Poll - reworked blind drake or something else
🕑 Added 2023-07-06 18:29:05 +0000 UTCBack with another poll! Before getting into that, quick development update to keep you all in the loop - I've been finally able to work on the first new enemy the game has gotten since the addition of the minimech pilots, being the alien serpent! Redfrog was kind enough to do all the base animations for this enemy a while back, and I finally have the opportunity to get it into the game. The last couple weeks has been cleaning up and adjusting its animations for consistency - though I've been a bit slowed up by family events and farmwork, so this took a bit longer than it should have. Next will come the code, which as I've stated won't be nearly as big of an ordeal now that I have a prebuilt framework in place to work with. I'll have to do some tweaking to the player's vore system since this serpent enemy will count as 2 full prey and the system needs to be able to account for differently sized prey, but while this will be tedious, it shouldn't be too complicated. Once that and the lighting system is complete I'll have another beta build ready!
On to the poll:
At present, the blind drake has been removed from the game due to still needing an ENTIRE new set of sprites for its rework, as well as a more in depth code overhaul than the rest of the enemies (it's going to have a lot more attacks and features) - I can't put the old version back in presently as the old code in it will conflict with the newer systems and cause the game to crash.
The poll is would you rather the Blind Drake rework be the focus of the next beta build (after the coming one with the serpent and lighting system), or something different - between new levels/side rooms, finishing the player sprite rework, or adding more melee/platforming/shooting capabilities?
Teir 4 extra vote poll to follow! The poll will be open until friday the 28th.
