[FPS] Zortch 2: Zortch Harder

mutantleg · 2024-08-01T20:00:09Z

(also formerly known as the Zortch expansion pack) in the previous game Zortch has escaped from the planet of the Brainsuckers and after a short trip in her new spaceship she falls onto a desert planet due to an accident with microwave popcorn she now finds herself in a conflict between the natives of the planet the human settlers and a bizzare cybernetic cult that worships mites ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Links: devlog of the first game the first game youtube version of the devlog (this is Zortch btw) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- a lot has happened since the release of the first game (about a year ago) things got crazy, the game got a lot of fans it featured in many yt channels 😵 (of course compared to the big players like HROT or Ultrakill, Zortch is still just a speck 🤭) I made a lot of patches and drunk on confidence started working on an expansion pack.. it only meant to be a map pack with a few new things and then I realised that the engine is not up for it so I rewrote a few things to make it extendable and then things got out of hand 😓 I still insist on calling it an expansion pack however as I don't have any better ideas (let's just settle with sequel) most of the devlog has already started in a short youtube video format this time but as the original had it's devlog on itch.io I felt bad not having one here as well I'm much less organized nowadays and sometimes just end up posting devlogs to friends or any poor soul that comes across 😓

just a quick update (8 days this time if anyone is keeping score)

redrawn some old door textures - nothing really exciting about that

modelled this low poly bomb for one of the bosses

rebaked the prison guard - as I got a lot better at baking thing since the start of the project  🤔

here is a screenshot from the prison level

it's coming along nicely - only thing is I wanted to be at this stage 1 year ago  😓

if you blast a guard its legs just keep on walking around like this 🤔

any resemblance between the guard robots and the robots in LAB are pure coincidence  👀

not quite sure why I insist on this design tbh 🤔

anyway that is it for now
it's all map building, polishing, and figuring out what to cut from now
this year is a race to the finish  🤔

until next time 👋
