This week at Mutant, we take an early look at the storm in our boss fight.

Dev Update #78

Week of January 23,

Welcome back to another dev update of KAIJU FISHING. We hope you had a lovely holiday. We had a nice holiday (y'know, aside from our flights through a certain airlines) but we've been back to work for a while now with some ambitious goals for the new year. Last year, we laid the groundwork for most of the game's systems... now we build content. The first thing we want to do is get our boss fight into your hands. We’ve been hard at work animating and building the scene - so let’s just get right into it!

SCHOOLS OF SHARP FISH

Real quick, before we dive into a boss update, here’s a preview of another set of pointy fish you’ll find in the seas of Kaiju Fishing. Enjoy.


WATCH WHERE YOU’RE GOING

Our first boss has a couple of moves in store for you all, the latest in the works is this: a charge that you’ll need to lure into rocks to stun him. Here’s a quick look at the early stages of us breaking rocks.


CALL DOWN THE STORM!

The first Kaiju of the game features a familiar form that will call upon a dark and stormy night to fuel its power and to conceal itself further. On our end, that means we need a storm. Rain. Lightning. Thunder. The whole deal.


We’re still polishing up the effects and audio we want for it, but here’s a sneak peak of our early storm!
