• Devlog #26: It's Here.
  February 25, 2019 by m₂#devlog, #launch

  This is it. It's as finished as I feel is necessary, and I'm letting go of it now. Enjoy it as you see fit... Continue reading

  
• Devlog #25: It's Almost Done.
  February 23, 2019 by m₂#devlog, #milestone

  Pretty much exactly what the title says. I wrote all the music, albeit very slowly, but it's all in there, and pretty much every single thing in here works just the way I want it to. All that's left i... Continue reading

  
• Devlog #24: Music Update
  February 05, 2019 by m₂#devlog

  Been silent for a long while, just letting you know that I'm still working on the music, and am a fairly decent ways into it all. I've decided to mess around with some interactive music type stuff for... Continue reading

  
• Devlog #23: Start The Music
  January 26, 2019 by m₂#devlog, #audio

  At last, the music making has begun. I lost a whole night's worth of potential progress while I was trying to debug the issue with my audio interface, which as best I can tell is just the cheap build... Continue reading

  
• Devlog #22: Bit of a Slowdown
  January 24, 2019 by m₂#devlog, #audio

  Hit a bit of a snag yesterday, which was why I didn't post an update then. Didn't get to working on the game until late, and I spent most of the time trying to debug some funky interactions with the m... Continue reading

  
• Devlog #21: Another Progress Video
  January 22, 2019 by m₂#devlog, #progress, #video, #audio, #wwise

  In lieu of my usual short paragraph, here's a short video showing some of the progress I've made up to this point. Hope you enjoy it. Goals for tomorrow are to: Finish integrating sound effects into t... Continue reading

  
• Devlog #20: Mic'd Up
  January 21, 2019 by m₂#devlog, #audio

  Steady progress as always today. I got the minor adjustments to the rooms done today, though I may continue to experiment with the particle systems currently in place. More importantly, I've finally f... Continue reading

  
• Devlog #19: The Final Third
  January 20, 2019 by m₂#devlog

  20 days in, I now have a functional game with a story, fully implemented mechanics, and a clean UI. At this point, the only real thing left to do is to make a couple polish/extra adjustments, and then... Continue reading

  
• Devlog #18: On the Second Pass
  January 19, 2019 by m₂#devlog

  So, almost got the goals from yesterday completed. I finished writing for the 4th and final character (a rough draft), but I only got to looking over the first character's descriptions today. However,... Continue reading

  
• Devlog #17: Small Update
  January 18, 2019 by m₂#devlog

  Just a small update, pretty much just got the third character's basic item descriptions written. These ones were harder to write than the last batch and I'm definitely going to have to revise a lot on... Continue reading

  
• Devlog #16: Writing Characters is Hard
  January 17, 2019 by m₂#devlog

  So I didn't quite have the output I was hoping for today, but that's okay. I'm still way ahead of "schedule," so I can afford a slowdown on the scale of a couple days. Might even be better honestly. L... Continue reading

  
• Devlog #15: Even Further Ahead of Schedule
  January 16, 2019 by m₂#devlog

  Continuing to make some great progress. I spent most of today working on fixing UI and I'm actually really pleased with the overall aesthetic I have now. Things have been set to scale properly (much e... Continue reading

  
• Devlog #14: Already Ahead of Schedule
  January 15, 2019 by m₂#devlog

  WOW I don't know what the hell I was going on about last time with 5-7 days to finish constructing the rooms. As of right now the player is able to progress all the way from the beginning of room 1 to... Continue reading

  
• Devlog #13: Making Good Progress
  January 14, 2019 by m₂#devlog, #reflection

  Steady progress on the design of the game. Actually got quite a bit more done today than I thought I would: I made some changes that I feel help to better distinguish the rooms than different skyboxes... Continue reading

  
• Devlog #12: Door Deck Done
  January 13, 2019 by m₂#devlog

  So today was a particularly busy day, as much of it was spent transferring files and setting up internet on my new desktop. It feels much better to develop on here though, so I'm glad I took the time... Continue reading

  
• Devlog #11: On Deck
  January 12, 2019 by m₂#devlog

  The Deck is in! That's what the inventory will be referred to as in-game, since the items you're collecting are cards. Linking the in-world cards and the deck cards took a little while, mainly for me... Continue reading

  
• Devlog #10: Upcoming Challenges
  January 11, 2019 by m₂#devlog

  So, I only managed to hit my first two goals from the last devlog. I've gotten all 13 items placed in the scene, and I've implemented the progression where each item leads to the next when used, endin... Continue reading

  
• Devlog #9: Big Strides
  January 10, 2019 by m₂#devlog, #video

  Wow. Was honestly not sure how much I could get done today, especially with all the running around and other work I had to get done, but I somehow managed it. I've created the first item, along with a... Continue reading

  
• Devlog #8: The Bare Minimum
  January 09, 2019 by m₂#devlog

  Huzzah, managed to hit all three points I set out for in my last devlog. Added the player controller, some skyboxes, made all 4 of the rooms and textured them, though they're simple boxes and the text... Continue reading

  
• Devlog #7: The First Big Changes
  January 08, 2019 by m₂#devlog

  So I took a look over the assets that I downloaded the other day. And there's no way. It was wishful thinking on my part to think I could get away with using a random assortment of free assets and not... Continue reading

  
• Devlog #6: Blueprints
  January 07, 2019 by m₂#devlog

  I've finally got some preliminary floor plans drawn up for the game. They're honestly very rough (boxy sketches and chicken-scratch notes on item placements), and I'm almost sure that I don't really h... Continue reading

  
• Devlog #5: Phase 2, Slow Start
  January 05, 2019 by m₂#devlog

  Today was the day I finally traveled back from Vegas to Virginia, so I lost a good chunk of time to traveling. Given that our flight was early enough there was no point in sleeping, I haven't really h... Continue reading

  
• Devlog #4: The Ace and Queen
  January 04, 2019 by m₂#devlog

  Shorter entry this time I think, not too much to discuss. Went over the descriptions for the Ace and the Queen, as well as working on the setup of what leads to the actual events that will be in gamep... Continue reading

  
• Devlog #3: Getting to know the Jack and King
  January 03, 2019 by m₂#devlog

  Today was a bit busy, but I still managed to reasonably finish what I set out to do yesterday. I sat down and quickly cranked out a short paragraph description of the events of the story as I thought... Continue reading

  
• Devlog #2: Laying the Foundation
  January 02, 2019 by m₂#devlog

  Day 2 of SUIT development, and lo and behold I've managed to accomplish all the goals I set out to do from yesterday. I finished writing down what thoughts I hadn't finished from a couple days ago, th... Continue reading

  
• Devlog #1: The Beginning
  January 01, 2019 by m₂#devlog

  Hello. This is the first devlog for SUIT, a short game that I have committed myself to making in an attempt to dispel a major creative slump. I'm tired of calling myself a musician or a sound designer... Continue reading
