We're in this Together | Devlog #2

Hello everyone, and welcome to the second devlog for The Aftermath- Wasteland! In this devlog, we’ll be going over some of the new features and updates that we’ve been working on, as well as our plans for the upcoming week.

Overhauled UI

One of the key changes that we’ve made since the last devlog is an overhaul of the UI. We’ve made the UI more user-friendly, aesthetically pleasing and easier to navigate. Here’s a screenshot of the new authentication screen.

Invite your friends to your base

Another major feature we’ve added is the ability to invite your friends to your base. This is a great way to play with your friends and work together to survive in the wasteland. Players have the option to send an invite to their friends who are present in the lobby. The invitee then chooses to accept or decline the invitation. If they do accept the invitation, they join the inviter’s entourage, and the inviter can take these players to their base.

Inventory system

We’ve also added an inventory system, which is linked to the Firebase Realtime database for persistence. This means that your inventory will be saved across all of your devices, so you can pick up where you left off no matter what device you’re using.

Next Up

For the upcoming week, we’re planning on working on the following:

Crafting system: We’re going to be adding a crafting system, which will allow you to create new items from the resources that you find in the wasteland.

Level 1: Locate the missing scientist: We’re also going to be adding the first level of the game, which will involve locating a missing scientist and escorting him to safety.

Outro

That’s all for this week’s devlog. We’re really excited about the progress that we’ve made on The Aftermath- Wasteland so far, and we can’t wait to share more updates in the future!

Until next time. Peace 🤞
