A tad late to the party, but I'm here nonetheless. Here's some wips, boys. Grab 'em while they're hot.

Anyone interested in grouping to play some matches over the weekends?

Figured out the issue with broken reflections, I had to disable the HDR on the compile process, looks fine now.

Did you build your cubemaps?

I like the layout changes. Navigation is smoother now. What I don't like is the overall look. Maybe it's because I was expecting a grittier inferno, but I'm getting the impression that the level designers had two or more artistic directions, couldn't decide on one and merged parts of them together. For one, it has some hints of degradation going on, leaning towards a darker look, but it doesn't explore that idea to a higher degree. I think that could have been used a lot more to give the level some memorable "marks". As it is, all the areas seem washed(I'm not referring to saturation) and devoid of any uniqueness. Remember that destroyed wall from Portal 2? It's never used anywhere else, but it sticks in your memory.

I spent two weeks just brainstorming, gathering resource material and playing the game. It's important not to commit completely to the first idea that pops in your head and keep the scale of the project according to the deadline. Don't be afraid of tossing away what isn't working.

I just finished replaying Alan Wake for the nth time.

I couldn't quite put my finger on it either, but after I increased the exposure in photoshop it became very clear..

Also, thanks for the heads up with that .txt file

Yes, the green tint is a dead giveaway.

Terminator

Here's another easy one:

For anyone interested in seeing what the series is all about:

The gameplay principles remained more or less unchanged over the years. One thing that isn't constant throughout the series is the camera control. The last entry in the series, Defiance, had the most awful camera control. I couldn't play through it and watched a walkthrough of it instead. Even though the Soul Reaver games have Raziel as the protagonist, the story centers around Kain - hence the name of the series.

For a moment I thought the time had come..

Slowly working that mediterranean vibe

now someone else is asking me if I want to see 'sausage party' at the weekend. It does not look like something I want to see...:P

I saw both of those films and if I were to watch one of them again it would definitely be Sausage Party. It's not as a funny as it would want to be, but it has its moments. You'll never look at food again after the ending.

Is it worth watching?

Edit* Nope.
