The Entropy Movement Update

So, I had plans to release the beta for the Entropy Movement today. However, looking back at my "to-do" list before I released the beta, I haven't really finished very much on it.

Things to do before beta is released:

  1. Create suitable opening sequence for demo
  2. Create suitable ending sequence for demo
  3. Make basic menu
  4. Create and place savepoints
  5. Finish up "prisoner conversation sequence"
  6. Create dying sequence
  7. Polish health and energy usage
  8. Polish up sound design



However, I did a lot of stuff which wasn't on the list, like adding an awesome grenade launcher, polishing up the level design and AI, fixing a lot of bugs, and added about a dozen pages to the design document detailing characters, locations, and enemies.

Summer Projects

 As of right now, I only have two more days of school, and then I will have two and a half months to work on some awesome projects.

Super Secret Collab
Right now, I'm helping Liam Berry out with a project. I don't want to say too much, but I really like the direction it is going. Also, working with someone else on a game is a very nice change of pace from having to do everything myself.

The Entropy Movement

















I'm also still working on The Entropy Movement (formerly titled Cyber Odyssey). Progress has been swell, and since I've been working on it for over a year now, I thought I would do some beta testing. If you're interested be sure to let me know (through a comment, email, twitter, etc...). A list of things I need to do before I release the beta is here. The estimated release date is on the 21, so if you're interested let me know soon.

Legos?
I thought I might as well do something with the massive amount of legos I have sitting around. I thought this would be a good project to pursue. It's fairly simple single shot lego gun. No clip or semi-automatic fire at all, so I thought it would be a good starting point. After that I can move onto more advanced projects.

I will also be updating the blog a lot more frequently over this summer, so stay tuned for more updates!
