It’s been a busy week, so I don’t have a lot of progress made in the past few days. I’ve added a smoother transition between scene by fading in and out the bgm and also the visual. I used the Visual Effect graph to achieve a cool effect where the player is being wrapped by …
In the past few days I’ve made a lot of progress to the game. First of all, sound design, I’ve added BGM to the game. Every scene has a different BGM. I’ve also added more SFX like grunt and footsteps. The latter is quite important for the game, as it’s very often that an enemy …

It’s kinda weird that the combat system isn’t completed yet at this point, I should have done this earlier, at least before spending time on audio and FX. So the combat system was only partly implemented, the player could throw the shuriken and damage the enemy, but that’s all about it. The enemies would play …

In ShurikenVR, the levels are meant to be played in a specific area, as the environment outside of that area is not properly populated, as seen below. So to prevent the player from leaving the designated play area, boundaries are set at the edges of it. This is done by placing a box collider which …
In the past few days I’ve been working on polishing the throw mechanic. Here some modification I’ve made to it: To summon the shuriken into the hand, hold grip button. After a short delay, the shuriken is fully summoned. The aim laser will appear and player can now aim at the target. To lock the …

I’m demotivated. ShurikenVR wasn’t meant to be a complex game where I spend months on it. In the beginning, I had a lot other cool VR game idea (like TDTD and Haki), with fancy mechanic or interesting gameplay I’m really excited to implement. However, I know that I’m still inexperience and very new to game …

So for some reason I decided to invest more time into the throwing mechanic. Although I’ve validated that the current mechanic is better than the “native” throwing mechanic, I didn’t get into details of either. I’m also quite shortsighted at that moment and didn’t look into other games and how they implemented throwing. Instantaneous Direction …

So after submitting the game and had the game played by a few other game devs, I received some feedback, which I’ll address in this devlog. The first thing I need to update is be the controls, apparently using F to interact is a bit awkward, as it clashes with the movement controls (ASDF), so …

So today I’ve made tons of progress for the game. First of all, I’ve finished the human(enemy) logic. It will run towards the cat if it’s within range, and stop if the cat ran out of range. If the human get close enough to the cat, the human will attempt to catch the cat after …
