Interview:
✧What was the inspiration of the game? What made your team decide to make this game specifically?
Boomerang X, katana zero, and neon white. During summer vacation we play all these game and hope to make a fast pace speed runner game, that player are more focus on plan there road rather than grinding there skill.
✧Were there difficult moments when developing the game? What led to those difficult moments? What did you learn from it?
We are just start making game on unity which know nothing about C# or unity. And these whole game are glue by hope and dream. Much of the code is very inefficient. And cause a lot of bug during development. But fortunately, We are growing while doing it , One of the biggest things we learned from this is that practice is our best teacher. We learn a lot from it.
✧Were there darlings that you had to kill? What were they? Why was the decision made to remove them from the project, and what were the reasons that you like the darling so much?
There used to be a manual melee system which will make player perfrom a really cool melee attack and interact with a lot of element in the game world. But player are more perfer dash and throw shuriken game loop. and melee is a kind deathweight for them. SO we have to kill it to make game more simple and clear for player and more fouce on the dash and throw loop.
