Diwrnod da!

It's been a while! Welcome to the 5th dev diary for Zoomies: Cat Racing. Development is fast approaching an end as I start to add the final details to tracks and mechanics, but do not worry - there still be some content updates left to go!

Let's have a look at what has been done over the past two months (yes it's been that long!):

Track Dangers

Some tracks will include some sort of obstacle or danger that racers should actively avoid. An example is shown below, showing off a completely unaware driver who is driving around the streets on the Big City track. Move out of his way otherwise, you will be hit by his car!

Tips

The main menu screen now includes some handy, randomized tips which should help new players. If the currently displayed piece of advice does not help, there is a button that will change the tip to a different one when clicked :)

(Sorry about the quality of the gif for this one...)

Details

I've been adding some final art to the tracks including props, physics objects as well as the addition of animated people around the world. It makes racing around the track a lot more immersive!

I still cannot give a date on when this game will be finished because I still don't get much time to work on it, but I am doing my best :)

Thank you to all of those who have played the jam build recently. I've noticed Zoomies surge in popularity within the past month and I'm hoping to keep everyone excited for the release!

Cheers, all!
