Devlog — Semaine de développement

This week marks a turning point with the introduction of major in-game events.

⚠️ Combat — Issues identified

• Lack of impact and clarity

• Hits don’t feel satisfying

• Dinosaur reactions still feel limited

• Combat feels too rigid against large creatures

🎯 Work in progress

• Damage rebalancing

• Improved visual feedback (hits, reactions)

• More dynamic and immersive combat

🌋 Major events
Two key scenes are now playable:

• An escape sequence involving Baryonyx

• The Breach battle

The Breach introduces something new:
a strange… unstable… almost living phenomenon.

📖 Lore & narrative
The world is changing.

• Dinosaurs and modern animals now coexist

• Something has broken the natural balance

And at the center of it all:
Tawa

• Is she the cause?

• Or the only one who can fix it?

🐗 New characters (very soon)
Coming tomorrow or this weekend:

• Milca, the warthog, in her own territory

• Syla…

I won’t say more.

🌿 The story unfolds through:

• encounters

• locations

• events

⚙️ Optimization

• GPU Instancing enabled on 1500+ materials

• Performance analysis (too many draw calls)

• Material reduction in progress

🎨 Visual

• Updated Tawa’s color palette

• Improved snout and contrast

• Work on atmosphere (like the Breach above)

🧠 Goal
Create a living, mysterious… and unstable world.
