Hey guys!

Summer break has finally given me some time to work more seriously on Caretaker, so 0.1.0 is almost ready! This is technically the first “real” version since it includes the full house layout, even if most of the rooms still use filler textures. Progress is kind of slow but it’s happening!

Here’s what’s new in 0.1.0:

• The Music Room is in! The crank mechanic is functional, although I’m still not happy with how the lighting change works. It feels too abrupt.
• The basement area is HALF-implemented. You can walk to the top of the staircase but not down it yet.
• Rewrote parts of the player controller because the collision kept breaking when walking near corners. I still don’t know why.

Not a big update, I know, but 0.1.1 should have the basement fully finished. I’ve been thinking about making some way of “linking” the rooms together with a more interesting system than just a door. You’ll see what I mean eventually.

Thanks,

Magic
