First big friday update!

It's been a busy week for Team Fugl, so this week's big update is a little late. We hope to have it ready a few hours earlier next week! Ok, so what's new?

New avatar unlock system (morph to unlock)
New avatar selection screen
Avatar editor fully working on PC
Fish avatars (including a dolphin and a sailfish!)
New alien avatars
Avatar physics adjustments
Orbit camera with slight zoom
Fixed missing animals bug
Crash fixes
Menu navigation fixes

Next week we'll be working on ground movement, take off, landing, animal population and ai in addition to the normal stuff such as fxing bugs, implenting small features and ofc helping people with problems. We hope to see some cool designs with the fully working avatar editor (including vertex painting). Please post your stuff for the community to see! Marco has made a short tutorial video for those wanting to take the plunge: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iJWB_t2A6bM If you like Fugl, please tell a friend about it, because we're 100 % dependant on your continued support. We will try our best not to let anyone down. This is a project three years in the making and we're in it for the long haul! Please leave your wishes for next weeks update in the comments below. Cheers, Johan Team Fugl

Fugl – Meditative bird flying game
Team Fugl

Developer

Kotori Studios Ltd

Publisher

2017-09-14

Release

Indie Casual RPG Simulation Singleplayer EA

PLEASE NOTE

Fugl is currently in alpha, meaning we are still adding new features to the game and improving stability and performance. We are looking for players who want to play the early version of the game, and hopefully also get involved in its development.

WHAT IS FUGL?

Fugl is a sandbox game where you create the story, playing as a shape-shifting bird. Relax and feel the breeze under your wings as you glide serenely across picturesque landscapes, or kick up the excitement and soar up steep cliffs like an eagle. With no set rules the free roaming gameplay lets you discover the beauty and secrets of the world at your own pace and dares you to make your own meaning for a stress-free experience.

Fugl’s world is a vast and unique voxel playground. It is procedurally generated yet carefully crafted, with diverse areas to explore, from icy wind blown caves to tropical paradises to great deserts and old growth forests. Each environment is rich in diverse wildlife with hundreds of animals to find. You may even be lucky enough to stumble across rare mythical creatures. Come close to any of these creatures and you have the chance to take on new visual characteristics and flying behaviours inspired by them.

Give the world of Fugl your own creative touch by personalising it in the extensive level creator and craft your custom bird in the avatar editor.

ROADMAP

We are very proud of what we have accomplished so far, but we still have a few things we'd like to add to the game, before we come out of Early Access. The following are features that we'd really like to add, but everything is subject to change as development is still on-going.

Feel Free as a Bird

Expand on the core experience of flying: Add wind, thermals, clouds, day/night-cycle and diffrent kinds of weather.
Just as there are many different types of birds, we'd like to be able to support many different ways of enjoying life as a bird in Fugl. Some are looking for a more chilled experienced, and some for a frantic challenging experience. We are working on ways to support different modes of play.
Birds can do more than just glide on the winds, break, speed up or hop on the ground and we want to support as many special manoeuvres and abilities as we can!
Fugl is not the only living thing in the world. We want the wildlife to be able to influence you, and you to influence them!

A Living World
The animals in Fugl are really important for providing a sense of life, interaction and immersion in the world.

Improved AI For the animals
Better physics For the animals
Physics interactions between the player and the animals
Faster and improved distribution of animals in the world
Animal motivations to make them more interesting to interact with
More animations

Environments & Level Creator

Steam Workshop integration for the level creator
Support for more procedurally generated content
More support for user generated content like voxel models

Rendering, Hardware and Platforms

Linux Support
We are old-school so we are still looking to improve performance and reduce memory requirements wherever we can!
We still have a few rendering tricks up our sleeve that we are working on
