Hedon's First Review!

Holy crap, guys, Hedon's got a first review :O

And from ICARUS as well, I was amazed to see this. Go check it out!

Sarah's Reward Sprite

Well here it is. A Forge Elemental who's got into the holidays spirit!

Status Update

Hey guys, here's a brief update:

Got few hell weeks ahead of me so not sure how much I can spare several hours a day to work for Hedon as usual, but once I'm done things will be back to normal. Exams and projects and other crap, really swamped atm.

I will start working on the new level which will actually begi...

Part 4 is up!

Had some issues with this, but here it is, there's also a bit of in-game testing towards the end. Enjoy!

BUT WAIT! Reworking Reward Tiers

Now that december has ended, I want to make an update for the reward tiers.

From now on, the monthly raffle for custom graphics such as these I've just posted will be in the 5$ tier reward, and the 10$ reward will be 100% guaranteed monthly graphic (no raffle). So yeah, more graphics for everyone.

H...

Vodyanoi's Reward is Ready!

Here's the second one done, enjoy!

Nistal's Special Winter Reward

First one finished!

Iron Maiden Drawing Process

PHEW. Took me a ton to edit/upload this stuff, part 4 is not yet up, but here's a glimpse at the entire process of creating and animating a sprite character in Hedon. Enjoy!

Iron Maiden in the works

Sneak peek at the new monster I'm working on - the Iron Maiden.

I decided to record EVERYTHING, from sketches to animation for this one, so I can share the entire suffering with you guys <3

Merry Christmas!

Have a good one, guys, and thanks for your support once again!

It's time to get to the month's special rewards now! As you know, I'm offering custom free sprites for you which will be featured in a special gallery in game. You can send me your ideas now, either via comments or via private messages. ...

Acid Potions

Here's the last piece of work done for the weapons in Hedon - the Acid Potion ammo type for the Potion Launcher. With this I pretty much conclude the armory, at least for the first episode (I obviously have more weapons planned for later).

I'm glad I've managed to implement all my ideas into Doom modding, and I'm fa...

Zan's Side Rotation

Phew, finally finished Zan's side view. Two more (angled back and back) and I can start animating them. Very tedious work, but oh well, it will surely look better than if I'd take shots from a 3D model instead.

After this I'll have to do it for crouch and swimming positions T.T

Industro OST up on Youtube!

Here ya' go, the track that plays in the new level is up for you to enjoy any time you wish~

0.4.a released on ModDB!

http://www.moddb.com/mods/hedon/downloads/hedon-04a-testing-demo

Here's the further polished version 0.4.a on ModDB! Phew, it's been a ride. I have to catch up on some various stuff, especially the artwork prize ...

Santa Zan's Comin'

I've got some good news and some great news.

Good news:

This (Patreon) month, the ones who pledge 5$ or more get a guaranteed custom sprite just like the one from the Warlock Tier reward. The guidelines are the same, and you can/should message me about it.

How it works: once I get the payment at the end...

Tiati

The plot thickens...

Hallway

Sneak peek screenshot from the upcoming level.

It's gonna be crazy, and I've been making some huge progress with it in only few days. We might be talking about a new alpha demo, most certainly before Christmas.

Map 04 Progress

Been busting my ass this last weeks and I managed to make a lot of progress with the upcoming map. Here's what roughly 50% of it looks like.

Stay tuned for screenshots!

Potion Launcher Making of Vid

I cringe every time I watch the video, because it reminds me of what big of a struggle imagining this weapon in 1st person was. BUT, I managed to pull it off nicely in the end, and that's what really counts. Enjoy~

Time for the Potion Launcher!

I started working on the last weapon, the Potion Launcher a.k.a. "Pox." I've actually recorded the drawing process, but it's long as all hell (took me about half a day) so I have a lot of editing to do.

Sentry Guns!

Check out this new update video! The very first friendly NPC of Hedon~

0.3.a Demo is on ModDB!

Updated based on some dedicated tester feedback, the 0.3.a has been refined and finally posted on ModDB for broader testing, go check it out!

Inventory Consumables

Another thing I've been keeping myself busy with the last week was finishing all the inventory/usable items. As you can see, it's quite a bunch of stuff to use, and you'll be able to pick them all in the starting test hub of the new demo release.

I am waiting for feedback and testing them myself to get a better bala...

Status Update

Hey, sorry for being silent, been working on a whole bunch of tweaks and adjustments based on the feedback I've been getting from the third level's test runs.

I'm hoping to fix more stuff and upload an updated version on ModDB tomorrow, along with some more pics of what I've been up to the last days.

Hedon 0.3.a pre-demo-release

Hey guys, here it is for Patreon, a pre-demo release (will follow up with a regular demo release on ModDB after I make sure there are no game breaking bugs in).

Wew. It's been a ride, time to see your opinion on it :D

New Graphics

The final batch of new graphics for the Barracks level. Only the new monster left to be made, and we can start talking about a new demo map testing release.

Bath House

Anyone up for a swim?

Barracks Progress

Been pushing on mapping hardcore. If I keep going at this rate, we might see a new demo release in few weeks!

*prays for work to not suddenly get in the way in a huge overflow as usual*

Gym Time

Research shows that lifting too much can be harmful for your health.

...especially with a bunch of angry Crawlers spawning around while you have nothing but your Bear Fists at your disposal.

Happy Hedon B-Day?

Yep. Hedon's been in development for 1 year now!

One year since the day I said "fuck it, I'm learning how to make video games and make my own video game" and the whole thing was set afoot.

I sure as hell learned a lot in this time, and there's still more to learn, but Hedon is making steady progress and sooner or l...
