New Textures, Lighting Engine, and Level Layouts
Information
First and foremost, I would like to thank anyone who is spending the time to read this and or keep up with The Roamers project. I would like to say that while this is an update, I am holding off on posting it until I get a more stable build. I need to fix the lighting bugs and some of the door placement in the house has changed causing some (easy to fix, but nevertheless) errors. The update should be out in a few hours to a week depending. If you would like to support this project even more donations and feedback / criticism would be greatly apreciated. Now to the additions.
New Textures
Probably the biggest addition to this update is the texture changes. Some of these basic placeholder textures have been in the game since the start. Some of the textures I've added are as follows:
- Player
- Grass
- Floortile
- Wall Windows and Doorways Tileset
- Lever
I'm also starting with the character animations (finally) its been long overdue and I have a sneak peek of the first one I'm working on, It's not done yet but I'm still gonna show it. The menu screen also has a darker feel to it thanks to the updated grass textures. See both screenshots below.
Lighting Engine
I added a Lighting Engine to the game made by Shiny Hoppip and also added a HUD toggle option (press H for that)
Here's what that stuff looks like:

Level Design / Layout
Im redesigning the house and area around it and adding props as well. I haven't started with this except for the walls in the house (for light testing) but these are the concept sketches:

Hey man love the game and all the effort you're putting on making it. I was wondering if you needed help with the textures and the UI. Hit me up if your interested.
Thanks, I don't necessarily need any help right now, but after looking at your asset packs I've realized that the UI in my game is a bit outdated and a weapon wheel would be a nice addition. If you would like to work together or have any other ideas (than the ones I listed) email me at theroamersgame@gmail.com.
