Hunt and Snare r5.27g is out now!

Snippets XXIII - Progressssss~!

Lil progress report coming up! Been a while since the last Snippet, not because work isn’t done or that development isn’t progressing, but because “end stages” of each build is largely just setting things up and it’s not a very visual process. So there isn’t much visibly new to show and screenshots would be about things already shown...

Snippets XXII - Mappers Union

Snippets XXII - Mappers Union

Comparison between Skiia (remade map) and Kizan (new island, and new map) ^^

The Kizan map is approximately the same “size” as the old Skiia map was in the map view, but Skiia map wasn’t really in “scale” with the island itself, so the new map of Skiia is made in same scale now ^^

Snippets XVIII - Jiggle jiggle

Basically this snippet is going to describe a much needed improvement to jiggles; It is now calculating and compensating for frame rate independence, instead of being dependent on the frame rate itself :3

The frame rate basically caused more jiggle to be applied to the tails the lower the frame rate was, basically it was just looking at th...

Onfe’s been busy designing and painting us some new GUI things for the future; First of which is the logbook (above, the base template for different pages).

The logbook is a long term ...

NEW PUPPY EYES BAWHG

At the same time subtle, and not so subtle changes to eye shaders. The old eye shader relied on environment giving enough reflections to make the eyes look soulful, but there were a lot of cases where it just didn’t work because there wasn’t any bright sources to reflect ^^

Well, to be honest, six means gunplay improvements right now! Above you can see some of the basic changes;

- The firing animation is now (well, next patch!) a lot less “kicky” so that it doesn’t ruin your second shot as easily.

- The smoke from firing no longer obscures your vision nearly as badly; It now basically ejects most ...

Snippets VIII - Road Ful of Furs

All fuls (foxes, for those who don’t know the in-game name for them) in game currently are just regular davh with fox colors. In short term (next build-ish) the fuls will finally get a proper davh subspecies morpher for them; That means, while they share a lot of davh features, they’ll be more fox like and will have more foxy features ^^
