Hey guys!

As day three of development comes to an end I must say it was a rough day.

I spent about 5 hours just trying to write up a working 2D AI follow script for Vardrik, the skull. Eventually I got it working along with his floating animation so… yay.

I also got to work on the first room you will be seeing in the game. The Hero will be rising from his grave at the begining of the game. I’m going to be going back and adding more details and things to the room, but this is the general outline for it.

Shoobies leave a sticky trail of mucus in their wake, which can impede movement for any creature that steps in it.

Here's a peaceful little forest scene for this #screenshotsaturday, from the beginning of the game.

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)
