A Day In The Life

Holiday Update (Expand)


Here we are, almost christmas. What can be said for a day in the life? The player is implemented. Tools function. The clocks and calenders work. But one thing I've found when coding other projects is that it can be so much better. While all the leg work has been done to get these features ready the game is stagnating while awaiting very basic features.

Before I do anymore work I have to do something about the inventory. Needlessly complex. useless controls and a horror to comprehend after spending more than five minutes not looking at the code. So I will be trashing the current system. Atleast the menu anyway. As said before you pick up more and more as you go on and realise things can be better.

The new inventory is being written to take full advantage of the mouse with click and drag functionality along with controller support. Tools can also now be introduced to the UI which as to now have depended on debug code to work properly.

Whats to be expected right now? well...

Farming demo - Nothing special this demo but farming is working. So its all ready to go with what we have. Also it will offer a chance to see a very small snapshot of the game. Im aiming to have it ready by the 23rd.

NPC's - Dialogue works, spawning works on paper. Why not get some characters going? Having Npcs to experiment with will help the game build up pretty quickly once all their functionality are ready.

??? - ???????????????????.

I know updates have been slow but there really isn't much to talk about when you're just tidying up existing code. We're looking at updating the art style to be just that bit nicer. The crop system working with an overhaul to interactions with tools.

I'm currently working on a new game with a team of people. Here's a mannequin being assaulted for test purposes. Gotta do what you gotta do for your damage systems.

Wall height is being adjusted to accommodate things such as stages and lighting while also giving animatronics more breathing space.

Finally, you can sell the fruits/veg of your labour. :)

Character customization: How and why bother? (expand)

(Mines and menus preview build)

Available for testing now

Finally, I've had some time to do some more work on the recode. There is hardly anything to see except for this utilitarian clock which can be swapped to 12 and 24 hours in settings. The lighting again changes through the day too.

Hi everyone, I wanted to put my project back out there after taking some time off. Fnafkit is a game about creating custom fnaf games with no need for programming. I'm also looking for anyone interested in helping out! https://gamejolt.com/games/TKFNAF/444860

Buttons ver 2- jumpscare Test

VERY early test of very basic systems in my new project. Do your work, keep the lights on, and everything will be fine. I really want to gush about some of the things not seen here, but will save that until they can be shown off. FnafKit who?
