Timelapse of a game day in #Toychester, our shop #Tycoon game. Here we're testing customer/donation rate curves - as there's all sorts of other activities to be doing as well as keeping your customers happy!

@TenebrisGame Amazing art work! I absolutely love the armour, has a real "heavy set" to it. Helmet looks great too.. always the key component for me and you nailed it. I look forward to seeing more!

@LeachStudios Really nice work! I particularly like the backdrop, really adds a sense of foreboding!

What's Perish Song about?

Started work on the new more flexible and fun Build Mode! #UnrealEngine really does make creating UIs and stable physics so easy.

@Whisker_Games_ Thanks for hosting once again! Made some good progress on a new build mode this week.. though much of the time was spent making parkour courses out of blocks! Ha.

@devsanddorks Got a decent amount of time working on the game this week, so started a new fun and flexible build mode! Basically we've spent too much time building crazy parkour runs than shops.. but that'll come next!

@MerkGamesStudio Looks great! Love the greyscale effect, really makes it clear. Like others have said, being a fraction slower would be good I think.

This is the first I'm seeing of the game, it looks incredible! Really well done.

[Toychester 📦 @ToychesterGame]

@ABULABSINC This looks really nice! I've not heard about the game before, what type of thing are you aiming for? Like a 2D Elite/X?

[Toychester 📦 @ToychesterGame]

@Vimanaware Looking so good! Love those camera shake effects, really add impact.

@genso_0 This looks great! It's really starting to come alive. Is this part of a larger project or self contained?

[Toychester 📦 @ToychesterGame]

@micro_prose @Why485 Bought! Downloading now, I can't wait to pl... download done! Bye!

@ProgOrion Where have they got the keys from? Is it ones that you've sent out to reviewers/etc. and they have then "sold it on"?

We're a long way from reaching this point, but it's all good stuff to learn about!

[Toychester 📦 @ToychesterGame]

@fredymoshjuega We just watched this with the kids today! They loved it.. lots of slapstick and a wonderfully bright and interesting world!

[Toychester 📦 @ToychesterGame]

@Whisker_Games_ For me it's the problem solving of turning ideas into reality, then refining those ideas and solutions to produce a great end result.

There's never two days alike.. one day I'm modelling, the next I'm coding, the next I'm desiging user-interfaces, then I'm recording sounds, etc.

[Toychester 📦 @ToychesterGame]

@KirtOlson That's exactly how I bugfix!! Really nice, love the models, textures, animations, sounds.. basically everything!

[Toychester 📦 @ToychesterGame]

@genso_0 This is really nice! At some point I'm going to be developing a similar system. We have customers who come into the shop, and we need to manage things letting people leave through the doorway before they enter. At the moment they slam into each other until someone wins!

[Toychester 📦 @ToychesterGame]

Big refactoring, and a long #powercut due to #StormEunice, means we've not got a great deal to show this #screenshotsaturday... but I did fix a bug where donations were overlapping!

@rejschaap @Nothke Agreed! Personally I always specify the digit after the decimal point, even if its 0, as it just looks cleaner to me.

@TheSpaceshipper The ship designs throughout are incredible, but they absolutely knocked it out of the park with these.
