New website

Now that I have a server to put things on, this blog is no longer needed. Instead you can go to my new website: theasuro.de/Velocity

It's still under construction, but I will post all my new stuff there. That means this blog will still be here, but I won't update it any longer.

0.2.2d

This will be the final 0.2.2 update, now I'll fully concentrate on implementing the level editor and the new movement code. This update fixes some graphical issues with the temple level and the game will no longer upload times that were made with not-default movement variables.

Velocity 0.2.2c

• Bug fixes!
• Level4 finally works!
• Cool speed display!
• What do you want more?!

0.2.2b

New Version! With Leaderboards! Get it now! theasuro.blogspot.de/p/stuff.html

0.2.1 is out!

After making some good progress, I decided to release 0.2.1 early. The biggest change in this update is that the game now runs at 100 physics time steps (or "ticks") per second, which gives the player higher control and better strafing. I also fixed some minor bugs, added a framerate row to the debug window, and demos can now be saved on all platforms. All other changes mentioned in the older blog post will be added in 0.2.2.

Plans for 0.2.1

Here is my plan for the next few weeks:

• Additions/Changes
• Walking around feels sloppy and uncontrollable, friction has to be adjusted
• A way to toggle jump on/off so you don't have to hold space all the time
• Refunction R and F1 keys: R will do a "soft reset" that spawns at the last checkpoint and doesn't restart your run, while F1 will put you back to the start with a new run
• A visible finish line (or box)
• A better display of speed that's part of the default UI
• A way to manage your saved demos

• Bugfixes
• Crouching is horribly implemented right now, I'll have to rewrite it in order to fix several bugs with clipping
• The console (F2) is in a very bad state right now
• Multiplayer gives (hidden) error messages and barely works
• Playback of demos doesn't work atm
• Your own ghost is visible in multiplayer and might obstruct your view

New Version!

Velocity 0.2.0 is out! Go download it here. I fixed a lot of bugs, made the UI less ugly (it's still not good though) and added a new map. I also added a linux version because why not, however it is untested (just as the mac version).
