We need more of these devlogs where all the gamedevs get a say in it. It's super cool to see different people's responsibilities and workflows, amazing video!
for preston: I recomend following blender gurus most recent donut tutorial for learning blender, ik it has nothing to do with the low poly stuff you have to do, but it helps A LOT to get used to the program, and know what you are doing well enough to get started modeling your own stuff.
Love the work you guys ❤️ The quality and work that goes into your games is amazing, especially for how small the community is, very excited for this new game
hi, you should change the color of the worm to green (for example) because it looks too much like the deity you worship. and it’s not clear why part of your boss is crawling through the forest and trying to kill you
An example in the beginning Elijah doesn't like bones so a dissecting bones mini game maybe like bully 1 made by rockstar i don't remember which class but u can search bully all classes and get the general idea
quick tip for the visuals. i dont know if the game has been released already but for future reference, what helps make the graphics feel more authentically retro is a lack of lighting. PS1 hardware limitations didnt allow for dynamic lighting, so the scenes were all unlit textures. instead, the shadows were drawn on like ambient occlusion, in most cases done dynamically scene to scene to reuse image textures by using vertex colours multiplied onto the original texture. this way you can tile textures or reuse a texture but its light level varries based on its surroundings, and its prebaked within the system. at the time doing this dynamically for procedural generation wouldnt have existed, but since we have the technology to do so and more, its entirely viable.
Love the idea! Might I suggest some pros/cons for day-night cycle? Like make it in such a manner were players won't just wait out till day to play. Maybe like day has better visibility however you have to be weary of forest rangers for example. Maybe some items (pocket watch hidden in a bush?) that would shine during the day from being hit by sunlight, but be very hard to find at night, etc. Basically I suggest making it a manner were a player is incentivized to play both during day and night with each cycle's respective pros and cons. Best of luck!
I saw this video and was like "hey im also making a detective/cop horror game, i wonder how similar they are going to be?" Then after like 45 seconds i'm like "oh shit, that was not what i was expecting, and it is not even close to what im making, other than the fact that the player is looking for aomething in both games
Eyo! Awesome game idea, I love the idea of looking at an object and trying to find a clue within it to figure out whoever it belongs to. I thought that it would be cool that instead of a dot animation the player can actually look at the object, rotate it in 3d space and trying to find the label, signiture and stuff like that. Just an idea! I love the visual so far, I just dont really like the models of the targets and pit chanters, not because they are bad on its own, just the proportions are so different that it looks out of place. Will be looking forward to new dev vlogs!
Very unique idea, it would be cool if there were levels with more populated areas so you have to plan out when to take out your target and stalk them as to not be seen by other people
you are my enemy(I'm joking ) I like your approach to the idea, I'm working in horror game too with Detective elements but I'm playing with architecture instead of tress and it's just a short and simple game . the game named "Milk Carte " btw .
Did you guys go through different game ideas before deciding on this one? I'm having a HUGE problem of working on one idea, switching to another one, getting bored, switching to another one, etc x 1000

My name is Yoshikage Kira. I'm 33 years old. My house is in the northeast section of Morioh, where all the villas are, and I am not married. I work as an employee for the Kame Yu department stores, and I get home every day by 8 PM at the latest. I don't smoke, but I occasionally drink. I'm in bed by 11 PM, and make sure I get eight hours of sleep, no matter what. After having a glass of warm milk and doing about twenty minutes of stretches before going to bed, I usually have no problems sleeping until morning. Just like a baby, I wake up without any fatigue or stress in the morning. I was told there were no issues at my last check-up. I'm trying to explain that I'm a person who wishes to live a very quiet life. I take care not to trouble myself with any enemies, like winning and losing, that would cause me to lose sleep at night. That is how I deal with society, and I know that is what brings me happiness. Although, if I were to fight I wouldn't lose to anyone.
My name is Brennan. Many people call me a worm. So maybe I’m the worm. Maybe the worm’s name is Brennan.
If they actually name the worm Brennan that would be funny

This is super cool!!

