I m making a game where a cat delivers a goodbye letter to his longtime cat friend who is moving away with his human. I decided to make the cat drive a makeshift cardboard car that he made at home and that breaks over time as the stakes get higher and the time runs out.

What I did since last devlog…

• Created the entire terrain world to drive on (including a huge cliff near the center!) AND THEN RECREATED THE WHOLE THING AFTER IT GOT DELETED AND CORRUPTED BY GITHUB SOMEHOW

• Added Fog and the sky

• Got drifting working with tire trails

• Added log cabins (you spawn at one and try to make it to the other where you cat friend is!)

• Modeled the cats, location icon and navigation arrow

• Implemented navigation arrow that directs you to the destination

• Tweaked Driving

• Created the main menu, win and lose screens

• Make the name title thing (logo)

• Added music

• and a buncha other things

GMTK GAME JAM!

Devlog 1! 

I have not touched game dev for like a year, but for some reason I decided to sign up for the GMTK Game Jam!

I m making a game where a cat delivers a goodbye letter to his longtime cat friend who is moving away with his human. I decided to make the cat drive a makeshift cardboard car that he made at home and that breaks over time as the stakes get higher and the time runs out.

So far, I have gotten a suspension car working to drive, steer and drift! I also added a arcade timer to the UI! Most of my time was spent bugfixing the suspension car as I have never done any 3d physics stuff before. I also modeled a makeshift cardboard car for the cat and some tires. Finally I added a cool pixelated effect that makes the game super arcadey!

Check out some drifting!
