Hello, everyone!
Hey Everyone! We've been working really hard on getting a demo ready for the game!
Recently I've been working on lots of back end systems for the game so haven't had a lot to show! However, I also gave the map of the Izu Peninsula a total overhaul!
The world map is one of the first things you see before setting out in your sushi truck, so I wanted it to feel like more than a simple location select screen.
Heres the map of the Izu Peninsula before!
It was lacking detail and character. I also got feedback from you all that the color was too flat!
And heres the after result! I spent some time travelling around the Izu Peninsulia last year and used a lot of the pictures i took as reference for this!
The goal here was to make it a lot more detailed and create movement, making the map feel alive!
Here's the bamboo forest on the map. I made a fun shader animation that makes it sway in the wind!
If you have any questions, come over and say hi in the discussions 👋 I'd love to hear from you!
And before you go, please consider wishlisting our game if you haven't already -- it lets us know how much interest there is, and helps the game gain visibility 💖
Thank you for coming along for the adventure! 🍣
