TERRACOTTA The September Update

Hi everyone!

Did you know that the azure-winged magpie is found in Eastern Asia (such as China, Japan, and Korea)? There’s also a bird in Europe commonly known as the Iberian azure-winged magpie.

This specific bird seems to be suited to the relationship between development team and game’s subject itself, so we were really excited to include the bird in our game!

In narrative segments, we can switch control between player and flock of birds to reach high targets such as kites floating in the air.



In boss battles, where we need to gain some time to operate the puzzle, the birds will become a temporary distraction for the element boss! As you can see in the gif below, the birds represent each of the warriors trapped inside the figures as they are being freed!



We really wanted to illustrate the connection between the development team and the game, so we were really excited to discover the azure-winged magpie.

Thank you, as always, for your support! You can find us on Discord and Twitter. We can’t wait to see you there!

TERRACOTTA May Dev Update

Hi everyone!

Our first announcement of the update is that we're excited to announce that we'll be showcased at Indie Live Expo this weekend! Check out Indie Live Expo’s stream showing off the game at the following link:
https://indie.live-expo.games/en/

We’ve also been super hard at work with the game’s aesthetics. We've begun implementing 3D block art to 2D art! The system we have to go from a 3D model to a fixed camera with 2d pixel-perfect is a shader with a triplanar projection and we’re so excited to show off what we’ve done.

Here's a look at the process:







Isn't that cool? We've been working pretty hard on this and are super excited for you guys to see the results of our hard work. Don't forget, if you want to join our community, feel free to follow us on Twitter or join our Discord!

We’ll see you at Indie Live Expo soon!


Terracotta has a Publisher!

Hi everyone! We’re thrilled to announce that Terracotta is now being published by Freedom Games ( https://freedom.gg ). For those of you who may not know, a game publisher not only provides additional investment and funding for developing the game, but also takes care of a lot of the business and marketing side of releasing a game. That includes managing our store pages, marketing and advertising the game, helping showcase the game at both digital and live events, PR, and a lot more. It really lets us totally focus on working to make the game the best it can be, and provides us with the resources to do so.



Thank you for all of the support you've given us. If you have any questions about the announcement, feel free to join our Discord and we’d love to hear from you!
