I think the next thing I'm gonna work on for Hensen Hopper is it's story and lore. I want to keep the game an endless high-score shmup like it currently is so I'm thinking the story will be told through a first-new-game intro and a daily questing system!

I don't know what this post is gonna be to be completely honest. I have thoughts I'd like to share about how I view art as a mode of self-expression, which is why I want to channel my grief for my dog into Hensen Hopper's backstory as a character.

I might need to put Hensen Hopper on hold for now. I'm probably going to need to take an extended break from gamedev because my (irl) dog passed away this morning.

Today I really want to focus on something other than the beetle because there's still a lot I'd like to improve about the core game. I think that might be my focus today in particular.

The beetle shell is now fully VISUALLY implemented! Next thing on my list is a unique sound for Hensen equipping it.
