Logan Kart 8 November 2015 Development Update


Happy Spooky Scary Skeleton day for those of you that still haven't switched over their calendars. Sorry for the delay, but unfortunately I haven't had as much free time as I had hoped over the past few months (thanks to that thing called school), and so Logan Kart development time has been hard to come by. I won't be able to provide another update until late November or December, but rest assured that I will do everything I can to make sure the wait will be worth it. 0.9.0 should be the largest update yet. Thank you for support.

Logan Kart 0.8.0

Introducing Logan Kart 0.8.0, featuring (finally) some new courses and minimaps! There's an experimental Android version also available for download, but it's a pretty crude port, so don't expect a polished experience.

Changelog:
  • Three new tracks for more course variety! Access them from Time Trials or VS Race.
  • A minimap! (Turn it on or off in the options menu)
  • An experimental Android build.
  • Bullet bills should be more reliable.
  • Improved AI pathfinding on some courses; should make them more difficult.
  • A few changed settings in the options menu, including an option to toggle VSync.
  • Removed motion blur, since nobody used it and it looked ugly.
  • Fixed at least one spelling error.
  • ...and probably more!


Thank you to anybody who has been helping get the Logan Kart name out there. I can't talk with everyone personally but this game exceeded my wildest expectations.

Have fun!

"Offshore" is live!

Introducing 9064's Offshore, a simple platforming game featuring "Jimmy II" traversing an impractically designed, impossibly large offshore oil platform. Can you make it to the top before time runs out?
Some of you may recognize this game... this game was created over the past year or so as an entry for a national student competition, where it won eighth place. Part of that competition's regulations included that the game be playable in 15 minutes or less, so this game is anything but long. The story and writing could definitely use a complete overhaul, but the game is nevertheless fairly solid and interesting to play.

Logan Kart Update

I know some of you want to see a new Logan Kart update soon, but I've been away for a awhile so progress has been slow.
Some people are still experiencing game controller problems; I can't help everyone, since every controller is different, but there is a controller diagnostic screen accessible by holding down backslash and P which allows you to see the axis values, and find any abnormalities that result in clunky behavior (particularly on the character select screen, or when trying to drive in a straight line).
Logan Kart 0.8.0 will likely be released very soon (within the next week or two), so stay tuned. The goal is still to get the game to a more or less completed state by the end of this year.

Logan Kart 0.071

This is a minor update that should fix some of the most common bugs and problems that are known. Full details:
  • Reduced excessively high vertical controller sensitivity, which caused some controllers to not function on the character selection screen.
  • You can no longer get stuck under the bridge in Notreal. Hopefully.
  • Blue shells are more reliable.
  • Some collision between shell issues addressed.
  • Attempted removal of a lap skip bug.
  • Bullet bills go fast without the need to have passed a checkpoint first.
  • AIs are faster and swerve less on higher speeds; should make the game a little more difficult.
  • A new minor bug where blue shells get stuck on Toddler Park, which I'm too lazy to tackle right now.
  • Probably more things that I forgot.
Enjoy!

Welcome to Logan Kart!

So, it's finally here. Logan Kart 8 version 0.07, the official public release! This version is still far from final, so don't expect everything to work, and definitely not work properly and efficiently.



There's not a whole lot else to say here, so go and play the game at:

I made this in less than two hours, but I wanted to get it over with before I made the announcement of the next 9064 game...
