Random Fact Thursday

We use spritesheets for our animations and world building!

To tableflip or not to tableflip

In terms of style, I am in a dubio...

I somewhere feel I wouldn't play this game if I were to judge it by the style. This screenshot is extremely unattractive to me. I believe this to be because of my use of brushes and ungamey shading. It also feels rather stiff in places, but that is partly because of the techniques we chose.

Sketches like these still fit perfectly in the game, though. So maybe I shouldn't worry too much.

Random Fact Thursday

Just like with real backpacks, 

if you make a mess in there,

 you will have to take everything out 

to get to that piece of candy at the bottom!

Editor

A somewhat unexpected addition to the game: the "interesting scenery creator"!
In order to create more interesting random environments than the computer would, we required an editor and system that allows smooth exporting and importing of tilesets.

Abilities

• Insta-fill the parcel with a type of ground.
• Add assets.
• Scroll through spritesheets.
• Easilly move all assets around the parcel.
• Randomised ground tiles.
• Exports the source code instead of a scene to prevent lag.

Aaaand we really need to add a undo function soon, aaargh!!
