Fixed my Array Order Load bug!


I realise that if I change the order of the entries in the Building array (as they appear in the Build Menu) it breaks the Save Loading of the buildings.

This is because my Load code "Re-builds" the building as if the player made it, so when the game Saves it stores the place you'd be in the building array then the Load uses that to get the correct data, so if I rearrange between a save and a load it wont find the correct building.

SO! I'm now storing the building type (name) and feeding that into a ds_map to return a value, that value is a Macro e.g "FURNACE" = 3; which I use when populating the building array. Now instead of rearranging the array manually I just change the Macro number for the relevant value and that does it automatically!

Didn't work the first time though...forgot something XD

Magic rework is working! Added in the text info for movement types.

Just gotta fill in some sprite gaps, and a couple bits of data, rearrange and cleanup some look up/reference code.

Does this count as Fan Art?

Harvest Moon is a big influence, even if farming isn't the main gameplay loop.

YUS!

I've been after this for AGES!

Madeline is the main protagonist of the mountain climbing platformer, Celeste. The game has been praised for its visuals, gameplay, and introspective narrative. The game's creator Maddy Thorson confirmed that Madeline is trans in 2020.

Here's more incredible art that Jolters made for #GameJoltColors25!

Help my quests, so empty

Doing a rework of my Magic System to make it modular, so you can have any element as a Projectile/AoE/Orbit, instead of each being set as they were.

Also working on making it so Orbit spells have a charge effect to change the amount.

Dive into the cozy post-apocalyptic open world of Critter Cove!

Gentleman Rat Studios (@GR-Rob ) describe it as “a little bit Animal Crossing, a little bit Stardew Valley. Maybe even a little bit Windwaker, too."
