One more thing to show for a while enjoy.

A powerup, so that you can get the DNA points, plus it's satisfying to watch them all come flying in at your location.

Programming Takes a while, but here's what I have so far for a boss...

It still needs a lot of work, but I'm posting stuff over winter break, so minor victories and all.

I DID IT!

I created a video game from scratch and uploaded it to steam before starting my first year at university.

I'm so proud of myself, and though I still have a lot to learn, I did accomplish something I've always wanted to do.

Visuals got updated thanks to @marcushimself.bsky.social

Now there's clouds, rain, and heat.

Makes the game look far better, which I think really helps wraps up the whole project as makes it nice.

Nearly 20 months of coding this game and almost 3 years of learning game development I have my first ever Steam page.

I am so proud of myself for this, plus it's just super awesome to have done this.

Here it is with a background, because I still want to improve my landscape drawing skills, I think this looks 100% better than the last one I did.

So, I'll be sure to use these characters one day, but until then I'm happy with the Steampunk Western.

The game isn't done yet, but I do have the credits finished

There is NO REASON to watch this video, I'm just posting it because I haven't posted anything in a while

TADA the first boss is artistically finished, the mechanical serpent. Thanks to @marcushimself.bsky.social for help on the visuals for this boss.

I really like this one, it's based on the Horned Lake Serpent myth, and a waterwheel.

Look a background.

No longer stuck in the void, everything is much more vibrant now that's not just the basic test scene grey.

Still a lot of work to do, but I'm making GREAT progress.

Hope you have a great day random person reading this

Just finished readding Basic Drones for Hot Shot Monkey

One step closer to being all caught up again

I have made a slight change, now Basic Drones spawn in with 1 of 3 different gun variants, should add a bit more challenge and variety to the game.

Font changes. I think the new font looks nicer and adds a more western vibe. I'm mostly just doing some small tweaks here and there for now.

(Ignore the outfit I was just testing save data)

Have a great day.

New enemy sprites, that are more robotic, also certain drones now have a pool of images to draw from.

Also, a new arena soundtrack, credits go to Zap Splat.

I'm happy with the reintroduction of the Wild West theme. I will update the demo soon as well.

Got the Jungle Shop mostly set up today.

I think the music goes great with it and the new buddy variant is just funny to me

Added dialogue sounds, no longer will it be boring text just appearing, and a little sign to tell you when the line is finished.

Plus, I set up a little shop for testing and it will be in the next Demo Update, so keep an eye out for that.

So you could fix it? Because I gave it a quick try in a test project and with a normal collider and it looks not like the behaviour in your game.

Hard to say without checking it out. You know like tweaking values, seeing what is going one, the usual :D I'm not even sure what I'm looking at. I would assume the cone is a Rigidbody with some custom collision shape. Really hard to say from just watching a video.
