There was a major issue that caused the player to no longer be able to hide from crows after eating a mega-pellet while already hiding. This has been resolved! I've also done a big balance change. Mega-pellets worth 20 legs are now much smaller than the standard pellets. This is so the ones worth more are a little harder to spot from across the map!
New updates in this build: · The Millipede now looks fuzzy when the material is set to 'Matte' in the Millipede Designer. Shiny and reflective is still available. · New animations and UI to indicate when a pellet is eaten and how many legs it's worth. This also makes it more obvious when you've eaten a pellet in first-person view. · Bug fixes related to the end of the game timer display · Bug f…
Faster Millipedes Millispeeds have been nearly doubled. Now that the steering is more stable, this means faster speeds without losing too much control. New Features · Added camera tilt toggle to the first-person view · Added a toggle to enable motion blur · added a toggle to enable Nvidia DLSS More Pellets Added some more pellets to the forest, there were some big bare spots on the map. Bug Fix…
Added first-person camera, just click the right stick or right mouse button. · Continuing to refine the controls so that they feel good on both controller and keyboard. · Stabilized the Millipede more, so it flips over less often.
Added Achievements! · Added dead zone for analog steering to fix drift · Player can now turn the millipede when stuck on a wall or colliding with itself. Hold acceleration and steer in place! · Follow camera can now be tilted up and down · More adjustments to steering sensitivity and damping · Fixed collision bugs in the ocean level · Rollover recovery height adjusted to mitigate instances of r…
Removing the millisecond digits from the game clock display · The win screen still shows all the digits · The clock now fades out after not collecting pellets for a time
Hi Friends! It's been a busy summer working on Millispeed. I've added lots of new features, music, and control tuning to make this game as fun as possible, and far less frustrating to play than it has been. If you haven't played in a while now's the time to give it another try! Features: · New background music · New audio settings panel for turning off the new background music · Revamped forest…
Added fade-ins to the music to make transitions less jarring. · Increased steering damping. · Bug fixes related to crows getting stuck · UI bug fixes related to fade-in/out animations
Refining the steering, especially on keyboard. The millipede should be easier to control, especially when making small steering adjustments. · Fixed a bug where falling through the floor causes a soft lock. · Smoothed out landscape on parts of the map. · Fixed visual artifacts on Millipede's shell material that would randomly appear per segment.
Added 2 new music tracks, and refactored the music system. · Lots of changes to steering sensitivity with keyboard and controller. · Adjusted landscape to be shallower, and more forgiving. · Made the pellets bigger, and increased the range for collecting them so they're less difficult to grab.
Hotfix · Fixed the lighting and fog inconsistencies between scalability settings and DirectX 11 vs 12 · Adjusted millipede steering sensitivity · Made the millipede even less likely to roll over · Adjusted the logic for hiding from crows. You have to stay in cover for a certain amount of time before the crow attack will end.
Lots of improvements in this week's build: · More work on the Millipede's physics to make flipping over occur less often. · The millipede now sticks to slopes better. · Added a UI element to indicate when you've reached safety during a crow attack. · Added a sound effect that more clearly indicates when you have reached safety. · Completely redesigned forest map. It's got bigger slopes and is o…
Hello Millipedes! Lots of fixes and changes in today's update. · Fixed crows for real this time. They now patrol after respawning instead of getting stuck. · Removed a bunch of crow instances, but fixed their patrols so they cover a larger area. · Ferns now offer protection from crows · Removed collision glitch when near a crow. · Lots of movement changes. · Added steering damping at high speed…
New changes this week: · Controller map texture updated · The millipede is now much faster · Adjusted steering sensitivity in relation to speed · Smoothed out the starting area landscape · Lots of little fixes for crows. They weren't working correctly in the last build · The millipede now leans when turning My ultimate goal is for the millipede to flip less often, and to get stuck much less often.
The playtest has begun! Thank you all so much for signing up and showing your support. · Lots of updates to the menus to add more stylistic consistency. · Fixed mode toggle at the beginning of the game not working correctly. · UI improvements. · Player HUD now fades away completely, leaving an unobstructed view of the game. Please feel free to leave a comment in the community page. I'd also lov…
