Prototype: Observe -> Sketch -> Spawn -> Climb

< ⌂ >

Hey guys, here is our dev blog for this week. After some iterations, we got our core game loop: a climbing-focused experience that works in first- and third-person.

When a gap or cliff blocks progress, the player taps Tab to open a notebook, sketches a shape, and spawns a usable object to overcome the obstacle. Right now, object generation is hardcoded so we can iterate quickly on the flow: observe -> sketch -> spawn -> place -> climb.

First Meeting 19.10.25

Goal for 04.11.: hill, first person, climbing movement
Physics basics: falling, package and balance
Object generation: 1-2 spawnable items
Team setup in pairs: basics, physics, object generation
Tech decision: Unity + GitHub repository

Catchup 29.10.25

Achievements

Basics: stamina, jumping, running, GUI
Physics: package weight impact on player
Object generation: spawned test objects

Goal for Next Meeting

Basics: simple hill in Blender
Physics: climbing behavior on hill, package weight tuning
Object generation: draw and generate hardcoded object

Prototype hill for climbing tests. — Hill prototype for movement and climbing tests.

Notebook sketching interface for object generation. — Sketching workflow for spawning objects.

Player interaction with spawned objects. — Early object interaction in-game.

Prototype recording from the 04 Nov milestone.

Next step from this milestone: move from hardcoded spawning to deterministic sketch-to-item mapping and add a placement preview with collision checks.
