Let it Boom - it takes four

3 April, 2023 - illbgreat | 0 Comments

Hey everyone!

Today we're telling you a story of one experiment gone right.

We've recently started making the first versions of Let it Boom with a co-op mode. And it took us one session to understand that - surprise! - we're making a completely different game now. This revelation happened at the exact moment we needed it. The co-op mode has nothing we had built for the game before, apart from the core stuff – you can move, throw bombs and destroy objects.

In the very first version, the bombs didn't even explode ( ⚆ _ ⚆ )

But even playing this minimal version with a few team members, we discovered plenty to do on the go - tossing a burning bomb between each other (basically hot potato), king of the mountain, and other stuff.

Our experiment showed that people might only need a little to have fun together. The game should have simple gameplay systems that can be combined to create physical impact (we are making a physical sandbox game, after all).

What comes to mind is, of course, the well-known Garry's Mod.

In such sandbox projects, the main fun comes from creating weird and absurd situations and game modes, such as Prop Hunt (which exists in many forms, from Garry's Mod to Team Fortress 2 or Call of Duty 4).

Ultimately, the physical sandbox kills two birds with one stone — an area for fun and a theatrical stage. From the point of view of gameplay experience, the sandbox is an eccentric game and a performance in which the demonstration of physically obscure funny things (look what I can do!) is the primary goal.

We're rethinking the game concept to lean toward the experience described above. We'll still have a mode for players who like well-staged and explained quests and puzzles, and we suspect the free-roaming sandbox mode will play the most fun and essential role. This mode will feature several gameplay systems where players can do goofy things to each other or the environment.

Some of the fun things we have in mind are ball baskets, trolleys on rails, barrels/boxes to hide in, and giant ancient cannons.

That's all for now! If you've reached this point, you have the most beautiful soul.

Let it Boom - what's besides the bombs?

23 March, 2023 - illbgreat | 0 Comments

We've been thinking for a while about what other destructive weapons should we offer the players besides the bomb? 🤔

The main motto of the game is "let's destroy everything around", so appropriate hand tools would be the baseball bat, hammer, chop hammer, or anything that can destroy the environment.

Well, the hammer was in Teardown and Red Faction, and we wanted to avoid copying that one-to-one...

Bat is already very popular, so we also decided "neeeeeext!".

And who doesn't like the good ol' crowbar from Half Life?

We've tried many ideas, including a metal pipe, three types of bats - regular, nailed, and cricket, a tomahawk, and even a compact scythe!

In the end, we decided on a combination of an axe and an alpenstock. It's not overused in other games, it fits the theme of the game, it looks unique enough, and being a mixture of two tools gives us room for a variety of uses for it.

For example, it can be two-sided, one for climbing walls and the other for destroying things. And of course you want to be able to throw the axe like a tomahawk, and you want it to stick to solid surfaces like wood.

The process of developing something as simple as an axe was quite challenging. We went through a lot of trouble because the new tool felt more like a whole new mechanic that was added to the game, bringing more and more use cases that we had to consider. The axe stuck flat into surfaces, disappeared when it hit metal objects, became flat when the object it was thrown at was previously scaled, some objects started to rotate when the axe hit them, and many more.

I'm trying to find a developer who can help me make a game that is similar to an old ego-shooter mod that had cult-classic qualities in the late 00s. Hmu if you're interested.
