Devlog #4


Good evening,
This week has been a little slower for me, I haven't gotten too much done, but I figured I'd take the opportunity to lay out some plans we have for the next few weeks, and show off some art Hen has been getting done. 


This is a small little ruin Hen made. We want to make our areas look well detailed and interesting, and I personally thought this was a great step in that direction, especially following last weeks decorative pieces. 


This is a new building that Hen made, and if you look closely, you'll notice something peculiar wrapped around Mono...


It's a snake! One small element Hen and I have been thinking over is a companion for Mono, who will be both a useful asset and a brave friend for the player. This little snake you see here is a small little peek at this companion idea, and we have a lot of ideas for his usage, so be on the lookout for the snake hiding around our devlogs!

As for me, from the programming side, I've started work on a few new systems and ideas for this week, with not much to show quite yet. 
Here's some of the things to be looking out for in the next few weeks:

Enemy Pathfinding
Enemy Patrolling
New Enemy Attacks
Lock on system
Stealth :o

Over a small discussion about tall grass, Hen and I decided that we wanted to add some stealth areas to the game, to add a layer of suspense in some areas and show off Mono's sneaky skills.


For a little bonus for getting down here, this is a piece of conceptual art for the fortune teller, made by Hen. The fortune teller will be an entity the player will encounter in The Mansion, who will hold a pivotal role in Mono's fate in the game..



Thank you for reading, let us know if you have any comments or questions, we'll do our best to respond,

The grass looks really nice at the bottom of the ruins, feels like it’s actually there instead of just floating on top. I think a tall grass/ stealth idea would be cool!

The ruin looks amazing! Companions sound fun. Will it just be the snake or will there be others? Is the snake going to have a name? Also, all the concept art is super cool! Makes me want to get my fortune told!
