some payloads fire in a sustained mode
and we had the obvious idea of adding a "beer barrel" to our shotgun(haha) - as a payload
also doubles as a jetpack!

before/after
did some lighting adjustments to our levels for our steam release
turns out just cranking up your ambient lighting isn't a good way to light your levels

beam weapon
revamped my shooting code to allow for beam-like payloads so now I can do things like this, still not sure what it should do outside of combat though 🤔
(also did some sound design 🔊)

I will never forget the immense disappointment I felt when I noticed I couldn't jump on the harpoons from HL2
anyway, this is the harpoon payload, it sticks to walls and you can jump on it! I generally try to make payloads do more than just "kill enemy better"

the interact payload can do fascinating things! such as pressing a button or booping enemies

decided to have each barrel type come with their own attachments and now the weapon looks absolutely ridiculous, in a good way!
this is just at 11 barrels, current max is around 20 barrels, so far

finally got around to doing some sound design for the basic enemies in the game, now it feels even more like bullying:(

feature from a while back - you dash into boxes to launch them at whatever you're aiming at, still very happy with the feel of it

i felt that instead of using a key to open the door it's better if you load it into your gun and shoot it at the door, of course

i try to take a systematic approach, so anti-gravity ammotype affects props & debris (and the player as well!)
