I did get a lot more done on the backdrop yesterday, by the way! It's not finished by any means, in fact, it's quite empty and even ugly in some places, but it's beginning to come together!

I've been working on the backdrop today! Among other things I've done, I made a bush! I know, SOOOO impressive lol.

AAH! SPIDERS!

I've been working on improving the backdrop for Hensen Hopper! The way I'm doing it this time is I'm creating a 32x32 image for each texture I want, tiling it to fill the backdrop image, and using layer masks to "paint" where that texture will be visible.

You see I was GONNA get to work on the procedural enemy wave generation algorithm but then I remembered I still haven't drawn a defeat animation for the spider so now I'm working on that instead. 🤣

Doing it in layers starting with the web as usual.

This is a short video showing off the new procedurally generated enemy waves in Hensen! In theory, the game will become more and more unpredictable as I continue to build and implement new enemies!!!

You know there's only 1 outfit I could wear! Reppin @gamejolt in Bandit Trap!

Very unfinished but the backdrop image, as it is in this video, is already leagues better than what I had last weekend! I'm going to work on it incrementally over the coming weeks as I work on implementing the stages idea I talked about before!
