Development Update

Support Action

This is a gimmick I've been looking into, at the cost of a turn you can bank an action to use later immediately after someone else. This seems pretty useless but could be helpful in applying status effects that can combine, I still need to think about it lol.

Glitchy Bushes

Also some of the print statements my inventory calls since the UI was still not implemented yet.

This was a quick and dirty test but, it was the best I could do. 2D VFX is really hard if you don't want to draw every frame and you don't know how to use shader graph shiz and whatever. I hope I can do better in the future, but uh technically I'm future me and I haven't touched VFX since...

Quest System Cont.

Here is me playing through a short quest in an old tutorial room. I like this video since I engage with a lot of the mechanics I've been working on.

Ngl I kinda want to have combat take place on the same scene as exploration, you know Chrono Trigger/Sea of Starsy. However, to do that I'll need to do a lot of tweaking to my code and spend a lot of time redrawing enemy sprites I already made...

Box

You can lift it, and you can smack it. Maybe I should put more velocity into the smack.

we got even more characters now, and fancy weapons!

image dump, uh yea... sorry?

Level Switching

Super important feature since I can't put the whole game in one scene without gigabrain code turning things off and on as needed. It also lets me teleport the player within a scene which is nice

Enemy design is delightful, but it's better if I come up with a story first... did you know writing is hard? I literally have to learn everything when it comes to this and it's nuts that some of it was actually taught in school but I didn't listen.

Isosprites

I call em isosprites since they are isometric sprites. Off all the art in my game I like these the most, yet I never want to spend time making more of them. I guess ill get all the time in the world to make them if I can get passed this project's pre-production phase (I'm sorta close... maybe I should make a checklist...) sneaky peeky behind the scenes
