Game
Parasite's Island

5 years ago

Hello Everyone! Here are the things that I worked on today:


Camera Follow

The camera would follow the infected inhabitant when it is moving and when it is not moving the player is able to control the camera

Camera Pan

When the infected inhabitant is not moving, the player can control the camera by either hovering the mouse to the edge of the screen or by pressing the WASD keys

Selected Inhabitant

In the previous implementation, when the player press the inhabitant then it would be infected by the infected. But I decided to change this mechanic. The inhabitant is now clickable by the player without infecting it. When an inhabitant is selected, the camera would follow that inhabitant until the infected moves. In the future a UI would pop up when an inhabitant is selected. This would allow the player to select what they wanted to do with a particular inhabitant. Either infecting it or interacting with it but for now the camera is able to follow the inhabitant that it selected.

Hello Everyone! Today I continue working on implementing the A* Path Finding Project into the game.

Hello Everyone! For the past few days I have been working on the schedule system. Not sure if this would be it or I would change it because my current implementation is buggy and laggy but here are what I've made so far

Hello Everyone! I just uploaded a new devlog update on my Youtube Channel!

Hello Everyone! Today I started implementing a new system of infecting inhabitants.

Hello Everyone! Today I re-implemented some things that are included in the game before I changed the grid system and the path finding implementations

Here are the changes that I made today:

Hello Everyone! Yesterday, I finally implemented the new means of infection through a small panel of buttons. It took me the whole day to implement because of unforeseen errors but I finally finished it

Hello Everyone! in the last update I implemented a schedule system. Unfortunately my implementation causes an error. I removed it instead but I have a different implementation of the inhabitant movement in mind so look out for that in the next updates

Hello Everyone! Yesterday when I implemented the new infection mechanics I forgot a little detail about the infection. Today I fixed it.

These are the changes that I've done for today:

Hello Everyone! My implementation of the path finding is not optimized and causes some lag. I decided that it is best if I use the A* Path Finding Project. Learning this might be the focus of this week's development

Hello Everyone! I re-implemented the animations and the tile maps of the game.
