Cave Defender Devlog – Week of October 29, 2018

Since January 1st of this year, I’ve been keeping a log of my daily work on Cave Defender. I’m sharing this log on a weekly basis so you can find out how development is going with the game. In the last week I:

• Posted screenshot saturday. Some environment tweaking of mission 1.
• Made the shield generator model and initial implementation in the game.
• More iteration on the advanced and normal shield models.
• First pass of the advanced shield unit model, and quick implementation in the game. Still need to add the ‘deflect debris’ feature.
• Restored the crystals in mission 1 - not sure why I didn’t export them before? They were in the source art. Also had to re-place a bunch of the teleporters because the environment scale changed or something? (for the same level)
• More iteration on the shield model. Implemented some test changes to debug this weird audio bug on device.
• Investigated a strange long-time audio bug on iOS. Worked more on the shield unit model. Still no luck on the bug. Need to try without disabling any of the defenses tomorrow.
