The spider is more or less complete functionally AND artistically! I might try to update the enemy spawning algorithm before I release any new alpha builds with the spider, though. I'm on my whiteboard trying to think through that problem.

Here's a short video showing off the improved gameplay loop and "stage complete" screen. The updated artwork for Hensen and his gun and the honey bullets can also be seen.

I mentioned some time ago that I'd upgraded the shading on the beetle enemy's character art. Finally got around to putting together a before-after shot of that upgrade! This time, I made gifs for both!

IT'S WORKING! As far as I can tell, the player's score, high score, and difficulty are now all saved to and loaded from a Json file on the application's persistent data directory (which is in the user's program files directory on their computer)!

Mae Borowski is the main character of Night in the Woods! It's an adventure game that tells the story of her return to her hometown of Possum Springs. She was confirmed as canonically pan in a social media post by the game's creator Scott Benson.

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!

Been working on the artwork for the "stage complete" screen all morning! Right now I'm improving the shadows/shading for Hensen because he is a part of that screen. I do need to work out the contrast between the text and the backdrop image, I know.

Alright, I've been thinking... I wanna do a fly-off-screen when you complete a stage in Hensen Hopper (classic shmup stuff) and I COULD just hardcode it into the character controller script but I came up with a more nuanced solution.
