A quick video as we had a major tech breakthrough today - we finally got #Unity #ECS #DOTS working! This means we should be able to obtain our reach goal of deploying The Third Tourist to the #Steamdeck.

Candle Pouring Mini Game Prototype
YouTube video by November North Games Candle Pouring Mini Game Prototype

I made a quick video about a prototype for a mini game I made for The Third Tourist.

It's very basic atm, but we're aiming to have several mini games.

Candles will be a big part of the gameplay!

My contribution to the โ€œexpensive gamesโ€ discourse is that itโ€™s not just about graphics. As soon as your stylise and lower the fidelity, audience expectations for every other type of asset in the game go down! Itโ€™s good, actually!

Here's devlog number 3!

This time, I talk about the world design and how our requirements shaped it.

You also get a first glimpse at Bryce's house - aka player home base!

I kid you not, @itch.io has been taken down by Funko of "Funko Pop" because they use some trash "AI Powered" Brand Protection Software called Brand Shield that created some bogus Phishing report to our registrar, iwantmyname, who ignored our response and just disabled the domain

I think it will be the new "but can it run crysis" though - the spec requirements sound brutal!

We are still very excited about Indiana Jones, though!!

In this episode I share how our LOD systems came to be, how we've started building out the level, and the issues we've had with adaptive probe volumes.
