Hi puzzlers, now that [i]The Unbeatable Path[/i] is about halfway finished, we took the time this month to test the entire project and fix the bugs we found. This took some time, but still didn't stop us from partially implementing the new map "Staring Woods" and creating the corresponding assets for this level. [h1]Project Progress[/h1] [list] [*][b]Playtest:[/b] This month we took a lot of time to test the content so far. In addition to gameplay tests, our QA also performed collision tests and sound tests, just to name a few. A collision test, for example, checks whether the character is blocked by certain objects. A sound test, for example, checks whether the sound slider for effects in the menu also affects the corresponding sound effects (for example, a fire) in the game. [*][b]Bugfixes:[/b] Based on the bug list of the playtest, all bugs found by our QA were fixed. At the same time, the code was further optimized to prevent future bugs as much as possible. [*][b]New map "Staring Woods":[/b] We have also started to implement the next map "Staring Woods". The player will now advance further into hell with this map, which will now reflect the hellish environment more clearly. The level design including the puzzle gameplay is 50% complete at this point. Since this is a somewhat larger outdoor map that includes 4 separate puzzles, we are probably still busy with the completion of the entire month of April. [*][b]3D Modelling & Animation:[/b] For the new level, of course, many new 3D objects are needed. Since the world is now turning more and more into a real hell, we are currently in the process of creating and animating many organic-looking assets. You can find a foretaste of this below. [/list] [h1]Eye Candy[/h1] The new level is not finished yet, but we still want to show you some assets of "Staring Woods". All assets are work in progress and can therefore still change in the final game.
