My First Devlog


This is a test log, just to get my hands on how this site works.
(Not)Few words after completing QBots.
I am extremely sorry I didn't make it in time to put the story in and get rid of nasty bugs, last day I really  really rushed to put some gameplay, because 90 percent of the efforts went for the basic moving and view mechanics to work. What you see is not a 3D game, it is a 2D game that creates a 2D representation of what is happening that looks 3D. I am fascinated by the topic of creating 3D illusion with 2D (a painters approach I guess)
I wish to make games look like paintings, but QBots in particular has to look like an early 90s 3D game. Little dream of mine :)
There are a lot of bugs for now, because a lot of work also went for the graphics. Everything you see in the game was created and manipulated using a free 3D program Blender. Robots were designed by Drazen(Sketchfab)

Next update goals:
-Fix Objects not dissappearing when not picked up.
-Fix Enemies
(fight when in front of you, make sounds, not go into walls, actively hunt you, and react to your actions)
-Establish Story and Tutorial and labeling HUD
-Add various types of game elements (Elements of environment, Traps, Special Enemies, Weapons)
-Add more combat mechanics
(Kick (pushing enemies onto traps), throwing items)
-Correcting Overall feel of the game
-Add touch and gamepad controls (oh for sure!)
-add left handed controls



Still considering:
-adding Optional Female Protagonist
-adding very detailed sound design to let visually impaired people enjoy this game.
-Adding distance weapons (to enemies too)
-Adding Rpg elements, side stories, items, areas, adventures stuff.
-Changing Graphics to look more colorful or Vector-Like

If you like the concept and you are a creator, you might help me out.
I would appreciate help with development, creating graphics, sound, and expanding the lore.
If you would like to contribute that way, you can contact me. And participate on GitLab, because soon I will be open-sourcing the project.
