November Report is out

Post#1 » Sun Dec 06, 2015 2:47 pm

Our November report is out. Read all about what we've been working on in the month of November.

[blank] NOVEMBER REPORT [blank]

Main things we have gotten done are:
Fishing minigame system. By testing with a few fish and a few fishing poles we have a mini game which changes according to which fish you may have possibly caught as well as what fishing rod you use. Short of animations Jayden worked on and tested out the mini game with the different types of fishing poles.

We also have a fully functioning multiplayer system, which we have also tested. You can create groups send private pms, join chat groups etc. Looking Good! Looking forward for next month.

I'm really pleased with the in-game music that has been incorporated.
It gives me all kinds of happy feels inside :">

I enjoyed watching that vid. Can't believe the chat and pm-ing already works! ^^

I too like the music. I have a question, though: Why is the day and night cycle going by so fast? Will it be slowed down for the real thing?

In the demo videos the day/night cycle is incredibly sped-up just to show that it works.

In the actual game a day is going to be about 30 minutes long.

I'm glad you like it, that is by far one of the single coolest things I have made. Not only do PMs work, but everything else too, and it is 100% bug free :D

The day/night cycle is currently sped up by 10x for testing purposes (Time-based stuff that I test, etc.), and each day will take 30 minutes to pass in the final game (though we may balance it out as we and others see fit).

Thanks for replying, both of you :) And ohhh, 30 minutes of daylight and 30 minutes of night? Or 30 minutes per "24-hour" cycle? I think I would prefer the former.

Currently 30 minutes per 24-hour, but like I said, we may be doing balancing, feedback is always welcome.
