patreon devlog update 89: labyrinthine

Added 2023-02-03 01:48:24 +0000 UTC

heyo peeps, i'm back to work on zap & andy since my programmer rick needed some assets for a section of the circus that we're gonna change around a bit.

so there's a point where you had to go into a mirror maze and previously we had a puzzle similar to sokoban where you had to fool mirror reflection of andy to kind of superimpose into eachother so you could clear a path to the exit.

Since that was a bit too much to program in the engine we're using , we've changed that section to be a literal maze instead of a puzzle themed around one:

you'll have to navigate a maze of mirrors floating around in the void , while being pursued by andy's reflections. Luckily the previous owner of the magic mirror used to enter this place has scrawled maps all around the labyrinth so players will get a chance to get their bearings and hopefully the thing won't be too frustrating-

rick already had ready a chasing Ai so he reused it for the reflections . It still needs a couple tweaks but it's already functional as you can see here:

also since the game is what it is and the labyrinth reflects one's darkest impulses, of course the labyrinth will be peppered with reflections not bent on fucking their original over, but in general just being the horny gremlin andy could be.

of course they'll be animated, today i managed to finish only one, but definetly expect more-

and that's it for this week peeps, apologies for the update being a bit lackluster, but having to work on my laptop is a bit uncomfortable and i couldn't do my best. Hopefully as soon as a new pc arrives i'll be able to focus a bit better!

i hope you like the update nonetheless! til next time!
