Finished the game with this version 1.3.0 just before the end of the year! Read the full patch notes in the article below.


FoodEater 1.3.0
Patch Notes - 2019/12/31​​

FoodEater is finally finished, just in time for the end of the year. Now there is an obstacle mode, separate high scores for different game settings, high scores and user preferences are saved to the computer, along with a bunch of other changes. But most importantly, food definitely, probably, most likely doesn't spawn under the snake anymore. I think. Third time is the charm, right?

Additions:

  • Obstacle mode - replaces 20 empty tiles with walls for some additional difficulty

  • 6 separate high scores for each speed setting and their respective obstacle mode

  • High scores and user preferences are now saved to the computer

  • Chosen speed and obstacle settings are displayed in the user interface

  • Windows and Mac game icons

Changes:

  • High scores now actively update during the game instead of updating once at the end of the game

  • Increased frog duration to 5 seconds

  • The frog can no longer spawn at the very start of the game

  • Minor UI adjustments

  • Minor performance optimizations

Bug Fixes:

  • The frog now disappears when the snake crashes instead of remaining on the screen for its remaining duration

  • Food can't spawn under the snake anymore

The current state of the loot system in my game. Players can select up to four locations where they want to scavenge and receive some randomly-generated loot.

Learned how to use Adobe Illustrator just for this, but I finally gave my characters a much needed makeover. Here is one of them.

I really thought I had "fixed it" when I posted the before and after images. How wrong I was...

Replaced my old shop textures with new ones...works like a charm

Figured out how to display the number of items found instead of displaying the same item multiple times. Might be a little hard to see them in the gif though :(

The humble beginnings of what will eventually become an inventory system. For now, it’s just a grand display of apples though.

The early stages of a loot system. Next, I will have to figure out how to replace repeated items with numbers on top of one item.

So guys, we did it, we reached 1 000 stickers

Items can now be moved between inventory slots and swapped places with each other. The inventory system is slowly coming together!

Working on fixing the perspective in my game. Not quite there yet, but it's definitely improving.