Loving the detective gameplay loop, i'm super interested to see how that plays out :)

I’ll make sure I give that a look, thank you! -Preston
@@CuriousFoxSox np
This is looking awesome so far! Excited to see how it shapes up in all the future devlogs
Name the worm Jimothy or Squimble and I will love this game forever
It's similar to Feed Me Billy from Puppet Combo. It's cool to see a sort of spiritual successor to the Puppet Combo game.
Thought about that game when he was describing the concept
This is such a fun way to do a devlog!!
Love the work you guys ❤️

This looks very promising!! I can't wait to play it!!! And i love the fact that you guys are planning to make more devlogs for us to watch!!
Here’s a name suggestion for that worm: Vermon, the forest scourge
Love how this is looking!
I also have a few name ideas for the worm.
Henry The Worm, Oscar Thy Worm, & just Felix.
definitely mini games to do in the cult hideout maybe u can make add dark theme mini games or fun both is fine is a nice balance
An example in the beginning Elijah doesn't like bones so a dissecting bones mini game maybe like bully 1 made by rockstar i don't remember which class but u can search bully all classes and get the general idea
This game looks awesome!
Yall. I love backpack mechanics. So excited to back then pack.
The vid "Reinventing Minecraft world generation by Henrik Kniberg"
might help for terrain generation code if you are still looking to improve it.
this looks great i love when devs do devlogs so i can see in there mind
Always love to see new devlogs on RUclips. Very excited to see how this game turns out
this looks epic! good job :D
i think u should add leaf moving on tree wind physics and some leafs falling
How strange that your hypothetical at the beginning described my weekend with 98% accuracy

Love the style and idea for the game, love the partnership to😊
Elijah and the worm monster look alike, so perhaps the worm monsters are offsprings of Elijah!!
Best game dev intro I have seen so far ☉Ô☉ !!
this game would go so hard in multiplayer
13:41 mr mc wiggles
Dafuq u mean u were the director of poppy playtime???
Yep, he is credited as the director for r poppy playtime!
Detective side reminds me of the boardgame 'Guess Who?' a bit.
This game seems so fun cant wait for the next devlog

The worm reminds me of Dune. The pit also reminds me of Star Wars.
A devlog from a whole team, whose had experience launching games before. What is this sorcery!!
unironically the programmer's devtips may be the best development tips ive ever heard in 4 years of game developing
I saw this video and was like "hey im also making a detective/cop horror game, i wonder how similar they are going to be?" Then after like 45 seconds i'm like "oh shit, that was not what i was expecting, and it is not even close to what im making, other than the fact that the player is looking for aomething in both games
The name Elijah is very weird name for a demonic monster when it has quite the opposite meaning
You should add a super cool guy with 0 flaws in the game named Joseph. Just a random thought.

13:39 The Titan Worm
this game looks amazing, I can't wait to play it for 3 seconds til I get scared and cry! name idea for the worm, jerma985
please make a lake and add a monster like the loch ness monster
Maybe the worm is a segment of the pit youre feeding
just 30 secs into and im already sold (and subscribed)
Very unique idea, it would be cool if there were levels with more populated areas so you have to plan out when to take out your target and stalk them as to not be seen by other people
The worm should be named "Luke" in reference to the Indie game dev "Luke DaWorm"
this sounds like a cool looking game looking forward to more devlogs
aint this just puppet combos feed me billy
you are my enemy(I'm joking ) I like your approach to the idea, I'm working in horror game too with Detective elements but I'm playing with architecture instead of tress and it's just a short and simple game . the game named "Milk Carte " btw .
This devlog was so cool
This videos was so entertaining! Can't wait to see more videos from you guys!
I’m very interested in the development of this game!!!
Looking forward to more!
I love the gameplay and art style please finish it
6:02 ah yes, I love spawing objects

13:41 The Vacuum
Looks really cool,cant wait to play it!
This sounds very interesting... Good Luck!
There's already a fully 3D detective roguelike that may be of interest to you:
*_Shadows of Doubt_*
Names for the monsters:
1) Clive
2) Bob
3) John
4) Jay
5) Alex
for the pit is a wonderful name for the game pls dont change it
looks interesting
this looks good but i think you might want more things than a forest like a small town
