Polishing, yeah!


Hi guys! We're here with some more exciting news from Grave Rave. Since we are in the middle of polishing the game, we are no longer allowed to add features. This means there will be no more added features only updates and tweaks of existing ones. So here goes:

Long awaited menu art

For quite some time now we have been using the ugly programmer art UI, we finally gave it an upgrade to fit with the rest of the scene. We actually have a ton more UI art yet to implement. But most of it is actually already finished. Like for example the Health bar art. 


We are really happy with this result,  there still needs to be some animations on the UI but from a design perspective it is finished.

The way events happen

For quite some time now events have been in the game, we announced them here, but the way we wanted these events to happen wasn't really that clear so we put them in as a pickup. 

But as time continued we noticed it wasn't that fun actually and people didn't really know what was happening so we rethought the use of events and we have finalised they're implementation. 


From now on the events will happen every 30 seconds (30 seconds for now, we will probably tweak the value depending on the feedback) it will show in the left hand corner how many seconds before the next event and when it has only 3 seconds left, the explanation and a big timer on screen will show what is going to happen.

Statues

We've had some small complaints about the giant white blocks in the middle, they are used to make the zombies find a decent path and they needed a real mesh to get integrated in the game forever. So we made them into small statues of all the characters you can play. 


Sorry for the bad picture but you get the idea. ;-)

Two more weeks

We got the 29 of may as a deadline for this project but as you can see most of it is finished. We just need some cool camera shakes, particles / music, post processing, UI art implementation... Well seems like we know what to do! We thank all of you for staying with us through all of this, we will give you one more and final update with the official and complete release of Grave Rave in two weeks!

Group 12 out!
