Glitched: How much of a mess can I not make?

Another week huh? Time does fly. I've had to roll the version of Unity I was using back as the new version mysteriously corrupted when trying to talk to Visual Studio. I tried to fix the issue by moving my IDE over to Atom in the hopes that it would fix some problems.
Sadly, it made things slightly worse due to a lack of intelliSense for Unity. Once I was back in action the code flowed quite seamlessly. The end system (killing the boss) is currently in position to begin testing. So far all tests are going well as the game win state!

A testing environment


One of the things I'm contemplating is how many lives the player has or should I just limit it to one life. Here are the potential side effects:
  • Makes the game a bit easier considering the bullet hell side of the game would make it a bit too easy on the player.
  • It could make the feel of the game become to... simple
If I go for the one life or reset the effects are:
  • Heightened tension and difficulty at the start of the game

Over the next week I will come to a decision and update you on the decision on the next post. Here is hoping level 2 will be done as level one is not done just yet due to the enemies on being in yet. Here we go again!

Motion Check: The intro

Oh boy, here we go again. Another one month build and this time I've decided to handy cap myself big time. Let's start those rules up! Create a movement system in Unreal Engine 4 Allow for sliding, long jumping, sprinting and crouching Allow for sliding, wall running, and wall hopping (Akin to Titanfall 2)  And now for the BONUS ROUND Let's start it up with better guns, allowing weapon swapping an ammo create a melee attack that works So far, I've got the running, walking, crouching and aiming done. First trick: using a basic UE4 FPS project and learning how to use the Blueprint system in UE. This makes my life five times easier due to my memory of C++ being terrible. I'm going to need to repair my computer and get this laptop I'm currently using UE4. That's right, the running and crouching were put in before my machine decided to flip me the middle finger before the motherboard decided to scream for a new battery. Oh boy, I'm looking f

Bits and glitches: World building in a month

Like the title says, for a one month text based game, it's not super easy. Sorry for the delay, I've been a tad bit busy job hunting and coding. I won't give away what is happening in this small text based game, though I will try to convey that there is a loose plot. Most of the base interactions are in and ready. Nothing more will be talked about until Thursday/Friday/
