Update
Added 2021-11-12 18:16:22 +0000 UTCOSX
NEW THIS RELEASE:
- A little new map content, mostly for testing purposes.
- ANMI (artificial not much intelligence), and extensively reworked path finding.
- Numerous corrections to platforms & jumping.
- Doors. These were not planned but I like them a lot.
- Save game (house right of VT, the bull with the sign).
- Skip button now works wherever it’s shown (possible bugs!)
- The player can get killed.
- 16 sounds, a little art. This thing is so hungry for art.
- Second physics / graphics layer.
- countless fixes. countless.
NEEDS:
- * New (simpler) background fill. Lags slow pcs, hard to edit.
- * Also simplify the mirror feature.
- * Inventory w/ items
- * Move saved games directory to documents folder (documents/TKP/saves) for all.
- Player’s sword should do something. Doesn't.
- Two missing introductory scenes, one needs art & the other inventory.
- Three scenes more below.
- Scene indicator. Been thinking about this for a long time.
- Torture and junk artwork, find-ables, and a hatch on the pit trap instead of a hand.
- Once all 5 save games slots are full, pressing ‘Go’ on the main menu has no effect.
- * Needs ‘esc’ menu and a button. Needs preferences (main menu 'I don’t know’ button).
- Physics clean-up, all bipeds! Dancing and bouncing are common. Damnit.
- Shadows and layers in the background are screwy in places.
Bulls:
- layers need fixing
- backwards thigh
- leather jock & harness
- deforming neck (like the player has)
Goats:
- somewhere
- some clothes? (none ready)
- also neck
So this update is mostly technical. There's no story, art or sex added. In other words, it's a complete DUD. But it had to be done. After I deal with a few of the bigger bullet points, I'll get some content in there. The background art is also looking pretty shabby, I'll see if I can get a bit of stuff in there to start breaking up that repetitious blank look. The dirt floor is crap. The rock walls I made look so bad I pulled them out.
Changes at my jobber job combined with a raccoon trashing my house contributed to delays. Next update should have some content that is more relevant to the player.
There are undoubtedly new bugs. If you notice something broken, please post and be not silent! Known already: the bull's axe shows through the wall, and one bull is entirely in front of a wall that he should be behind (on the way to the reliquary).
