Back to projects after Scream Jam 2021

Hello, everyone!

Last week we finished Puppet Manor for the Scream Jam 2021 and now I am back and working already on my multiple projects as always!

So this time, I have an update for all of them 🙂

Is This Still Tennis

For Is This Still Tennis we had been toying around and trying to make it as fun as possible. We decided to make big changes to how we were thinking the gameplay and tried out an invisible level system for the user. The enemies will come in waves but the player won’t have those tedious pauses where he has to click to continue to the next level, he will just go through.

Apart from this, we added two new changes for the enemies. Now the enemies will have a life bar on top that will work as progress in the battle for the player and let him know how much is left.

The other update is that now the enemies can fire random types of projectiles. So sometimes you will have a simple rock getting thrown at you but later you will have to hit a rock with a swing effect.

With these changes, we plan to give the game more variety to the feel, have something to build on for the feeling of gradual difficulty, and make it more fun to play. We aren’t sure yet if this is the way but it already feels a lot better than before.

Pyroscape 4

Quick update because I don’t want to spoil too much about the escape room 😛

I had been working on the escape room by linking the rooms with their functionality. I have almost finished but still, have a bit to do. Once it is done, the player will be able to interact with the rooms as in previous Pyroscape games!

Summer Snow Day

Regarding Summer Snow Day we don’t have too much to show off yet. Though we had all the scripts for chapter 4 and we are adding them to the game and linking the sprites and characters to the dialogues.

I personally have a great time reading the scripts once they are finished because I am really enjoying the plot so far. I think I talk for the whole team when I say we can’t wait to show it to the public but we still have a lot to do in order to deliver the high quality we are aiming for!

Wrapping up!

I am still also working on other small projects but more in a prototype way. If they are fun, I am looking forward to showing them to you!

Other than that, that will be everything, for now, stay tuned for more updates, and don’t forget to follow me on Twitter!

Thank you for reading 😀
