Week 8-9 - Back in the News! We're back making some noise! Sorry for the week of silence, the last two weeks have been super busy! ...there were lots of keyboard noises. :) (October 24th - November 7th 2016) Let's get to the updates! Door Beta Test Results!
Video: Door Tile Play Through Video: Making the Door Tile Level We recorded the full process of making the level. It was right at 5 hours of recording. The 'Making the door tile level' videos are sped up so you can watch the process in a few minutes. :) A few notes about the door level if you test it out from the Market Center: 1. In Build a Game Market Center - Search for 'Beta Door Test 1' 1. Hang jump - just press the jump button to go back and forth :) 2. If you don't grab the first key (from the jump) you may have to start over. heh. On to the next tile for testing! Platform Tile This week, let's work on a platform tile level! Training - Platform Tile Videos. And a fun video we did a while back on Platform Variations Objective: Make a full level using platform tile types from the default tileset. Try changing up properties and seeing if you can make something unique. :) Questions: Is it intuitive. Is it fun. What can be added? Publish: Go ahead and publish the levels - Be sure to title it 'Beta Platform Test 1 - 'Your user name'' Video: Be sure to make a fun video showcasing your work (and/or image)! We'll work one up as well! And in 7 days (hopefully) we will post all the awesome platform levels! Bugs and Updates! Over 100 bugs were fixed and committed (resolved) in the last two weeks! Things are looking great! Release Notes (and current bug list): http://www.buildagameuniverse.com/release-notes/ Training Videos Nearly 700 Videos are available for learning Build a Game!
