changedBattery HolderWithout giving away too much information, Battery Holder is an essential part of the game and will play a major role in the gameplay. That’s why it needs to look sexy and fit the surroundings. We were playing out with some concepts and different versions, but in the end Malaria managed to create this detailed piece. From a white cube, I would call it a major improvement.
changedTrash Bin with EnonsAnother item that might or might not play some role in the gameplay is the Trash Bin with Enons (the main and common enemy in The Flat). We are toying with some ideas as to what we can do with this, but it might as well stay just as a static object that will mainly play a posing philosophical question, rather than serving a gameplay purpose, but will see :)
addedInventory and new UILong overdue but it is slowly coming together. We have just added an inventory into The Flat. With visualization fitting the style of the game, we came up with this semi-transparent screen that spans out of your Keyboard. It is still very much in progress, but once everything is connected, I believe it will be worth the wait. Multiple elements are connected with the inventory and as we know, the Keyboard is more than a keyboard.

Battery Holder

Without giving away too much information, Battery Holder is an essential part of the game and will play a major role in the gameplay. That’s why it needs to look sexy and fit the surroundings. We were playing out with some concepts and different versions, but in the end Malaria managed to create this detailed piece. From a white cube, I would call it a major improvement.

Trash Bin with Enons

Another item that might or might not play some role in the gameplay is the Trash Bin with Enons (the main and common enemy in The Flat). We are toying with some ideas as to what we can do with this, but it might as well stay just as a static object that will mainly play a posing philosophical question, rather than serving a gameplay purpose, but will see :)

Inventory and new UI

Long overdue but it is slowly coming together. We have just added an inventory into The Flat. With visualization fitting the style of the game, we came up with this semi-transparent screen that spans out of your Keyboard. It is still very much in progress, but once everything is connected, I believe it will be worth the wait. Multiple elements are connected with the inventory and as we know, the Keyboard is more than a keyboard.

New riddle

The Flat already has some riddles that the player needs to solve, but we are always looking into ways to make things more interesting. Drawers riddle will be something unique and we hope it will be truly something that players will enjoy. The work is yet to begin, but we already have a pretty strong foundation.

Summary

The development of The Flat is going really well! :) The world and level content are expanding, and in just a month, another update will be posted here. However, if you’d like to stay up to date even more, we share weekly updates every Friday on https://discord.com/invite/qMyCVT3jVr

Cheers!
