First Month Of Development

Posted 07-01-2012 at 02:03 PM by JayDee
Dev Diaries, cause it helps me knowing what I've managed to do in the time I've set out to do it in.

Woop, pretty much a month since i started the development of A.L.I.V.E. Revived, when i started i made a little Spider diagram of everything I wanted to get done in the first month. Which explains why there seems to be no specific order in the objects I add.

So yeah here's the diagram.

Loveley ain't it?

So far I've done pretty much everything I've set out to do. The grid based movement is one of the only things on their that I haven't managed to do.
Grinders and Falling Meat have been added but are currently only moving blocks until I redraw previous/unmade graphics for them.
"See and Shoot" AI for Sligs has also been added but is still pretty basic.
Blood n' shit, refers to a gore engine that I made a while back that I've implemented into the game.

First Month Summary:
-Interactivity-
+Basic Movement
+Slig AI
+Mudokon Emotions
-Hazards-
+Electricity Walls
+Chant suppresion orbs
+Falling Meat
+Land Mines
+Grinders
-Other-
+Blood and Gore

That blood 'n' shit better contain Abe exploding into tiny pieces after stepping on a mine or getting hit by a saw. Have some come at the screen and bounce back into the environment 3D style as well.

Currently the blood n' shit are just stock graphics but yes, it should work as it did in AO/AE, the particles also collide with walls in the game so some of them just roll along the floor.

Liver?

Like I said, I just need a way to quickly see what I've done in the time I've set out to do it in. And I'd prefer not to search through a thread when I could just as easily make a blog.

Yes, one of the reasons why we have FC is to share topics with like-minded people. That is not the reason I was referring to.
