In this Ikarus devlog I started working on the basics of world building for the planet Ikarus. I added some extra scenes to give the player a little more to explore and to give them the opportunity to get out of their tiny fenced off area for a bit. I have made a map of what I, as of now, envision the world of Ikarus to eventually look like (very roughly) and found I was struggling with a way to find resources without having to make an infinitely generated world. This is where Monster Hunter comes in. I am a big fan of the Monster Hunter games and thought I'd take them as an inspiration for how you gather resources in Ikarus. You'll be able to go to different areas and find a bunch of resources depending on in which area you are. Should be fun!
Ikarus is my space survival game inspired by the popular Stardew Valley (by Eric Barone / ConcernedApe) and also inspired by Monster Hunter (by Capcom). It takes place on the planet Ikarus where you'll be doing several things to prepare the planet for more residents. You'll be mining, crafting, farming, researching, building and several technological activities!
