Devlog 9: Polish Sprint 1


Hello everyone!

This week the feature freeze started so we can't add any more features. The only thing we have to do now is polishing everything we have.


Ready screen

We redid the whole scene and made everything 3D now. We think this is a lot nicer especially since there are no more bright saturated colors now. We also added some movement in the scene to make it more lively. 


Effects

Some more effects where added while in game like flickering lights, also a more noticeable particle effect for when a player can go lay in bed.


More art

We made some small extra props like a small train and some plushies.


The fifth character is now in the game and textured.


Sound

Time for more of your favorite part of the game, our voice acting! When the players get into bed to trick the parents into thinking they're sleeping they now snore! The parents will never find out what we're up to now.

I also got our final piece of music this week ( credit to Florian Heynen for all the help) which is the victory music.

Lastly I got stuck in to make our main theme have some smooooth transitions ( I never said I succeeded ), this will increase the intensity in the music when more players get caught by those darn parents.

Tune in next week to hear our programmer's silky smooth voice in action.

Programming

Now we finally have time to clean up some stuff we wrote and we are not happy about. Some parts were written very fast and not perfect at all. It worked but it is some code we don't want to see. For example, we now have a spawnmanager what controlls all the spawnpoints in the scene and what will spawn the right player to the right spawnpoint. What we also did was adding a main screen and some rumble when the parents come or when you got smacked.  Because there is now a 3D UI in the begin screen, we had to call those things differently and call some extra animations etc.

That was all we had for this week. Still one more week to go and work on our game.

Hope to see you all next week!

Bye!
