Big progress day today This after spending half an hour trying to figure out why a function was executing despite not apparently being called (I was looking in the wrong animation )


After doing some back-end work, got battles back up and running, now with 5.7% more efficiency

Made a pretty awesome death animation for human enemies, then got distracted by the aforementioned function bug that turned out to be user error (as usual) Then I got frustrated by that and decided to knock out a minor annoyance to cool off

Originally, I was just looking for a stand-in background because I was really sick of the Godot logo, but holy crap, that looks amazing I like the oil painting look; I think it contrasts well with the paper/shadow theater theme going on. Added a quick texture to the stage so it didn't look so out of place. Now I'm going to have to work on my crowd, too, so they're less mannequin-y

These would be the distracting shinies I mentioned in a previous post when considering when I was going to try and make a gameplay video

I don't think I'm going to get any huge chunks of progress done over the next week or so, just bits and pieces here and there. That's to be expected, I guess. And, really, it's Christmas. If you've got a good family, spend time with them. Work will always be there. If you don't have a good family, make one. Don't feel obligated to walk into another fight just because they're relatives. There's someone else out there who doesn't have a good family either and could use some Christmas cheer

Oh no! Jelly blobs of doom!

They're only supposed to be the size of a mini-yux

But doesn't he look so much more prepared for adventure?

And yes, she is carrying a deer foot staff, modeled after one hanging in our house

This game has gone through so many iterations it's not even funny anymore

Decided to do some work on the save/load. Name, Chapter, and even Total Play Time CORRECTLY FORMATTED Will work on the chapter banners later. Free time formatting code below

Madeline is the main protagonist of the mountain climbing platformer, Celeste. The game has been praised for its visuals, gameplay, and introspective narrative. The game's creator Maddy Thorson confirmed that Madeline is trans in 2020.

Today's accomplishments include a rather smooth state machine, a functioning opening cutscene, and name input. It's not pretty, but there aren't any bugs

Happy Video Game Day!

July 8 is Video Game Day, a holiday that's obviously close to our hearts at Game Jolt.

Celebrate by completing our quests! They won't be around long, so get the rewards while you can.

Lots of modeling the last few days. Got some houses made, remade some of my terrain blocks (rebuilt the harbor), and started on the NPC models. Also worked on the battle system and the follower system, now with 1/10th the code but 10x more efficient

Doing some designing of the main village, mostly so I can get some connections in and get the next part of the opening cutscenes roughed in.

With exception of some minor odds and ends, the home interior sheet is finished, which means I can start on all the levels. The next house (level 9) is an old farmhouse, the kind that had a bazillion rooms
