Did some rough level work in the cave system. Got the long tunnel, and this one is the first puzzle place (if anyone is familiar with the four stairs/doors puzzle in Paper Mario 2, this is going to be very similar).


For whatever reason, Navigation is just plain broke in Godot, or else I'm missing something huge I got the follower fixed and working. When I load up initially, everything works (in that department). Follower follows, jumps, does its special action. As soon as I change maps, the NavigationArea3D breaks. Even if I go back to the same first map that was working, now it doesn't work. I don't understand. I don't. I'm honestly kind of considering it a backburner thing for the moment so I can get other things done, like level design.

Also did some refactoring and have managed to delete hundreds of lines of unnecessary code Now the sun/moon function is all neatly self-contained, and scene/level transitions are beautifully modular, point and set. I also had an epiphany over dinner about how I could make spawning modular as well I'm thinking it will have to be an exported dictionary of possible spawn points. The most common setup is simple left/right, but some places have back/front, or, as the picture proves, multiple to a side. If I can do an export dictionary and tailor it per scene, then I can use the general location as the key, then the specific spawn positions as the values

Also having to repolish the battle maps. I used a state machine on it to keep track of turns and whatnot, but when I redid the state machines, it kind of broke. Mostly it's just making sure all the new names are spelled correctly

Next up

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.

Did some more work trying to fix up whatever went wrong and...yeah, let's just cut to the end where it didn't work

Started a new project, made some changes, derped around a little, made this cute little guy

Battle State Machine is working Player chooses what to do, enemies choose what to do, and they even have variable rates of attack/defend/flee. Next step will be to actually start dealing damage

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.

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

Dive into the cozy post-apocalyptic open world of Critter Cove!

Gentleman Rat Studios (@GR-Rob ) describe it as “a little bit Animal Crossing, a little bit Stardew Valley. Maybe even a little bit Windwaker, too."

Working on battles. A little different than last time, aesthetically, but still the same basic idea

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

Mae Borowski is the main character of Night in the Woods! It's an adventure game that tells the story of her return to her hometown of Possum Springs. She was confirmed as canonically pan in a social media post by the game's creator Scott Benson.

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
