Countdown to Release - Aiming for This Weekend!

Postby Karl G. » Tue Jan 06, 2009 7:12 pm

Here's where I stand tonight:
- swarming-monsters spawn, attack and die perfectly!
- melee combat is quite nice--smooth and fun to play with. it still needs some tweaking, though. I'm going to make the cursor change to a little sword when you can attack something, for example.
- the client has a crashing bug i need to fix when you move between maps with lots of enemies on them (easy fix) and sometimes monsters are invisible (dunno about this one)
- melee monsters are really stupid: they don't avoid each other, they run into objects, etc. but I just have to import code from the old version
- items come next!

Karl it is amazing what you have accomplished. I have to admit, I never expected project volucris to to grow into what it has. I was going through my gmail the other day and I found this email from ej in march 2007.

They are morons.

Thanks for all the support you guys have shown. Not too much longer now :D

Haha well, not much. It is just a placeholder that took 2 seconds to throw in there :)

So here's the state of things: this version will be released on Monday afternoon/evening, depending on if I get equipped items working and how long it takes me to build in content.
