Devlog #3

And here we are again!

A lot of cool stuff happened in the last month, and as always, we are working super duper hard to finish the project and deliver to you guys a truly 90s classic platformer game but also expanding this experience with present-day features...

So here are today’s headlines...

WE ARE FINALISTS!

We have been selected as finalists in the Strasbourg Indie Game Contest that will start in the 15 of September along with the Strasbourg Film Festival! Kaze will be available to play there during the week, so if you live nearby you should definitely check it out! Other really cool games will also be available to play there so if you’re into Indie Gaming this is a really interesting event to attend!

MORE COOL FEATURES AND LEVELS

You’ll encounter some fun objects to interact within the levels. The one above (we are currently calling it the Jellyspring) will act as a “spring” that will help you jump higher and gain momentum!

And below is our sling/catapult/gearing thing(please suggest a better name for us!). This object can automatically launch Kaze reeeeally fast in its target direction. There will also be variations of this object where you can control the directions where you can go and only launch it after pressing a button!

Note that both of these are WIP assets that are subject to change and doesn’t represent the final product.

DEVELOPMENT STREAMS!

As some of you may know, we’ve created a Twitch account and are starting to stream the development process of the game. Last week’s stream was with our artist creating enemy animations!
We don’t have a fixed stream schedule yet but we’ll try to do it regularly if we feel that you guys are enjoying it! So head over to http://twitch.tv/kazewildmasks and follow us to know when the next stream happens and with that also encourage us to do more frequent streams!


Aaand that’s it for now!
