Here is this weeks video, I recorded each day going over all the stuff I did to build my game for the #brackeysgamejam last week. Stiched it all together and here it is.

Getting that cold really did mess up my plans, but I still learnt alot. Cant wait for the next one.😄

Brackey game jam 2025.1 submission. up on itch. Submitting about 8 hours before the deadline. Its 3:50am over here and I am not going to take the risk of waking up in the morning to my internet being down or something.
Hope everyone had a good time making games. 👍

Clear the path of hazards, so your oblivious owner can make it home.

Todays update, still feeling rough from the cold but I got the first level set up, made a song for background music and added in the win and loss screens. Deadline is fast approching and still so much to do 😱

Day 5. Managed to create a barebones main menu, gave the NPC a mesh with a walking animation and programed a crate that can drop axes.
Don't forget to make and test a build of whatever you are submitting. Some errors only show up in the build version and not the editor. 👍

Not a very productive day today, I appear to have caught a cold or something. I at least got the rat hazard sorted out and ready. Got a lot to do over the next few days. How is everybody else doing?

Day 3, added interactions between the player, axe and cuttable tree, also added two animations. A bark and a headbutt. Feel like I was a bit less productive today. Ah well, thats for future Michael to deal with. 😅

Second day of working on the game jam, didn't get much programming done today. Time slipped away from me while I was 3D modeling. 😅

This weeks video is uploaded, after some crashing issues from da vinci resolve. I made the weapon systems for my helicopter enemy. Shooting rockets and a beam particle effect.

If all goes well next weeks video should be a recap of the game jam im taking part in this week.

Decided to split my helicopter enemy programming video into two parts. So I could stick to a one a week upload schedual. 3 for 3 weeks so far.😄
This first video covers mostly the movement of the helicopter along with adding some tilt and sway to make it more interesting.

Created a low poly helicopter in blender that I plan to use as one of the enemies in my game. I think its a bit too boxy 🤔

Here's a reminder to back up your work. I just lost hours of editing because I made the rookie mistake of not backing it up 😄

I made a video showing how to export from Blender into Unity and I show the code used to trigger said animation after its all been set up.
