Next up
New menu, this one isn't claustrophobic and is organized kinda (top: main modes middle: minigames bottom: extras) some of which you can only unlock during gameplay. Also added videos for the two modes! Release hopefully soon!
I have added mortality (again). Also messing with some audio and lighting. I'm not too concerned about lighting since this scene likely won't make it to the final game.
In the new mode you can find an updated variant of the desert levels! Thick sandstorms, howling winds, fog, limited visibility. Can you make it to the goal safely?
Did this circle fade thingy, which also makes respawn feel a lot better (although I may replace this with a button)
Been improving some of the movement jank. Coyote time no longer nerfs your jump (this was a bug). The system isn't perfect, but it feels a lot better. I'm in a balancing act of allowing lots of movement freedom and not making movement too easy.
Very weird sun design. I wanted it to not just be a yellow dot. Experimented with a couple different designs. I also wanted to keep it pixel-y. It also syncs with the main light direction.
Huge progress 🎯! The target minigame touch up is nearly complete. I basically coded the entire thing from scratch. It's really fun now! This is how I wanted it in the game jam but time made it difficult.
I needed a break from code so doing more art, made a simple 3D version of Crabby Crustacean Jr. as a merchant.
