It's been a while, but we finally dropped a new game. Please check it out while it's still under judgment!

(erm, early bird gets the werm?!)

Project Break Beak is a game that's akin to what was see on 2000's handhelds. Here's footage from the current alpha.

Getting all the pieces and their behaviors is the current priority - then visual assets and level design will be built.

We dropped a Twitter thread featuring the current progress and updates for our next 3 games.

Break Beak is in early development. It aims to be our first "console" styled game, in the form of a platformer with a bit of a funky flair. (Gameplay is seen in thread)

The 2 games that will be released before Break Beak are projects that've been in the works for a while now. They will both be "arcade" style of games, in line with the current CubePunks portfolio

A good sum of previous posts have been documenting work on Round Zero. The game is coded but the art is still being worked on.

Horny Police exist in a similar status, coded an in the art phase. Gameplay is a horde mode survival shooter, featuring humor skewed for an internet audience

BONUS NEWS: The already released CubePunks titles will be getting ports for mobile browsers.

There's currently an open beta for 3 of the titles.

In the future, we'll aim to have a mobile-compatible version of the title ready on release.

Right now Poko is just a small arcade-style game, but we have plans for how to make it bigger. We just need a little bit of help.

AS FOR OTHER GAMES

The top-down shooter "Horny Police" and the boss rush "Round ZERO" (previously under the working title "combat platformer") are also wrapping up development, with art assets currently being worked on. Releases will be spread out more or less a month apart from one another.

We're also taking some time getting used to the 3D side of the Godot engine. Going into 2023 we plan on doing bigger titles.

2.5D platformer test

So it's been a while since "Combat Platformer" (working title) had an update. But here are some screenshots showing how it currently looks.

This last few pics are the roughest looking because the 2 main assets that need to be added are level backdrops and the cutscene artwork. Aside from those 2 things, all the work left on the game is tweaking what's there.

A major hurdle that stalled development were the character assets. I needed to improve some of my 3D modeling skills, and this is the first time I've animated a game to this level. However all bosses have been finished and added to the game.

My goal is to release the game within 2022. There will be some features added in a post-launch update (like the training mode)

The game's coding is complete - it's all art asset generation and integration. Twitter is the best spot to keep up to date on progress, but the rundown goes...

• CORE GAMEPLAY: 100% there but has placeholder assets over it
• MODES: arcade and story will be available at launch, 2 additional modes are planned to be will be added in an update
• CHARACTER MODELS: All molded, all rigged, but require minor adjustments and tweaks
• CHARACTER ANIMATIONS: In progress, not integrated in-game
• MUSIC: writer, integrated, but not final mixes or masters
• SOUNDS: working on that next
• EFFECTS ANIMATION: No progress
• ENVIRONMENTS: No progress
• MENUS: Layouts and functionality, but no final fonts or buttons
• HUD: Same state and menu

It's not going to release this month sadly, will aim for next. Even with the "hard part" out of the way, I don't want to phone the last bit in.

Heads up, it's a short game, and simple if you compare it to consoles. But I do think it's a fun play, my favorite game I've made so far.

I made a video showing progress in under a min.

Our top-down shooter game "Horny Police" (gameplay preview) is currently in the asset generation and implementation phase. Here's a preview of the idle sprites drawn by kai-el-jefe

Egirl - Boss Character

Officer Cheems- Player Character

Honry Goblins - Enemies

We also have a boss rush 2D beat-em-up that in the works (gameplay preview). It is still relatively early in development but it's shaping up to be promising. Here's the concept art for the player by KageKMB

Fanart of her has also already been drawn (even though the design isn't finalized lol)

That's it for now! Hopefully, the next front-paged post is regarding the release or a patch for Horny Police.

Follow us on Twitter for more frequent updates on game progress.

On top of the OneyPlays fangame I'm coding for Vudujin, I also got the gameplay completed for a survival top-down shooter. Art is being drawn right now by Kai-el-Jefe (who designed the family friendly game VORE), and the main gameplay is built (be it with funky placeholder assets)

This is the next CubePunks original project, if it comes out before or after the OneyPlays one, only time will tell (and smell).
