State of Development Early 2023

Happy New Year, and I hope your first days of this year has been good and will continue to be! Last year many great things happened behind the scenes for Big Boy Boxing & Soupmasters, however that also means that we couldn't share and be as active sharing the development progress of the game. That will change this year, not only are we going to post updates and leaks more regularly, but we'll also include the existing community in playtesting (and some other fun stuff I wont officially announce yet steamhappy). I'll refrain from a announcing an exact date on when that'll begin, but one thing I can say is that we've got plans to keep the community busy basiclly for the entierty of the year! If you have Wishlisted and Followed Big Boy Boxing on Steam, have joined the Soupmasters Discord Server, or is subscribed to our YouTube channel, you will be the first to get news on when that start! I'am truly humbled by the support the game has gotten so far, I can't state how important that has been so far, and how much the continued support will be to make Big Boy Boxing as good as it can be! Don't forget to like and comment your thoughts on our latest teaser trailer! [previewyoutube=wc3S5fYgeYk;full][/previewyoutube]

Soupmaster Games new Branding!

Yo! Up till now we've disregarded Soupmaster Games visual branding as we've put all that visual juice into Big Boy Boxing's character animation. But I think it's good for Soupmaster to get a little of that visual love so we made our best attempt at a logo and icon for the studio! This design is in no way endgame and we will be upgrading it or straight out reworking it in the future. But as for now I believe it will work fine! Let me know if you like this design!
Logo and Icon Square Form Factor

Development Recap for November

Hey everyone! November is now behind us, so we'd like to share some key development progress done this month. Please enjoy! beatmeat
Freezy Boy's transformation animations have been quite time demanding to make, but we are happy with the results.
Also been tinkering with new Dialogue Systems and new dialogues for the characters. Here you see B.F.T (Blunt Force Trauma) teasing Coach Hank!
We are certain that we want some kind of player upgrade progression, but the details are not finilized. Either way the backend system is mostly finished for this.
The Slow Motion Ability will be activated at the cost of thunder, this will make you double the speed (in relation to the boss). We are also working on a perk that gives you a brief slow-motion after a perfect parry.
Added a healing ability, it's got a few seconds charge time so you really need to stun your opponent before you can safely use it.
We've added the mandatory feature to pet the dog. steamhappy Follow us on Twitter to get future news first! steamhappy https://twitter.com/realsoupmasters

Big Boy Boxing Our Animation Process

Hey! I've been asked by a few different people about how our animation process for Big Boy Boxing is like, and although I don't think we are doing anything very different I'll still share how our current process generally looks like! coindlc First, we make a design for the character. There is a lot of back and forth here, and we never stress completing a design. Instead, we let ideas grow naturally into designs.

coindlc Then we make animatics for the character, that convey their motion very broadly. Already in this stage, we put these assets into the Game Engine and start doing internal testing for the game feel.
coindlc After that, we will make keyframes at roughly 6FPS. Sometimes we actually remove details in the design to make it more "animation friendly", however in this particular case with Freezy Boy, we did not need to remove anything.
Example below of "animation friendly" implementation, buttons and certain lines are removed when animating.
coindlc Finally, we will manually extend the animations into 24FPS, this is the point of no return, so any alteration to the design needs to be done before this step!
coindlc That is about it! In the future, I could make another devlog that goes a bit more in-depth into our process, and also show off some of our custom development tools! Extra: Here are some other 24FPS Idle animations for you to see!

The best way to support us is by Wishlisting Big Boy Boxing! steamhappy (And follow for more news!) https://store.steampowered.com/app/1680780

In-Depth Devlog about Gamemodes

This devlog of sorts will give you a better insight on the different gamemodes we are designing for Big Boy Boxing! Keep in mind that all these features are Work In Progress, and depending on your feedback may be altered!

Campaign Mode

This is the main gamemode of Big Boy Boxing, and is where the bulk of our resources will be poured into. It will feature 15+ Boss Fights, each also having minibosses/minigames/dialogues, etc leading up to them.

