My First Devlog


I checked itch.io Jams page and saw one was starting in about 30 minutes, the "One Game a Week Jam", and it had a fun Escape Room theme so I decided to jump in!

Here's 2 shorts, about 10 seconds each. First video is my initial test of movement and item interaction (it includes "using" items, but you can't tell in the video because that's just console-log output for now) after about an hour. Second video tests the puzzle system with a simple "move the object to match what you see" puzzle just to test my code after another hour or two of work.

Next I need to add some real puzzles and some more core mechanics to support more puzzle types, then pepper it with some graphical and audio spice. I have a partner who might make some of the 3D models for this.

This is my first devlog, so I'm keeping it simple. I might add voiceovers to my next devlog videos. Also, I need to submit my entries to this jam early unfortunately because I had already planned to participate in the GMTK jam, and the times conflict. I hope I can get this playable in that reduced time. It didn't take long to get this far, so I might be able to pull this off.
