King of the hill! At this point, it's kind of just level building


Got the lesson notes and typing prompts done for the first area, which has seven levels, but I only have three levels made. And no, I'm not doing procedural. Yes, this is a primarily educational game, but I still enjoy certain aesthetics like hand-built levels

Also did a little spit-shine on my dialogue code. It's not fabulous, but it works for what I need. Mostly it's just a little introduction for a new game and then a little dialogue at the end of the level. There isn't really a "story" to this game, but it's just enough to let the player know that they're moving to the next area, out of the backyard and into the house, from the house to the city, and so on Maybe there will end up being something story-ish to it, I don't know. It's not part of the plan...

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.

Almost done with Area 1. 4/7 levels completed. Started work on the home/interior sprites, ran into a minor logistics issue But if I get them outlined, I can polish and reimport later

Ah, yes, Grandpa and Grandma's old farmhouse, with a million rooms, basement full of mason jars, and the old '57 Chevy in the garage

I mean, not my Gramma and Grampa, but someone's, right?

Ha! Heh! Heh! Ha! It's over!

Went to a powwow today, which means I got basically nothing else done. But I did fix that oddly specific bug and make the option button a teeny bit more interesting Just need to fix Lucy's vest (tomorrow) and then on to the demo!

Working more on Orphan Simulator, progress is coming along very, very well! Everyone think's Jack is directly based off Jevil, but truth be told it was completely coincidence and I just wanted to make a funny jack in the box enemy.

Mirror, mirror, on the wall

Who's the richest of them all?

This guy. Because he has two fridges, two microwaves, two chest freezers, and four ovens

And let's not talk about the luxury bathroom

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

My aseprite tree generator if finally out and panicking!
