Day 4 – Taming the Wild Heart of the Game

✨ Dev Blog: Day 4 – Taming the Wild Heart of the Game ✨

The Dance of Combat Takes Shape

Our hunted creature isn’t helpless anymore! We’ve been deep in the trenches of player and enemy controllers, defining the flow of combat in this unforgiving world. Every input, every projectile, every animation – it’s starting to feel intentional. 💪

Building the Battleground

The wilderness is no longer an empty canvas. We’re carving out the initial paths, chokepoints, and mysterious clearings for thrilling encounters. This isn’t just level design; it’s crafting the stage for a desperate struggle against isolation. 🗺️

Tweaking the Heartbeat

The core game loop is getting a serious workout! We’re not just adding features; we’re refining and modifying, ensuring that every action, every consequence, feeds back into that unique “Wild at Heart” experience. It’s a delicate balance, and we’re making major strides. ⚙️

A Team in Sync

Game dev can feel isolating, even when you’re not making a game about it! But shoutout to this team – we’re tackling challenges together, brainstorming like there’s no tomorrow, and seeing the vision of “Wild at Heart” become clearer with each passing day. ✨

What’s Next?

We’re bringing the enemies to life with behaviors that’ll make your heart race. The environment will start shaping gameplay, and those core mechanics will be honed to a razor’s edge. This game is starting to feel WILD.
