New Foes: Cores

Previously known as Bits or Ores, Cores are elemental bombs that self-destruct as soon as they can. The second image shows some designs that were too interesting relative to the others, and they had to be simplified.

Find Matt’s Cats – Version 2 Update!

3 Replies

Hey everyone!

Find Matt’s Cats has been updated to Version 2 on Steam.
And the game is currently on sale too.


This update adds a lot of new content to the game:

• 14 new levels spread across 2 new worlds.
(these levels are more ambitious than the original levels and include some unique mechanics)

• A “Simple” difficulty option, which features a shorter list of goals, and less interactions, but gradually becomes more challenging as you progress.
(you can play this with your kids, or if you want a more relaxing experience)

• More cursors and filters that can be unlocked with gems.

• 10 new achievements, for a total of 100.

• 25 new artworks to collect for the gallery.

• And finally, a bunch of new dialogue, featuring more trivia about the game’s development.


If you have not finished the game, and want to play the new levels, you can type this cheat on the main menu: “skip to the good stuff”

This will temporarily unlock all levels.

Enjoy!

Oh, and in other news: A Mac version will be coming very soon, hopefully within 1 week.

New Foe: Slingers

3 Replies

These guys took quite a lot of drawing since the Gunslinger and Swordslinger in past games just recycled existing weapons, while here I had to make new weapons to match the style.

You can probably guess what the historic inspirations are for each of the 4 enemy types…


Here’s an image showing the steps in designing and drawing a new foe… though in this case it’s based on an existing one.

The drawing starts with Flash’s line tool, before being converted into shape fills and smoothed out a bit, and finally shaded in. I need to pose the foe a bit while drawing to make sure it can do all the poses I will need later.

Extra detail: their hats become damaged when these foes are hurt.
