Post-Jam Update


Now that the jam is wrapped up, I took some time to record a gameplay video and improve/fix many things!

Gameplay Improvements

  • It’s now possible to switch to orc without requiring any ingredients
  • Made the gnome’s “light” music play before the cutscene
  • The orc’s tutorial text now only shows once ever
  • Adjusted the stove launcher so that the gnome doesn’t overshoot the ceiling beam
  • Changed the icon for the windows system tray
  • Compressed various textures to optimize the build size by 20mb

Visual Improvements

  • Adjusted lighting so that the baked lighting works properly on WebGL!
  • The instruction text at the orc’s feet now faces the camera instead of the gnome, and only displays while playing as the gnome
  • Improved the styling of the “Recipe unlocked” notification
  • Improved the texturing of the platforms in the cabinet
  • Made meat model slightly smaller
  • Made the tutorial text bigger

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed bug where toggling the cookbook while playing as an orc would freeze the hand to the middle of the screen
  • Fixed some control issues related to messing with the pause screen and cookbook in tandem
  • Fixed the orc’s text bubble being visible outside of the cutscene
  • Fixed orc’s hand moving away when unpausing while cooking
  • Fixed the gnome facing the wrong direction due to clicking then pausing/unpausing or after leaving the shelf immedietly after jumping on it
  • Fixed typo where “Baked Potatoes” was incorrectly named “Mashed Potatoes”
