Weekly Report #29

Hello, stalkers!

So, this week we do not have many big surprises or plot twisting information. From now on, we are focusing on something very important for us as developers and for you as players. The secret thing is OPTIMIZATION. We will try to make our game run better and smoother. But it does not mean it will look worse! Quite the opposite...

[h3]Working on those details![/h3]
As you may already know, we are using photogrammetry to create our models and textures. However, it not always gives us the effects we want. Every time we need to polish those little things. And we love every small detail in our game! Just look at this tree structure and all of the love our graphic designers give to those plants.





Of course, sometimes we have to make some sci-fi materials by ourselves. It is rather unnatural to see chernobylite in the wild. And every time we face a difficult choice. What texture to chose? How green it should be? Should it shine or not? Here is just an example of choosing new chernobylite shaders.

[h3]Take some notes[/h3]
Another detailed stuff in Chernobylite. Notes. Have you seen them in our game? Usually, they are important clues which you should really like to collect. You have seen them in other games for sure. So did we. And that's why we try to make them realistic and unique. Sometimes we use our handwriting, sometimes we fold real pieces of paper and take photos of them, and sometimes we sneak some information and photos we took during our visits to Chernobyl!





[h3]Knock knock! Who's there?[/h3]
We are still working on some new characters - those more important and those you will see only in your memories (or imagination?). First, take a look at a very early stage of a new mysterious NPC. He is truly well-packed!



And last but not least - we were back at our office last week! Of course, just for a while and just with a couple of us but the goal was very clear - take a scan of the new character. We missed it so much!



[h3]Bzzzzt![/h3]
Do you hear that? Is that the sound of some new locations in a game? You are not wrong, we are working on them too! Is that chernobylite all over the place? And some weird technological stuff even we do not understand? Well, you will need to wait for the answers a little bit longer!



Remember to join our streams!

As we already told you, we’re making the livestreams a regular thing. Besides special ones, which we will also make, we will stream the game and answer your questions every Monday, starting around 6:00 to 7:00 PM CEST (we’re announcing every one of them in our social media soon before it starts or just after it has started)

Here’s the link to the transmissions, it’ll always be the same one: https://steamcommunity.com/broadcast/watch/76561198887982618

So that’s all for this today.
Take care, stalkers!
