r5.27h Changelist:
We sneaked in a small update to it too, with some small extras that were requested between then and now, like bigger maximum crew size (because kizan and ful kinda over crowded it) and a few bug fixes that escaped us earlier! ^^

Above is a gif showing some selector clickings. It’ll shuffle tails too, and Ful will be available in the next build properly. There’ll be more pattern options of course, but it’s showing the default one in the gif ^^
Above is one of the new NPCs on Kizan, she runs the Dancing Ferns tavern/inn; Basically Kess’ equivalent on Kizan, except not at all like Kess. Only functionally the same x)

Lil progress report coming up! Been a while since the last Snippet, not because work isn’t done or that development isn’t progressing, but because “end stages” of each build is largely just setting things up and it’s not a very visual process. So there isn’t much visibly new to show and screenshots would be about things already shown which would be a bit boring I think ^^

Comparison between Skiia (remade map) and Kizan (new island, and new map) ^^
The Kizan map is approximately the same “size” as the old Skiia map was in the map view, but Skiia map wasn’t really in “scale” with the island itself, so the new map of Skiia is made in same scale now ^^
(Same images in larger quality on Imgur, might be more readable there https://imgur.com/a/NwQNryP)
Currently working on intro cinematic screens. The player character is represented fully in the cinematic screens, so in this case it’s my black and yellow lizard but for you it would be the character you started the game w...

Above you can see a quick presentation on a mod uploader for Steam Workshop. It’ll be inside the game itself, so you can easily test your mod and then upload the mod directly to Steam Workshop ^^
The visual look of the uploader is still largely wip, but functionality is basically showcased there, except for ability to require specific mods to function, e.g in case of character mods usin...

Above is showcasing the temporary “travel” between islands. Eventually it’ll be replaced, but till we get to it, that’s basically how it’ll go so that we can introduce new islands before the actual sailing gameplay is a thing ^^

Basically this snippet is going to describe a much needed improvement to jiggles; It is now calculating and compensating for frame rate independence, instead of being dependent on the frame rate itself :3
The frame rate basically caused more jiggle to be applied to the tails the lower the frame rate was, basically it was just looking at the difference in position, and when you have a low ...

Above is another act preview for a lizard you’ll mea-.. Err, meet on Kizan later on :3 The lizard pictured is not the lizard you’ll meet though, he is just a temporary actor testing the act out! x)
Below is a gif showing “portals” that take player between locations and eventually between islands (until sailing itself will be added);
More progress shots on Kizan ^^
The basic lighting is now warmer and tinted towards purple, to give a nice little exotic sheen to light and make the island feel more unique lighting wise too!

Onfe’s been busy designing and painting us some new GUI things for the future; First of which is the logbook (above, the base template for different pages). The basic idea is that your logbook is your management AND information tool with a lot of things crammed in that you can browse, read, and manage in it ^^
The logbook is a long term goal (as in not coming in the next release), but i...

NEW PUPPY EYES BAWHG
At the same time subtle, and not so subtle changes to eye shaders. The old eye shader relied on environment giving enough reflections to make the eyes look soulful, but there were a lot of cases where it just didn’t work because there wasn’t any bright sources to reflect ^^
Technically it is really simple, it’s just an emissive texture overlaid on top of t...

It is misty at the top, spooky jungle below!
Still very much WIP, lighting is largely similar to Skiia still, so the overall mood will go through many changes before it is “visitable” in-game ^^
Changelist r5.26.1:
Well, to be honest, six means gunplay improvements right now! Above you can see some of the basic changes;
- The firing animation is now (well, next patch!) a lot less “kicky” so that it doesn’t ruin your second shot as easily.
- The smoke from firing no longer obscures your vision nearly as badly; It now basically ejects most of the smoke from the side (where the chamber meet...

All fuls (foxes, for those who don’t know the in-game name for them) in game currently are just regular davh with fox colors. In short term (next build-ish) the fuls will finally get a proper davh subspecies morpher for them; That means, while they share a lot of davh features, they’ll be more fox like and will have more foxy features ^^
For davh it means that they basically “lose...
