Posted by FelixBlobDev - August 29th, 2021


Hi again, back with another update. Not much to say, but I did a little more on Solarblade again.

Weekly Gamedev Updates

I've been working on Solarblade again. First, I made a bunch of new decorations and tiles, such as flowers!

Some are unique to the forest, aka Terga Woods:

I also improved the games shadows a little, and implemented cloudy weather:

With improvement to shadows, also comes darkness! This will be very useful for places like dungeons and dark environments. Maybe even for night time, too.

Sol also now has animated idle states now, instead of a single frame like before. The simplicity of the earlier idle animations worked fine, but I wanted to do more for the game's animations and I think this looks good!

And on the topic of animations, I have also fixed up part of the games intro, and created an unique animation for Sol during it.

Lastly, have some random screenshots I took of the weather system in action, inside a test level:

That's all I got for Solarblade this week, but I also added this to my released game (Super Gear Quest), as someone requested it. A screenshake setting:

It's not too special, but someone wanted it, so I wanted to add it at some point. I haven't updated SGQ with this yet either, but the feature has been implemented.
