Bright Walls

Summary: In which broken-stone geometry gains edging; other geometry is touched-up; chiselled, speckled stone is textured; a chamber is plated in shining gold; guardian-statues are made; some new enemy logic is begun; bug-fixes are implemented; a string-file is added; and more work on the publisher-search is done.

Greetings and salutations!

This week's screenshot shows a king's sarcophagus-chamber bright in the "reflected" light of gold-plated walls.

The week just past was a varied one, one of modelling and texture-making and logic-writing and more:

Several Stone Surfaces

Summary: In which level eight is worked on; a pebble-bed is textured; a "distance-splatting" shader is made; broken stones are added at cliff-side bases; cliff-faces are detailed; a tomb interior is begun; some footstep-sounds are made; a shader-change incurs tweaks to an extant level; and saving within a specific feature is handled.

Greetings and salutations!

This week's screenshot shows a start on an interior portion of the new level:

For the most part, the work of the week just past was given to such level-construction, with just one or two things done outside of that:

Passages

Summary: In which a mist-effect is completed; the logic for it is set in place; a level is then (more or less) done; some font-hunting is done; the customised key-binding module for the game is updated for non-English characters; a new level is begun; and a new variant-shader is put in place for the purpose of said level.

Greetings and salutations!

This week's screenshot shows a new location, a bare start on a new level:

A Key By Any Other Letter

Summary: In which a mist-feature sees further work; a window is moved; a key-mapping module is cleaned up; said key-mapping module further now supports non-English keys and non-QWERTY layouts; and some minor changes are incurred by said support.

Greetings and salutations!

This week's screenshot shows a familiar window, now offset from its previous position:

The week just past was perhaps a bit of a slow one--but nevertheless, some things did get done, include one possibly-important improvement to keyboard support:

Showing the Game

Summary: In which a gameplay video is completed; publisher-pitches are sent; the new intro is completed; the cutscene -system and -editor sees a little work; and an element of level six is progressed.

Greetings and salutations!

This week's screenshot shows another still from the new intro cutscene:

The week just past was perhaps a bit of a slow one, but I do feel that it was nevertheless somewhat productive. In particular, three salient tasks were completed!
