Gearbits launches on 10.10.2023
Hello everyone!
I’ve announced the release date for Gearbits! The game launches on 10.10.2023.
Since the last public update, I’ve made some small changes to the game.
Here’s a list:
- Missiles have slightly slower target tracking.
- Enemy GB’s shouldn’t get stuck inside the hangars so easily.
- I’ve added some more ammo pickups on some missions.
- And I fixed a bug where the audio was muted after skipping a cutscene.
The gameplay changes are small, but this update makes a another major change. There is now new artwork for all the characters. My original art was personable, but admittedly amateurish. Now the game has art made by an actual artist. I was hesitant to take outside help because so far Gearbits has been a one man show. Hopefully the results will be worth it. If nothing else, it was a learning experience on how to work with outside help, which will most likely be helpful if I want to keep making games. There is an option to toggle the old art back, if you so desire.
You can view a comparison between the new and old art in the linked images. Or you can get the latest version and see them in-game.
I’ve also got a trailer with some new gameplay footage. Have a look!
