Hi everyone!
Another slightly early update, I just get too excited to show new stuff off! The image is a preview of a tavern in Akaba (Ignore the blue demon that's just for testing). I'm implementing a new lighting system, the left is the old version where light sources just put out light in a circle, the right is the new version where the light is directional so it only lights up the room. I think this looks a lot better as the rooms feel like enclosed spaces. The light level of the map itself doesn't change but it no longer lights up the outside walls.
Although its a bit counter intuitive this won't make the game darker, in fact it will actually make some of the darker areas of the game a bit lighter as I can put light sources on adjacent walls without them overlapping each other.
Whilst I'm implementing this directional lighting I'll also be reviewing the lighting on each map. Let me know if you think there is anywhere that is too dark/too light.
Catch you in the next update!
