Thanks! So glad you like it! :D

Hi AetherRepublic, thanks for playing the demo and for your comments :D

I'm pleased to hear you thought the demo was fun :)

Yes, respawning after having been on a moving platform has been an issue for a while. Your suggested fix sounds good.

I agree I need to take another look at walk and sprint speeds. I'm also considering adding an option to the input options menu so that 'Left Shift' can be set to toggle sprint on/off. Then holding it down all the time would not be required.

Concerning the data splines, I had thought about a steer mechanic of sorts. A bit different from what you suggest: aiming perfectly forward along the spline/curve would increase your speed whilst aiming away would slow the player down. I didn't think that would work so well in the end. What you suggest however, having to steer to stay on the curve, this sounds very interesting. I think what I may do at this stage if I incorporate this idea is to have a new data spline type (visually different in some way). This new data spline type would work in the way you suggest :)

There are some additional player abilities that become unlocked in the full game. These upgrades are separate from the ability orb upgrades and actually change what the player is capable of. I don't want to spoil too much :) but I can say that a double jump is one of these upgrades. A hang glider ability orb sounds cool, my ability orbs are mostly locked down now, however I hope to make more CONSTRUCT games in the future with new ability orbs not seen in the first game. I can see an ability like that working very well and being lots of fun.

I had thought about adding controller support but I suppose I was waiting to see if there was a demand for it. I'll now be adding support for the Xbox 360 controller and I suppose also the Xbox One controller, I'll need to grab one of these though, currently gaming on PC and PS4 at the moment :)

Thanks again ;)

I agree, an original soundtrack would be better :)

I'm hoping that if I can make more CONSTRUCT games following this one then I might be able to either pay for some exclusive music from Imphenzia (so that there is musical continuity between the games) or maybe hire a composer to do a similar futuristic soundtrack :D

Thanks :)

Hi Bibiki, thanks for your comment. I'm very glad you like the look of the game :)

So, for the music I have opted to use some really great music I found on the Unity Asset Store. I was looking for something very futuristic and also not too expensive as I am currently trying to save money where I can.

The music is by Imphenzia, here's a link to samples from the music pack on Imphenzia's youtube channel - Youtube.com

I've not used all the music available in the pack but have tried to use as much of it as possible throughout the game. I have also used some of the music for the 2 trailers released so far.

Thanks again :)

Many thanks for following CONSTRUCT :) More updates soon!
