Hi! I know it's been a while since my last devlog. I'm still on vacation, but once I return from that vacation, I will continue developing the game at a slower pace and post less devlogs. Probably like 1 per week.

Plans for the game advertising:

Once I manage to expand the game's mechanics and polish the enviroments and the game itself, I'll start making the second teaser-trailer either in Late-November or in December of this year.

The ACTUAL gameplay trailer should hopefully come out in February next year with the game's release date

Information on the game's release:

I've said many times that it'll come out in Mid-Late 2025(I'm hoping that I don't have to delay it), but the months I'm hoping to release the game are July-August or November-December(Or in the other months in between) on here and on, GameJolt?

GameJolt page:

One day, in my vacation, I thought of more people downloading my game, so I decided I also want to release my game on GameJolt.

The page isn't up yet, but it will be once I get home, after my vacation.

That's all for now! As I mentioned in the first few lines of the devlog, I said that the devlogs will come out slower, but they certainly be juicier than these last ones!

Thank you for reading!

Over the last week, I've been posting about the game I've been working on, called The Re-Rise of StarFall and I need your feedback and ideas to make the game reach its best form.

Whenever you can, visit the game's page on my profile, take a look at the game and tell me what I should add or improve

Game Link: https://andrei363.itch.io/the-re-rise-of-starfall

If I manage to add the requested features into the game, you'll get in the game's credits(Note: I am still a rookie developer learning Unreal Engine 5, so please, go easy on your ideas for the game, thank you!)

That's all! Let me know what I should add

Phew! That was a long title, but for a very good reason! This devlog that you're reading, from my perspective is one of the more juicier ones!

FlashGun optimizations:

If you don't know, the FlashGun is the main gimmick of the game that used to be able to shoot bullets that light up an area on the map for 3 seconds. Here's the problem though, if you didn't wait 3 seconds for the bullet to despawn and shot another one, it would've destroyed only the recent one that you've shot and kept the previous one. And if you shot multiple of those bullets, the game would've had MASSIVE frame drops.

My solution for the issue:

To fix this, I reworked the flashgun to shoot bullets that instead of being there for 3 seconds then despawn, I made the bullets destroy on impact with an object. 

The FlashGun won't be as effective as it used to be, but now it's optimized!

Plans for the FlashGun:

I will discuss this topic very briefly, but what you need to know is that I'm trying to make the FlashGun more useful instead of it just lighting up rooms. I just started experimenting with the potential of the FlashGun yesterday.

Plans for the second Teaser Trailer:

If you didn't watch the first teaser trailer, it's on the game's page.

I am very excited to begin production on the second Teaser Trailer of The Re-Rise of StarFall, as I'm planning to begin working on in November-December! It will certainly be bigger in terms of content than the first Teaser-Trailer.

Extra Stuff:

For the smaller devlogs that are about to come, they will all be from now on the game's page instead of here, and the bigger devlogs like this one will be kept here. So make sure to follow my game's page if you are interested!

Conclusion:

That's all the devlogs, for now! As I'm currently on vacation to relax and have temporarely stopped developement on The Re-Rise of StarFall! But it will continue after I return from vacation, just a little more slower because of school!

Thank you for reading!

Yesterday, as I told y'all, I would post a devlog today about the changes I did yesterday to the game.

I didn't get to much, unfortunately, but I did remake some textures for the enviroment to feel a bit more dynamic.

That's all for today, I'm sorry if the devlogs seem small, but I promise, they will get juicier and juicier as I progress making the game!

New devlog should also come tommorow, but I am not sure

Thanks for Reading!

In 2 days, I will be going on vacation to relax since school gave us a week of vacation, so  I'm unfortunately gonna have to slow down on development when I return to school and pause development when I'm on my vacation. But don't worry, I'll try to work a bit today on the game and document what I added/changed in the game tommorow! That's all for now, thanks for reading!(If you want to learn more about the game, visit my page and it's other devlogs!)

Whenever I select a destination folder to package my ue 5 game to, that folder is empty. In the output log, its says that the system couldnt find the path specified. How do I fix this? I tried everything from re-installing VS studio to disabling stuff in the editor, but nothing works.

I am currently working with 3 people but I think i can work with you also just add me on fdiscord and I'll make the art for you

Sure, just add me on discord
