I think I've finally finished this game. This 1.3.0 update adds new modes, bug fixes, high scores and keeps track of them along with user preferences. Read the full patch notes in the article below.


​ShapePlacer 1.3.0
Patch Notes - 2020/01/20

The last update for ShapePlacer is finally here! Now the game has a fast mode, an invisible mode, a bunch of improvements and (hopefully) no more bugs.

Additions:

  • ​Fast mode - reduces shape drop speed by 0.01 second for every line filled, 10x faster than normal mode

  • ​Invisible mode - shapes fade out when they finish dropping

  • ​High scores and user preferences are now saved to the computer

  • ​The R key and a restart button can now be used to restart the game

  • ​R for restart and space for pause on the controls page

Changes:

  • ​Replaced automatic restart 5 seconds after a game over with manual restarting

  • ​The next shapes are now also covered when the game is paused

  • ​Significant UI changes and improvements

Bug Fixes:

  • ​It's no longer possible to avoid a game-over by quickly moving a shape out of its spawn position in situations where the game should be over

  • ​It's no longer possible to accidentally restart the game with keyboard keys

  • ​None of the shapes appear off-centered in the next shape panel anymore​

The current state of the loot system in my game. Players can select up to four locations where they want to scavenge and receive some randomly-generated loot.

Learned how to use Adobe Illustrator just for this, but I finally gave my characters a much needed makeover. Here is one of them.

The early stages of a loot system. Next, I will have to figure out how to replace repeated items with numbers on top of one item.

Replaced my old shop textures with new ones...works like a charm

Figured out how to display the number of items found instead of displaying the same item multiple times. Might be a little hard to see them in the gif though :(

So guys, we did it, we reached 1 000 stickers

Working on fixing the perspective in my game. Not quite there yet, but it's definitely improving.

The humble beginnings of what will eventually become an inventory system. For now, it’s just a grand display of apples though.

Items can now be moved between inventory slots and swapped places with each other. The inventory system is slowly coming together!

I really thought I had "fixed it" when I posted the before and after images. How wrong I was...
