Bit of a busy day today so I didn't do much unfortunately...

I will share this screenshot for screenshot saturday though, including Aya's shrunk HUB version (top right).

Tomorrow is strictly coding more of the Day 1 intro scene before the first hang-out.

Started putting together the first day of game.

A bit worried about space cartridge space since I'm at 140 KiB of 4MB...

If it comes to it I might have to simplify the colours and dialogue. I'll see with time though...

Finally got around to making the actual protagonist lol.

This is Ive! The (almost) blank slate you'll use to interact with the world

Doesn't he just look as cute as a button with his dead, empty eyes staring into your soul~? ❤️

Release plan for First Impressions

(In article)

Coded and made music for a menu and file select (inspired by Kirby's Dreamland 2)

I also have 3/6 of the main characters sprite sheets done ( until I need new ones for specific stuff I'll write later)

Finally I have 4/6 of the first day hang-outs written.

Did more sprite work and a bit of writing today, but the big achievement was coding this intro segment and the GB/SGB/GBA detection. There's a few unique messages like this you have a small chance of seeing on opening the game.

(Any lag is because of OBS)

Colorized the pitch and garden in-engine to get a feel for what they'll look like

Made the garden and pitch today

Also wrote 2 of the lunch hang-outs and planned the first 2 battles for day 1

From tomorrow I have 82 days to make this, so I either gotta hurry up a bit at the rate I'm going at or just multi-task and code while writing...

Just thought I might share this comparison for Screenshot Saturday

Love how color mode can make a scene look so much more lively when used right, and I certainly hope I've done that here! (Not to say DMG games can't be beautiful either though...)
