Ho-Ho-Ho!
Here is your bearded developer! I'm no Santa Claus, but I still have something for you all!
1) Let's start with the game development information:
Unfortunately, since the start of my thesis got in the way, the scope of the update is a bit smaller than I would have liked, however, we have progress:
- Menu navigation / UI with keyboard and gamepad.
A prototype UI has been developed for the game.
This has full keyboard and controller (gamepad) support.
The final design of this still needs to be worked out.
Status: Work In Progress
- 3D characters and their animations
In the meantime, a total of 43 different characters have been created and modeled.
The number of animations to be created for them has risen to about 100.
Of these, 27 are finished.
Status: Work In Progress:
- Voiceover integration:
In the meantime, most of the gameplay has been recorded in English only for now.
But a German dubbing will come for this as well.
For testing I have already integrated the first voiceovers.
However, there is still potential.
Status: Work In Progress
- Studio Animations
For color changes of the studio and light animations a new animation system is being designed. The implementation of this will follow in the period until the next DevLog.
Status: Starts / Work In Progress.
Other TO-DOs:
- Twitch Chat Integration
- Character customization (also through chat commands)
- Modability from outside
- Question databases
- Localization of text & audio (German & English)
- In-game statistics
- Steam Statistics
- Steam Achievements
