Not directly game dev but about teaching game dev principles; hope it's ok to post: I am writing a presentation system using #love2d to create videos on game dev topics (so far mostly math, but other topics will follow). Pretty happy with today's result.
Next up
Triggering attack animations. It's still missing so much though 🥲
UI/UX improvements for the battle menu mainly. Came up with some insults to select as well XD
Trying to come up with the UI for a turn based combat system, replacing the dexterity game I initially had in mind as the UX on device doesn't work so well. The challenge: The UI must fit on the 128x128 screen.
Working slowly towards something that could be working. Just didn't feel well the recent days and lost a lot of free time I had :(
Happy Video Game Day!
July 8 is Video Game Day, a holiday that's obviously close to our hearts at Game Jolt.
Celebrate by completing our quests! They won't be around long, so get the rewards while you can.
Game is running at 20fps on the device, a good improvement from the 6fps I started at. I focused on the graphics rendering for start, but there are other areas that I want to look into next.
Coming up with the UI navigation for the available actions for the turn based combat system that I want to give a try.
Happy #WIPWednesday! Are you working on a game? Making some art? Practicing a song? Something else? Tell us in the comments!
After lots of back and forth, I managed to optimize my tree rendering code so that it runs with >30fps on device.
