Hey guys, voxelmaker here! This is my first devlog on Itch, so please forgive me if I mess up formatting. Just began my game Subject 767, a retro-style movement FPS. I've been sorting out the camera and characters as well as weapon models and icons. Below is an image of the player. As I don't want to spoil the lore, I won't reveal why the character has blue spots.

Been making some effects such as fire, images attached below. As the game is set in a future wasteland, there will be a lot of sparks, flames and special effects in general, so the next devlog will most likely be  effects before I move on to coding the gun engine.

Sparks are here! I used a fountain preset and changed the positioning, size and colour before welding/attaching it to an object model.

Been working on a combat engine and I’ve got the basics down. No screenshots available as it is still WIP.

Combat engine is glitchy, but I got a image of it- although i might need to edit it .

(the game, not the image!)


I think I found a bug.



Bug has been fixed: I incorrectly attached the gun to the camera, not the player.

The game is looking great! What engine are you using?

I’m using a game engine called ‘RPG in a Box’. Although you have to pay to download it, you don’t have to pay them a percentage of your earnings. You can get it on Steam, Itch.io and Epic.

Decided to use a transparent PNG image over the screen as the model of the revolver wasn't following the camera well enough.

Due to bugs, I've had to scrap the transparent PNG.

Fixed a bug where the camera wouldn't follow the gun. I've taken a picture of the gun looking down with the camera and the image is attached below. 

I also added a new enemy named a 'Bio-Lump'.


Began to finalize recoil and I've added a crosshair.

Been working on Level 1A.



Decided to revamp Level 1A as it wasn't looking the best.

I finalised Level 1A!


I also finished Level 1B, which is meant to be a training area/ test area. I added some targets and put a glass model to good use.


Been working on Level 1C. Although it's not finished, it's going pretty well.

Here's the overlay for Level 1C.


Another image of Level 1C.


Finally, I began to build Level 2A, a vent system with lots of twists and turns. I put lots of (jammed) vents and the player has to find the correct one.


As my projectiles were phasing through walls, I had to set up custom collisions.

Been working on Level 2A and an emporium where you can buy items.

I've decided to stop documentation of this game due to my lack of progress on it. I may continue developing it, however the devlog will not recieve updates.
