Wonder crops - How big is too big? (expand)


Still hard at work on the farming system. The game at least has time and the inventory all working so it will be easy to hook everything together. But thats not what this post is about!

Wonder crops

one of the things I've been wanting to do is make the farming system more fun and introduce a few new mechanics, hence Wonder crops.

Wonder crops are grown over a 3x3 set of dirt tiles on the farm and require far more care to maintain and grow. They need to be heavily watered. fetilised and kept free of weeds. Their seeds cannot be bought in-game. instead you will need to find someone around town and befriend them to learn the secrets of these mega veggies and how an ordinary bag of seeds can be used to plant them. Wonder crops are worth more than the total price of 9 of their basic version and will yield a generous amount of seeds if you wish to use them and not sell them.

Hi everyone, I wanted to put my project back out there after taking some time off. Fnafkit is a game about creating custom fnaf games with no need for programming. I'm also looking for anyone interested in helping out! https://gamejolt.com/games/TKFNAF/444860

Finally, you can sell the fruits/veg of your labour. :)

Tall walls are all modeled and intergrated into the engine and work seamlessly with the previous two wall styles. actual wall skins for this set are incoming. A new test build featuring these changes will follow up soon.

Finally, I've had some time to do some more work on the recode. There is hardly anything to see except for this utilitarian clock which can be swapped to 12 and 24 hours in settings. The lighting again changes through the day too.

Wall height is being adjusted to accommodate things such as stages and lighting while also giving animatronics more breathing space.

Light menu is still undergoing it's refit, some behind the scenes code changes making it easier to edit multiple lights. A light will also toggle on/off depending on its intensity. So custom events don't need to be loaded with two different commands.

I know updates have been slow but there really isn't much to talk about when you're just tidying up existing code. We're looking at updating the art style to be just that bit nicer. The crop system working with an overhaul to interactions with tools.

VERY early test of very basic systems in my new project. Do your work, keep the lights on, and everything will be fine. I really want to gush about some of the things not seen here, but will save that until they can be shown off. FnafKit who?

Grey boxing the first layout for the game, But got very distracted making this arcade tunnel. But its starting to take shape at least.

I'm currently working on a new game with a team of people. Here's a mannequin being assaulted for test purposes. Gotta do what you gotta do for your damage systems.
