This is the improved title screen. It's by far my most challenging pixel artwork and probably my best.

Stay safe!

The Main Menu

I've spent the last two weeks working on the game's Main Menu. I didn't want it to feel boring but with that 90s kind of 'glamour' ;) I also wanted it to be fast with few clicks, so, there aren't screens but panels users can go back and forth resuming them with ease.

I plan to add symbols (icons) as well, but that will come at a later stage of development. For now, what matters is that it works. :)

Stay safe!

More Base Appliances

This video shows a myriad of new base appliances. I'm still not fully satisfied with some of the new objects, and they all still need to be converted into a 'Game Tile Object' (a term of mine) so they can be collided with and destroyed.

 

It's also tricky to have the same object, like beds, looking consistent when laid down vertically and horizontally. They will look inconsistent in terms of size, but there isn't much I can do about it since the tiling system is square and not rectangular. Oh well...

Stay safe.

Base Interiors And Some Other Improvements.

This video shows the latest developments, which include new base interior GFX, bullet damage, particle collision, and a ventilation system in place.

 

I plan to have all sorts of appliances and equipment to make the bases look functional. This includes laboratories, toilets, sleeping quarters, 3D printing facilities, hangars, medical rooms, recreation rooms, and whatnot. :)

Stay safe!

Blasting Through Doors

Alright! Our first set of destruction sprites are done. Doors can now be destroyed, mostly with explosive weapons and using the Combat Droid's Blastorch.

They are still not complete, still need to create the sprites for the vertical variants, but that will be easy to do, with everything else already in place.

Stay safe!

Outer and Inner Doors Complete

Just finished implementing the doors for settlements. For now, bases only have outer and inner doors but I'm planning on having reinforced inner doors as well, which will obviously be harder to destroy.

Now, I just need to create the destroyed sprites for each of the doors before I can move on to base 'appliances' drawing.

Stay safe!

Base Infiltration

This video showcases what base infiltrations can look like. There's still so much to include but at its core, this is pretty much it.

There's still some droids missing like the Sentry Droid and the Patrol droid. Two important classes of droids for base defense. Hopefully, I will be able to work on them after I finish base development.

Stay safe!
