Progress Report
Lemma has been radio silent recently, but that does NOT mean things aren't happening! I've been able to do a ton of work almost every day these past few weeks. Here's what's going on:
- Did some massive surgery on the very first tutorial section after getting some feedback from a limited alpha release. It introduces, jumping, climbing, vertical wall-running, and rolling/crouching.
- Added a second, underground section that introduces horizontal wall-running, wall-jumping, and some important story elements.
- Added a THIRD section, which you will see in a moment, that reviews everything and introduces the flying kick move.
- Wrote a small chunk of dialog for the text-message system. It's harder than I anticipated, making the conversations truly interactive without having the dialog tree explode exponentially in size.
- Simplified and consolidated the controls. Everything is on Shift, Spacebar, and Control now, should be very intuitive for FPS players.
- Overhauled some of the animations and added new ones for some new parkour abilities.
- Made the menu a lot more user-friendly.
- Committed approximately 15 million bug-fixes and tweaks.
TL;DR: Things are happening. Here's a video that shows one of several ways to get through the third tutorial section in quick fashion.
