A smol sketch for a factory level.
Made it so you can wallrun and wallclimb on moving objects!! Also running and jumping off them feels nicer.

I love game dev #screenshotsaturday
And I would love to make a level about sliding up and down hills in the park. Tiny Wings style.

Redid all the moves for the trailer since we have a better looking model and some post processing now c:
Fortunately the movement didn't change *too* much
Still a lotta temp stuff in here but I'm happy with how it turned out.

Behold my IMMENSE arm strength.
(made it so you can swing on angled bars now, but if you disable the angle limit it is kinda whacky)

We have #mirrorsedge at home:
(added a side dash, air coil, landing and rolling, + a shitty version of the 1st game's speed line cylinder)
Plus temporary red guy character got a fashion upgrade!! 😎

Quick experiment inspired by @mrjackphil.bsky.social. First I tried randomly spawning balls and it was alright but it was disorienting to go back and forth.
So I tried spawning them in sequence, still with some randomness. It's ok, but I'm not the huuugest fan yet.

Feel free to show your own artisinal balls. I'd love to look at them.

One of my favourite improv routes to do!
What frustrated me in Mirrors Edge was that you could only jump off a bar straight ahead, I'm trying to give finer control to the player without making things too difficult.
Still lotsa work to do tho.

Testing out a dynamic music drop that @rinkejohannes.bsky.social prototyped. I think it's epic, maybe it's too epic? Idk.
It triggers after you've been playing 'cool' enough and do a big jump.

(P.S. You'll need sound for this one)

Some very WIP landing states and animations! Next up, rotating the camera when you roll.
We made a simple system to control whether the camera follows the head bone during landing animations, in most situations we'd rather have more control over the camera shakes!

A lil' stylish parkour LOOP! Just for fun, the first 12 seconds might be my new favourite route in the level.
Next I'd like to add some landing rolls/slaps. Aerial rolls/flips too, if I can figure out how to do it without making ppl puke.

Speed vaulting! And the hands IK!! Pretty placeholder but it makes it way more satisfying.
I would also like to make more vault variations that you can perform based on mouse movement and vault height.
