Made statues that shoot poisonous gas! They will appear on the third level of our game, adding some environmental dangers you'll need to dodge.
Btw you can push the gas particles with explosions - will help a lot in battles!
Our first game, Rat Run, turns 1 year old today! π
We learned so much making it - and now all of that knowledge is going into making our next game even better.
Happy Birthday, Rat Run! ππ¨π§
@GameMakerEngine Working on our roguelike shooter Rodent Company!
Today I added animated revival countdown for players (or "unfainting" considering that our characters are not dying here actually).
Been making it in GameMaker since late 2023
Improving hero fainting (basically the moment when you get defeated by enemies) by adding some details:
- A short flash of red with some contrast increase
- Screen shake

@kerikercia Than you! We appreciate your interest! We are a team of two: there's Nadya - she's responsible for our art; and there's me - I'm covering everything else. As for the platforms, we've got a youtube channel (https://t.co/yja9ZJlR44) and we regularly post stuff on Reddit
Added a new level - announcing animation. All of the interface stuff gets visible after it. What do you think about the length of the animation? Or in general?
