It feels good to scale back and just write everything myself. This is done in  LÖVE framework, and so far I’m liking both the framework and Lua as a programming language.

I’m streaming some UE4 tonight, to test how streaming gamedev might look like. You’re welcome to join and watch at: https://www.twitch.tv/nora_sellisa ! There will be no mic, and I won’t spend too much time in the chat, but if you want to see some UE4 and listen to some Metroid Prime OST then do come by :) I’ll probably only stream for an hour or two - we’ll see.

Who knew, thrusters are actually fun.

One horribly disgusting include of a .cpp file later, this colourful mess can commence.

Development-wise you can still consider me dead, it will be easier that way.

Sorry for all the radio silence lately. I was busy and/or lazy, got my B.Eng, and had a lot of other things to sort out. Meanwhile, vertex shaders are coming along nicely..

Ain't she a thing of beauty.

Feels good.

It took me five days of different approaches, but a semi-okay walking spider is here. I have three ideas that could use it, so my next task will be to turn this into a reusable component that I can just drop in to an actor and have it just work.

Each year as the end draws near I promise myself I’ll make at least one game, so that the whole year won’t be fruitless. And even though I can’t work on my last project (since I don’t have neither the oculus nor the hardware to power it) it didn’t stop me from creating yet another “third person example” UE4 project and messing around it. 

This is it, I left the jam. The project will live on in 2018. Merry Christmas and see you all (those two other devs who like my posts) in 2018. I might post an asset here or there but no promises.

I TOLD YOU THERE WILL BE PROGRESS. This might not seem like much. I get it, believe me. But figuring out how everything connects to itself and to player’s hands was a chore. Hand waving at the end was just me feeling joy that this is behind me. Now, onto next tasks. There isn't much time left and I got only one core mechanic down, but I am optimistic. We’re back in the game, baby!
