Pub Simulator Progress Update

-
Good Afternoon All

Sorry for the lack of blogposts over the last few weeks, we have been incredibly busy working on the game and hiring new staff.
Over the last few weeks we have been busy working hard on Pub Simulator, we recently went through a whole engine change from default Unreal Engine 4, To a custom built version of Unreal Engine 4, as you can imagine porting the game and code over has been a mammoth task, however teh porting has been completed and results from using the custom engine are very satisfying, performance is up considerably, Native Direct X 12 support and Vulkan. There has been so many subtle under the hood changes, you may notice the change in graphical fidelitly, this has been tweaked to give it a more photorealstic appearence

Meanwhile our Environment team has been working hard on improving and updating the older parts of the map and constructing new parts. Some of which we will be showing you today, Which is a new park area. We hope you like the results so far.

*Please note all screenshots are Work In Progress and may change significantly during  developement.

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.

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.

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.
