More Ways to Restore Color and New Level Design Elements | Indie Game Devlog #7 - Farewell North

Join the new Discord: https://farewell-north.com/discord Wishlist on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1432850/Farewell_North/?utm_source=youtube&utm_campaign=devlog7 In this video I'll show you some of the new features and functionality that have gone into Farewell North over the last few weeks. None of these features were big enough for a dedicated devlog on their own, so we'll just go over a whole bunch! First I'll show you how the dog petting mechanic from the last video was improved using a suggestion from Litt Whitt to have the color temporarily restore while the girl is petting the dog. I think this effect works really well, and I'm really happy with how it further emphasizes the relationship between the characters. I was also able to make some improvements to the boulder pushing animation using the same techniques from the last video. Next we'll introduce a whole new fog system which will mask level elements until color is restored, allowing for hidden pathways and some added optional content. I've also implemented the first memory of the game, which is important as these will be key drivers of the story as the game progresses. Finally I'll show you a brand new feature I'm working on to make the canoeing a little more interesting. By adding some collectables in the ocean which temporary activate color in the area the player will get to experience more interesting moments in the water. I hope you enjoy the video, let me know what you think of the improvements the comments, and don't forget to like, subscribe and of course, wishlist the game on Steam!

You play as a collie working alongside your human companion to explore, solve puzzles, and restore color to the islands. #devlog #gaming #videogames #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev #unity #unity3d #madewithunity #discord #steam #steamgame
