RELEASED: Experimental Build 2022.09 (Greyboxing, Jungle Redesign) (Patreon)

I’m happy to bring you a new Experimental Build: https://www.patreon.com/posts/experimental-09-72185100

Build Focus

This Experimental Build focuses on the greyboxed new world layout. We thought it would be fun and interesting to show what the game looks like barebones and in the middle of the production of new levels.

Before we dress up levels, we spend a good amount of time just playing a skeleton version like this, jumping around, tweaking stuff until we think the room is interesting looking and fun to traverse.

If you'd rather explore everything fully once it is filled in, you might wanna hold off on grabbing this one!

Once we’re happy with the greyboxed version, we start dressing it up and adding stuff to it.

Aside from basic geometry, all rooms are mostly empty. All shortcuts are already unlocked, since there are no mechanics in the levels yet.

Aside from that, Kincaid also has some experimental abilities you can play around with. Right now she has a triple jump and her boots fire projectiles downwards if you jump mid-air. These are just some ideas we’ve been playing with and we thought we’d just leave them in there for you to play around with, instead of cutting them out for the experimental build. ^w^

Upcoming Patron Build

For the upcoming main build we’re going to dress up this greyboxed world and fill it with life! There will be new minor enemies and critters and everything is going to use the updated visuals that Fabian worked on during the past couple of months.

Updated Build Release Schedule

For the builds following the next release, we’re aiming to follow a bit of a faster release schedule than usual since we’ll be mainly focusing on making new rooms and filling them with life. There’s going to be new art for minor enemies, decorations, UI/HUD and stuff.

Our goal is to release one new build every month until we’ve caught up with the old version of Kincaid in terms of content, and then switch back to our previous release cycle.

Thank you so much for supporting the development of Kincaid!

Warm regards,
Cookie & Bunny
