Lighting and Collections
Posted on September 19th, 2016
I have been working on a lighting/shadow system. Some of you may have seen the .gif I shared on facebook(below).
I wanted to share a scaled down screenshot so you could see what is to come (collections/bestiary/day-night cycles/etc.). The lighting system really makes a difference of night and day – no pun intended.
The collections will be another bragging right and will also show up on the wiki site when searching for a player. You can turn in any weapons/armor/items that you find. Once you turn it in it shows up in your collection – but will be gone from your backpack forever. This is for all of the hardcore collectors out there. The collections system will also be tracked on the site leaderboards.
I will keep working away and hopefully push this large update (0.9.9) soon. Our new composer, Tanaka Mutaviri, has been creating music for the game. His work is amazing!!
p.s. I also have seemed to fix the server crashing due to the website getting too much action. Tweaked some of the Apache web-server settings. I guess I cannot complain about getting too much traffic to the site. That is the purpose of the Google Ads!
Business Cards
Posted on July 26th, 2016
For those of you lucky enough to have met me in person or for those who just found business cards or stickers somewhere… kudos. I have just received my latest order of business cards and stickers from Vistaprint. Here are all of the designs that I have printed:
Version 1.0 – first card
Version 2.1 – brown bat cave card
Version 2.2 – playable sprites in grass card
Every time I run out of business cards to hand out to fellow gamers I have decided I will make a new design and order more. I have a hidden envelope in my house that has a bunch of ‘mint’ business cards and stickers of all 3 types so far. On the outside I aptly wrote ‘Kisnard Online Memorabilia’. I am hoping one day they can be an IRL prize for some game event(s). I see a long future for Kisnard Online. I am hoping one day we have a large community playing my mmorpg.
