My First Devlog! My First Personal Project!

Welcome to my Devlog for the Unnamed Cat Cafe Simulator!

The game is currently in its very very early stages of development, and I am aiming to finish it in December of 2022. Looking into the scope of the game, I don't believe this goal is realistic, but I'm all about unrealistic expectations! As this is the first update in my project, I should introduce myself a little. 

My name is Saarsha and am a second-year game development student at University here in Australia! I recently posted one of my projects from March 2022 which was used as the first installment of a Mini-Game Development unit. As you could probably tell it isn't the most amazing thing created but for the first full game I have ever made by myself,  I am super proud.

I am at a stage in my degree where portfolio work is a must moving forward, so I thought I would start a personal project, along with my games assessments for some extra content. So without further ado, I'll let you know how the game is going!

So far I have created the basic layout of the cafe, staff areas (accessed by the player), and the cat's area! I am very new to level design and Blender but so far have created doors (THAT OPEN AANNDD CLOSE! big moment for me) and walls. But, I recently found out about ProBuilder from a professor of mine... and now I probably have to re-do it all. That's okay though because this is all a learning experience for me! For context, this game will be a first-person sim, I am hoping it will have the same look and feel as that one pogo stick game. I can't remember the name but I trust your know it! 

All-in-all, this is a very exciting moment that I hope to share with you!

Sincerely,

Saarsha
