It’s been 1 week since our team has started building out the features for the game. We spent well over 200 hours between the 6 of us this week alone on only about half of our total features.

Here’s what we completed this past week:

• Dual character basic movement controls
• Carry-able blocks
• Drag-able blocks
• Doors and 2 types of switches
• Climbable vines
• Thorn obstacles
• The basic mechanics of the boss
• The camera logic
• Character energy drain/charge with basic UI

All in all, it was a pretty busy week. I worked on both the character walk/run along with the camera logic.

I’ve uploaded the build here if you’d like to check it out: https://sethrolfe.com/wp-content/uploads/Above%20WebGL%20Week1/index.html

The controls are a little complicated but they don’t take long to get used to.
