Shader Tutorials Continue, Audio Asset List Created

This week I only had a little bit of time to work on the game. I spent some of that time putting together a list of all the sound effects in the game and where they appear in the project to give over to a friend of mine who is interested in producing some sound effects for me. The rest of the time I spent refreshing myself on what I'd already covered in terms of shader tutorials so far. So, not much forward movement this week. Next week will hopefully be better.

On Contests

I worked very hard on a design test that's part of Wizards of the Coast's "Great Designer Search 3." I definitely didn't procrastinate at all and I'm definitely not just writing this now, at midnight on Sunday.

With seriousness, I apologize for not posting anything this week. If only to talk about the shader tutorials I'm doing, I plan to resume next week.

Sound Designers and Shader Tutorials

This week I got in touch with a friend of mine who was interested in providing sound effects for the game. I'm going to provide them with a list of sound effects that need to be either created or replaced. At the top of that list is going to be the sound effect I keep having to cite each week. Sheesh.

I also continued my slow progress with learning shaders.

No update this week, but shader things!

I unfortunately don't have an update, but I will share that I decided to look into learning how to do some basic things with shaders this week. I was intimidated at first, but of course as soon as I started watching tutorials it became a lot more approachable... Because that's the function of a tutorial.

I'm not sure in what capacity I want to use shaders for this game, but I know that I do want to keep things aesthetically minimalist, staying to simple geometric shapes and more-or-less solid colors. Learning a bit about shaders could really expand my options for look and feel while staying within those parameters.
