Adventure X new demo stream

[p][/p][h3]Development state[/h3][p]This month I went back to the foundations of the game and worked on improvements to the demo. The updated demo, prepared for the Adventure X exhibition, also represents progress toward the full game. In this way, I am not only revisiting the basics, I am enhancing the final result.[/p][p][/p][p]Here are some of the improvements in version 4.0.0 of the demo, now published on Steam as part of the Adventure X Steam event:[/p]

• [p]New main character animations, such as María knocking on the house door or her breathing idle animation.[/p]
• [p]María now shows emotions visually (more about this later in the text).[/p]
• [p]A “thinking” feature when María does not speak in a dialogue or aloud. This helps keep the non-voiced parts of the demo more logical, and it could also serve as a way to apply voice acting to the full game in a more affordable manner if full VO funding is not achieved, ensuring at least dialogues and spoken lines are voiced.[/p]
• [p]Dynamic lighting applied to characters, improving the overall graphics.[/p][p][/p]

[p]Additionally, there is an extra puzzle from Act 1, exclusive to the onsite audience at Adventure X, featuring the first “adventure game boss fight” of the game.[/p][p][/p][h3]Emotions system[/h3][h3][/h3][p]As I mentioned above, María can now express a wider range of emotions visually. Up to nine emotion animations have been added, designed so they can be easily applied in dialogues or at any point in the game. The system is also scalable, allowing for more emotions to be added in the future. If you have any suggestions that would fit the character, please share them with us on our Discord server![/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]I look forward to meeting many new people connected to adventure games on Adventure X event this weekend, including some well-known figures from the industry. Expect some great photos from the event in the next update. And who knows, maybe even a photo with Dominic Armato, the voice of Guybrush Threepwood![/p][p][/p][p]That’s all, see you soon with more news and insights![/p][p][/p][p]Luis from Torrezno Entertainment[/p]
