Hello, everyone!
So I have a lot of new updates from the latest weeks.
Chapter 5 from Summer Snow Day is officially under construction
Last week we had been officially working on chapter 5 for Summer Snow Day. We aren’t sure exactly how many chapters the game will have but I believe we already have more than half of the main story.
Of course, there is a lot of polishment to do and we also have to add the side plots the player will be able to do during the main character’s free time plus the missing main plot story. Though a lot is still missing, it really feels nice when we start a new chapter. It makes us feel like we reached a new achievement.
Created two new free tools
Last week I released two tools:
One is the Newgrounds API Helper which I wrote about it here. This helper is a wrapper that tries to be more friendly for developers that use mostly Unity when trying to use the Newgrounds API. It also tries to simplify its use by making the request through a single calling method or giving extra performance functionality.
The other one is the Giphy Unity Requester and I wrote about it here. The tool lets you use the Giphy API in a simplified way in Unity. It also becomes very simple, at least for me, to use because it uses UniRx to manage async calls.
I had a lot of fun doing these tools and I hope that someone will find these useful. I know that I am going to use the Newgrounds one pretty soon for the Stonks game we are working on and I think I will be using the Giphy one pretty soon too.
Stonks
We also had been making a bunch of content for the game Stonks, which apparently we are going to keep calling it that way. The game right now is almost complete! Only bug fixing, some missing art assets, and a few improvements we want to add are missing.
The features of the game will be to be able to trade with stocks and crypto, create some time deposits and you can buy random objects to show how wealthy you are. Our goal is to make the game available for web and Android for now so stay tuned if you are interested!
Is This Still Tennis
We keep trying to make the game as fun as possible. After a few tries, we had been thinking that the current approach is not enough to make the game as fun as it could be so we decided to start testing new mechanics.
There is a lot to do once we have the correct one but we hope we are going to get there. We are currently trying out a more baseball mechanic so let’s see how it turns out!
That’s all for now so thank you very much for reading and stay tuned!
