Hensen Hopper

What should the in-universe item for the player's score be? I want there to be lore where Hensen collects something from every Yellow Jacket criminal he defeats and your score is how many he's gotten. I have some ideas but I'm open to suggestions as well!

It's kinda incredible how much simply changing the text font(s) will, by itself, complete the aesthetic of a game, especially in the menus.

I love TextMesh Pro so much!

I don't know how well you can see it in this video, but I've coded a dashing mechanic for Hensen Hopper! I plan to have dashing consume a "dash charge," a kind of ammo you can get as you play in the form of enemy drops.

Very small change, but I added a darker-green border to the edge where the grass meets the dirt. I think this gives a bit more definition to the transition between the two zones.

I spent a really long time on this, I've been here since literally 3 in the morning (it's 7AM as I type) but I really like how it came out!!! The backdrop I had done before didn't feel like it fit with the aesthetic so I re-did it completely.

I've been kind of inactive for the last two days. I've been really busy at work these last two days and I'll also be working tomorrow. I'm going to try to work on the main scene backdrop some more tomorrow after I get home.

It's unfinished but the backbone of "The Garden" is now visible in the main scene! I want to add a lot more to this backdrop later today and over the coming week.

I'm gonna try to draw a backdrop image for the main scene. I have an idea in my mind for how I want it to look so I'm just gonna follow that and go from there.

Guess who's home from work! I want to explain in more detail the challenge the backdrop idea posed, how I initially had solved it and how I'm solving it NOW.

Just got back from work! Wanna make this quick. I ended up applying polymorphism, again. I turned the backdrop script I had into an abstract class and made UI and sprite-based adaptations of that. I'll explain in more detail after work tomorrow!
