Going Underground


Something’s Happening Here Today

The biggest improvement is that now you can go into the levels inside the sky island. Currently they’re made with the cellular automata builder from Malwoden. I like how it looks, but the results are not very reliable. Sometimes I get a completely open island, sometimes I get nothing but corridors. I’ll have to go deeper on this.

Other Improvements

  • Basic bump combat! Smash your foes to bits with your body!
  • Better AI! Rats are afraid of everything else, so they run away. A new monster, the ooze, just wants to kill.
  • Bloodstains when something dies
  • A game log, so you can tell what’s happening
  • Explore mode, where you can pan around the map and see information.
  • A sort of auto-explore (you have to hold down O to auto-explore for now, need to work out how to get the player to do mutltple actions)

To Do

  • Random names
  • Items/Equipment
  • Mouse support
