GameDev Progress Post for February!

Happy March everyone! I hope you're all doing well! I think this is everything I got done this month!

Enjoy!

Lool! The account might be 9 years old, but I only really started using this place 2 years ago? Was in November i think.

Anyway, thank you all for the Spawn Day wishes, that's really kind of you

I hope you all have an awesome day!

Hmm, A or B. Or both but for different Reactions?

Fixed a bunch of stuff, and reworked some other code.
Goblins no longer get their arms stuck up after jumping.
Also made them more in sync for now, until I work out the Call and Response system.

Added a SHOCKED reaction.

Reactions happen for both Goblins simultaneously.

I'll add some variation so they don't react the same, I'm wondering if I should make it "Call and response" where one will do a reaction then the other will react to the reaction.

NPC Goblin interactions update! Now with Belly Laughing and Happy Clapping!

Got it working! Split them into a "Chatting" state and a "Being Chatted" state, one for each Goblin.
Everything is controlled by the Chatting Goblin.

There's a failsafe in the Being Chatted Goblin in case they don't get released from the state.

Now I slep

Wait, I forgot to exclude themselves from the Goblin Hunt check...

So, Goblins who are wandering can find each other and will try to approach and emote at each other.

It kinda works? Very janky.

Hmm, thinking about how best to make Goblins interact with each other

Swapped out and split up the old Goblin sprites, now all the actions are split into;

Body/Clothes/Arms/Ears/Tool

Body and Clothes can be colour shifted.

Now I need to do the emotes, and set up a system to actually use them!
