working on is called Giving It Up. Whats it about? Ahhh ok lets get into it:
The theme here is Memories, and I have a damn lot of them from the past few months actually. I went through a change in my life that made me realize one thing cant be your answer to everything. That realization has changed a whole hell of a lot over the past few months so here I am to express that in GAME MODE. Your goal as the player is to take a Box thats special to your character to a place to get rid of it. Thats the simplified version anyway. Along the way you will have to either hide from demons, fight them off and explore a good sized building to get to your goal.
Its basic but I like where its going! Im in no way an artist so I spent most of today making big chunks of code!
The Bedroom
Well I did a little bit of work on some texturing and basic models to make the starting area slightly bearable to look at. Overall the graphics were the last thing I did for the day. However the movement code and interaction with objects was done really early on as I felt the movement wouldnt be do bad.
Combat
So if you ignore the awful animations you notice that Im working on a blocking system and player damage. I also got it so that the enemy will die if hit by the player. (Only after watching this 100 times do i realize how jaring the damage pop is, gona fix that!)
AI
On the AI I made this enemy walk between locations at random, almost like a guard in most games except this on has a completely unique patern to it. Which I felt would add more suspense to not knowing where the actual enemy would be going. The hiding system has almost been finished where if you hide in designated areas the enemy cant see you, unless the enemy saw you go into the location then they chase you there and try to kill you anyway. When the enemy spots the player it gives chase but when it looses sight of the player it still makes chase at its last known location of the player until it pauses to do one last sweap and returns to its patrol.
Day 1 Thoughts
I was pretty happy with my progress today, Im not sure how much work ill get every day but im hoping I can get the same amound as I did this time around. If thats the case then I know I can make this game in 15 days! Thanks for reading everyone. BYE!~
