Pub Simulator & The Old Pack Horse

-
Hello Everybody, we apologise for the lack of blog posts over the last few months, the reason behind this is that we have gone through a massive re-planning of the whole game, the direction the game was heading in was a direction we was not happy with, so have just recently finished the replan, and we are currently in the preproduction phase again, we have been research on where we want to base our game, and that place is Blackpool, we aim to have a wider variety of gameplay choices within our game, because of our re-planning that we have undertaken we have had to push back the estimated release date to late 2020, we don't want to rush the game out and it be buggy and featureless.

However in the meantime one of our developers has been working on a little side project, The Old Packhorse, This was a pub in our local area that closed in 2016, and has been earmarked for demolition, so to ensure that the Pack Horse lives in be it in a virtual world, they decided to rebuild it in Unreal Engine 4, We aim to have it finished within the next couple of months.

What a week it’s been here at PixelPunk! We’ve officially migrated the entire Raveren project to Unreal Engine 5, unlocking a new level of visual fidelity, performance, and creative freedom. But that’s just the beginning. 🎮 Combat & AI Overhaul We’ve rebuilt our entire combat and AI systems from the ground up. Expect smarter enemies, tighter mechanics, and more dynamic encounters. The goal? To make every battle feel responsive, challenging, and deeply immersive. 🧭 Menu Redesign Our UI/UX team has reimagined the game’s menus to better reflect Raveren’s atmospheric tone. The new design is sleek, intuitive, and built for immersion—whether you’re navigating inventory, adjusting settings, or diving into lore. 🌍 Worldbuilding in Motion Meanwhile, our environments team has been hard at work shaping the many landscapes you’ll traverse.

 Today we are happy to share with you some insight into the development of Castle Wars and where we are up to with progress on the game. So without further ado lets begin. Over the last few months, we have been super busy and hard at work, working on the gameplay mechanics, AI, Story for the Campaign and the maps, as it currently stands there is 3 maps developed for the game, with 2 of them being completed and the other map is close to completion.  The base game mechanics have now been implemented fully into the game, along with the character animations and sounds, the sounds are still pretty much placeholder at this stage.

 What a busy month January has been, it's literally flown past us. Here at Yellow Noodle Games, we have been super busy the last month, the new plaza area is nearly complete, along with the housing area, the next area we plan to focus on is the lakeside area, which will come post-launch as a free update to the game, were adding the final touches to gameplay which we aim to feature in the coming months. We still have a mammoth task ahead of us, we still need to record source material for the beer pumps, which we have been unable to do due to lockdown, hopefully, when restrictions end we can go out collect the source material (A dev blog will be done too so you can see further insights) So without further ado let's begin on the topic of the blog, which is Dynamic Weather. Recently our programming team have been hard at work, reworking the current day/night cycle, which was built way back in 2018 back KP software (The original developers) it wasn't compatible with the new full...
