patreon devlog update 59: mirror mirror

heyo peeps! while rick and al are on the three introductory minigmaes , this week i've tried to finish the assets for the mirror maze puzzle.

After andy's reflections and the general background were done all that was left to do was the grid on wich andy will have to move to reach the end of the maze (of course had to animate a bit the entry and exit points.)

the gist of the mirror puzzle ...

not much to show about fenris high this week

banana inquiry is having some trouble with some nasty bugs  so not much on the front of programming, and i kind of overestimated how long it would take to make a whole set of walking cycles for george ( i mostly blame his kilt's pattern). So yeah, all i could manage to do is finish that this week.

i'm sorry lately i've been mostly posting walk cycles. They're really boring and time consumi...

Patreon devlog update 58: through the looking glass

now that most of the assets for the initial minigames are done, i decided it might come in handy to work for stuff that we're still deciding on.  We do know there'll be a mirror maze puzzle with evil shades of andy chasing after him, yet we don't know the specifics of said puzzle. But we do know the doppelgangers will be there, so i started animating a walk cycle for each:

another dusk acres pause next week(+ some requests)

ehh...what's new, at this point. Apologies, but the comic's pressure is getting a bit intense and i think it would be beneficial for everyone if i took a week off every two updates on the regular. 

speaking of wich, another thing that would help immensely would be how the comments are given. I enjoy a lot reading the complex descriptions that almost read like storyes in the comments, but in terms of using them to create a unified narrative, it's a bit much. 

what i'd ask...

patreon devlog update 57: bad men with canes

yeaah... seems like i'm kind of runnign out of things to draw for z&a again. Now that the assets for the minigames are done and a lot of other stuff is already drawn and animated all that's left for me to do is wait for more of the finalized storyline to be done, and that seems to be taking a bit. I might have to stop with z&a updates again to let the code & writing to catch up , in wich case i might do something else on thursday, but i still haven't decided what yet.

Anyway...

WEDNESDAY 7 a.m.

here we go! sorry for the slight delay!

Fenris high devlog update 35

heyo peeps, we're still hard at work adding and refining stuff to the first day after meek started writing for us, and of course banana inquiry is still implementing stuff and squashing bugs so we can have something playable as soon as possible. As for me , Binq asked me for a 260x260 logo to use as an icon for the executable,so i provided! 

speaking about statuesque wolves, i realized i h...

No zap & andy update today

not much to post this week, i spent most of yesterday exporting the animations for the fishing minigame, and only managed to do a couple of Walk cycles for the other circus members...i’ll show them to you guys next week when i have hopefully more material, apologies!

WEDNESDAY 6 a.m. [3]

patreon devlog update 56: whip it good

eh, what can you do, there are times in developing a game where you don't have things that are particularly interesting or new to show people, but that are equally important to give a sense of polish to the project.

This week i bring to you the amazing spectacle of... bubbles?

these are indicators for fishing spots in the fishing minigame, and they go from most visible to barely there to indicate what tier of fishes you can get from them.

so for example the low tier fishes (...

taking yet another break from DA this week

i'm trying not to make this a habit, having two weeks of updates and one week of break,but i have to admit my mood and general health seem to have improved thanks to this so i dunno. Nonetheless this week i'm also planning on doing something extra so i need the time. Apologies to those who were counting on having the update this week, things will resume normally on the tenth!

Fenris high devlog update 35

heyo pups here we are with another update on the progress of fenris high! i'm happy to announce that now anothermeekone is also working with us, helping us out with the story ! thanks to him we sped up considerably in terms of finishing up the design document and the story beats! 

on the graphics side, this week we put another piece of furniture in the library, but it's not any ordinary piece of furniture, it's a whole freaking whale skeleton!

patreon devlog update 55: fish dicks

heyo peeps, new week, new update! i'm happy to say the whole shebang with the minigames is almost over, i've almost completed all the assets and only minor stuff that i can knock out quickly are left.

for the actual fishing part, andy needed a fail animation if you aren't able to catch your prey:

and when you do catch it, i though a little zelda like animation to show off what kind of thi...

patreon devlog update 54: catch of the day

heyo peeps! we' re still working hard on the minigames for the start of the circus ,of course, but we're making fast progress. Rick has moved on the shooting minigame and now we can keep track of the shots fired by the damned : 20 shots , after wich he loses the game and you win, given you have at least one duck intact

the game also of keeps track of how many ducks you have left, and after they...

Fenris high devlog update 34

 another week another update for fenris high! On the programming and  planning side for things we're currently discussing and hammering down some details that were previously a bit hazy, but now we're making good progress on that!

on the graphics side...magic! this week i spent most of my time drawing various spell effects for the game.

First, i have a basic flame spell, because what wizard would call himself one without being able to summon this element. Watch out for y...

Patreon devlog update 53:row row row your boat

heyo peeps, this part of the game is sure taking a lot of time to finish heh ^_^' we didn't exactly expect this, as the minigames are supposed to be fairly quick, but well, making look and play good is probably take a bit more effort than your average run of the mill shenanigans, not only because of the amount of spritework they need, but  also because AGS isn't technically made for this kind of things? anyways, Rick has implemented most graphics for the second minigame and the first one...

taking another break from dusk acres this week

i apologize again peeps,  but i have to take another break from the comic this week. Last time was a bit rough on my health ( had something like five days of migraines while i was working) and i think it'd be best if i ease it down for this week, in case it's something stress related. Hopefully this won't be a regular thing and i can keep updating the comic every week. Thanks a lot for your patience peeps and again, apologies!

patreon devlog update 53: fine tuning things

heyo peeps, this week on zap & andy i could finally work with a written script for the first part of the third level, so i had a couple tasks for it laid out for me wich helped a lot. First i finished the background work for the fishing minigame, wich consists of a small part of the lethe river in front of the circus, where andy will move around with his boat.

the level also asked for Bitos...

Not much to show for fenris high this week, apologies.

we had to spend some time organizing ourselves with the assets we have, and fixing stuff that didn’t quite work, so there’s not much we can show off this week unfortunately. We’ll let you peeps know as soon as there’s more visible progress! Apologies again, but that’s just how gamedev is sometimes ^_^’

patreon devlog update 52: the price of failure

heyo peeps, how it's going? this week i started working on the third and final minigame, the lethe fishing one! we're thinking it'll be something between the hades fishing minigame and the stardew valley one, but it's all up in the air for now. Nonetheless, i started working on the bg. It's going to be a big one, so for now i just have a WIP to show you.

meanwhile, rick finished most of the wor...

TUESDAY 10 p.m.

sorry for the late update ! >_>

patreon devlog update 51: rigged

so,  i asked rick to take some footage of his work on his first minigame, and i ahve to say, i can't complain so far! it won't be long till it is fully playable, looks like!

so while he's on that i took some time to finish the assets for the second minigame of the third level.

all it needed was andy's animations, the duck target getting shot and some win and losing conditions:

...

no dusk acres this week guys, apologies.

sorry for taking another week off like this after only just two weeks of regular updates, but i've been in a bit of a funk these days... i think i'm getting better tho so next week everything should go back to normal. Thanks for your patience in advance peeps, you've been awfully kind to me so far and i don't intend to let you down! 

Fenris high devlog update 33
