Next up
I felt some mechanics were underutilized, so I'm making an expansion.
...more or less just a side quest and extra dungeon. No more than that here.
Coming who-knows-when.
As a writer, you learn to just make stuff up. As a science-fiction writer, you justify the stuff you just make up.
"Derma" is related to "skin", and "myo" is related to "myoelectric prosthesis".
I was considering releasing the expansion today, but then I found a lot of bugs I should've spotted in the original build, and I made the minimap do extra stuff for said expansion.
Don't worry, it'll be out by tomorrow night.
Just a reminder. It's coming on the 16th, assuming nothing goes wrong.
I figured out an easier way to program arranging angles on a rig.
It involves choosing which body part to move, then using the mouse to calculate an angle.
Namely, angle= point_direction(x, y, mouse_x, mouse_y).
Despite anything resembling better judgment, and this not going into any demos, I decided to implement a swinging mechanic.
I got it working. You can control the swing (loosely), and can stretch and retract the arm. It even adds a bit of momentum.
The next update may be full of bugs.
...moths, mostly.
Why, yes, programming an elephant IS hard. Making its eyes blue is a lot easier, but I'm not doing that.
I also had to make sure it's a robot elephant, specifically, because this is a robot circus, and it's unethical to use real elephants.
Two-level demo for Robot Maid P-NA-4 is here!
...but the game's still not in active development right now.
He's coming back. ...but just this once.
