Playtest and Film Day

Posted on by carl

I’m ready to start rolling the game out to more public events. This includes entering it in game festivals like GDC alt.ctrl and Indiecade. To do that I need some kickass footage of the game in action for demo videos. I invited some of my past students and their friends over for free food and beer in exchange for letting me film them playing.

We had a great time, I got some wonderful footage during evening hours, and we found a few new bugs to squash.

Here’s some framegrabs.

Caught on film: a new speed record of 1,490mph!
Twilight hour shows the lights well. They discovered you can play sitting down, too.

Ooh, pretty bokeh

Mysterious night lights.
Love that shallow DoF. Not sure if I can use it though.
Bright white night light sight.

 

People having fun(!)
