DevLog: Adding Some Eye Candy
Hey everyone,
there is a lot of hustling and bustling going on in the BattleJuice Alchemist factory. The new tutorial level is taking shape and business opportunities are on the horizon. Patrick is cracking away on the texture overhaul and I also set aside some time to work on some eye candy.
In the gif above you see that Juice now carries a candle on the top of his barrel backpack. This gave us the chance to add a light source low above the ground that results in neat shadows from the flora he passes.
A second visual improvement was adding some physics to breakable objects. Destroying stuff feels a lot more satisfying now:
I will talk a bit more about the mechanics of the new tutorial level soon, here is a little sneak peek of the shrines that will guide your way through it:
Three moving images could only be spoiled by adding more text, so all that's left for me is to thank you for reading and wish you a good start into the weekend!