Overworld Map

The overworld will be branching, where some fights or sequences are entirely optional, making it possible to optimize your runs for speed or return to a fight that you were previously stuck on.

Upgrade System

During your playthrough, spend Upgrade Tokens to increase the power of your character in different upgrade trees to give you an extra edge in certain scenarios! By the end of the campaign you will have all the abilities unlocked and feel worthy to go up against the world champion.

Minigames

Sprinkled throughout the campaign, there will be some optional but spicy minigames to test your skills, or grind out a greater highscore. For example, Dance Battle against a DJ or see how long you can ride the mechanical bull in the local bar.

Playable Characters

During the campaign, there will be fights or entire chapters where you can play as another character. For example as your Coach during his Prime (in a flashback).

The Story

The story in Big Boy Boxing starts as a typical underdog story with a comedic overtone but then evolves into discovery and exploration of the world that the game takes place in, learning more about the environments and characters that inhabit it. Some key characters in the story are Coach Hank, Linda Rocks, B.F.T (Blunt Force Trauma), Frank Dude, and you the player (name undecided).

Alternative Singleplayer Gamemodes

These gamemodes are unlocked during the first playthrough of the Campaign Mode, and will give the player more ways to enjoy the gameplay of Big Boy Boxing!

Classical Arcade Mode

Essentially this mode will emulate the old-school experience of a arcade boss-rush game (Like Punch-Out!!), and will only feature the 15 bosses one after the other. This means that the minibosses/minigames, and the story elements will not be present and you get a score at the end indicating how good you finished that run.

Endless Survival Mode

In this mode you will fight rounds against the bosses and minibosses where they will have their gameplay values randomly generated, and random modifiers that make each playthrough extremley unique. Also after a wave (that consists of a few rounds) you will be able to upgrade yourself. Your goal is to "survive" for as long as possible, defeating as many opponents as you can. Death is permanent and you will get your score after getting knocked out.

Multiplayer Gamemodes

These modes you play together, either locally or through the web (Haven't decided how we are going to do with servers yet)

2-Player Versus Mode

Imagine Punch-Out + Street-Fighter. First both players pick a character they want to play as (there will be 15+ different characters to choose from), then the show is on to see who can utilize their character the best in a 1v1 match. Each character will have different thunder punches, stats, abilities. But the base movement will feel recognizable from the main game.

Leaderboards

With all the gamemodes there is going to be a friend's leaderboard that is integrated with for example Steam Profile for Steam. Don't flex your highscores too hard, ok?

Community Driven Content

These gamemodes are driven by the community and can add a lot of playtime and fun to you guys!

Speedrunning

(Isn't much to say really more than that) the game is designed with an easy to learn, hard to master approach, and we'll add in-game timers and other tools and integrations that are normally expected by the speedrunning community. [previewyoutube=frn0NM-GVHQ;leftthumb][/previewyoutube]

Steam Workshop (Modding)

Last but definitely not least is Modding Support, which will allow a modder to create new bosses, new player models, new stages, or modify the content already in the game! There will be two ways of creating content for Big Boy Boxing, one advanced method that requires knowledge of Unity Game Engine, and the other will be much more designer-friendly that uses a mod creator tool (that we provide free of charge).

Concept Thoughts (& Ideas)

Some ideas or unfinished concepts I'll share with you guys anyways!

New Game Plus+

Have been thinking about this for a while, and I really want to add this in but also make it interesting and not just make you keep all your upgrades but the bosses have higher damage values.

Playthrough Options/Modifiers

Give you guys some Gameplay Options that make it fun to replay or do a custom challenge. An example is a First-Person POV that zooms the camera in and you see your gloves only.

Co-op Mode

The implementation of this mode isn't really finished designed yet. But I think it would be awesome to play in the same team as your friend against the big bad bosses. If you want to support us, the fastest and most effective way is to wishlist the game and share our project! https://store.steampowered.com/app/1680780
