Next up
This week I finished off the introduction, the animations for the endings, and started going over all of the backgrounds and improving them, having just finished the basement as a result of that.
Lastly, I finally added the game over screen.
I made new sprites for the menus, made a new icon for the game, and began sorting out the coordinates of everything in the game. The field and the map are done in that regard.
I'm hoping to sort out the music later today.
I've made all of the rooms, and I'm now working on the sprites. Today I refined the front-facing pose for Crepe, and then made all of the other poses that I use throughout the game. So unless I decide to refine her a bit more, she's essentially complete.
I've updated the game pages andĀ uploaded a trailer announcing my game's release date.
My brother put the trailer together, and I think he did a brilliant job at it.
The release date by the way is the 28th of November.
Well I can safely say that I won't be making that deadline I had set for myself.
That being said, the backgrounds are really starting to come along. You gotta love good old Deluxe Paint.
This week I spent all of my time coding in responses for everything I drew in the rooms last week.
Those are responses for left and right clicking, and using an item.
I also made a credit sequence, to give the game a bit of extra flair at the beginning.
The rooms are coming along a lot quicker than I thought they would. Although I clearly messed up the scaling in the kitchen. I only have three rooms left, then it's onto the character sprites.
The polishing phase continues apace. It's taking a lot longer than I expected, but I should "hopefully" be out of the pre-alpha stage sometime next week and into the alpha stage.
I've been finishing off the objects in the rooms. There's only two objects left to do now, as well as the game's logo.
After that I've got to sort out the menu icons and the inventory icons.
I plan to take the weekend off though, so I'll do them later.
This week I've been prepping myself for entering the polishing phase by doing up the GUI elements and making an icon for the game.
I'm very proud of how the icon came out. It took me an entire day to make it though.
Now I'm onto a cycle of test and fix.
