Hey guys sorry for the inactivity lately I’ve been busy with school and an online game development course that has taken my mid off the development of this game.
Anyways jumping right into the update, heres some new features:
Additions:
Added in the ability to load and save game.
Added in simple menu transitions (will be improved next update).
Added in the ability to upgrade your stand.
Added in Ice-Cream cones that you have to buy as well as Ice-Cream.
Added in simple menu sound effects when you hover over an option.
Added in 2 new links at the main menu, linking to my youtube channel and gamejolt page.
Added in new shop screen with different options (needs re-designing)
Added in TEMPORARY water effect. (will be improved in the future)
Improvements:
Improved customer AI and created a simple FSM for each state (WalkingSlow, WalkingFast, StoppedAtStand).
Improved Customer flow algorithm, it now takes into account more variables (e.g. temperature, weather etc..) and is quite modular.
Improved the system behind determining temperature.
Tweaks:
Tweaked the loading screen / splash screen. making in only last a few seconds.
Fixes:
Fixed a bug that caused the stand to sometimes not appear when starting the game.
Gameplay wise this update doesn’t really change that much, This update focused on the look and feel of the game as well as prorgramming cool behind the scenes functions and algorithms… rather then gameplay (which i know i should be focusing on :P). Thanks for the support and I hope you’s all had a good Easter :)
