Hi everyone!
Here’s what we’ve been up to this week! ^w^
New Impact Effects
I spent most of my time this week on animating various new impact effects. I experimented with a few different styles. I also made special variations for bigger enemies.
Underneath this I add another layer of secondary effects to give it more depth and punch:
I threw these in the trash!
Here are some of the sketches and dismissed effects that I prepared but decided not to go with:
I didn't enjoy the comet-like splashes flying away from the enemy. It looked more like a wet splash than a punch impact.
I liked this effect, but it didn't feel right when trying it out inside the game. This sort of punch felt more suitable to something like a boxing game maybe. The shape suggests the energy splashing away in all directions uniformly and steadily, taking away from the speed of the punch.
Forest Area Music Preview
The main theme for the coming area has also been completed! We uploaded a preview snippet for you here:

Follow our composer Moon Mink on Twitter
We often get asked who is behind the music of Kincaid. I'm happy to announce that our composer, Moon Mink, now has a Twitter account you can follow! ^w^
Until next week!

Very pleasant music, and nicely different from the jungle temple without being too different - the melody line is still measured and emphasizing varying degrees of attack, and letting the rhythm and base lines provide most of the energy and tone.
the impact effects make me wish there was like a "Power move" or something you could channel blaster power into for a boosted attack that hits either multiple times, or just a bigger 'explosive punch' effect? for the first idea it's be like, "whack, pow-pow-pow-pow!" for the 'exploding punch' it'd just be a bigger "Whack"
Wow... so calm and relaxing. Reminds me to Minecraft music... and that means nothing bad. Moon Mink sure is good in composing music. That said, I can't wait to see the forest. But to be fair, when I saw your game for the first time, I never thought it would be a porn game, but more a normal jump 'n run. You really know your job and I hope a lot of people will buy it :3
Thank you, that means a lot! We try our best to make a fun game first, and add adult content ontop of that. :) We might add an option to disabled it in the future, if someone wants to play it without it.
