In the next few weeks, the focus is going to be redoing the conversation system, to be more user-friendly and simple to use.

Hey all!

Straight up sorry for being late this week! A lot has been going on in my personal life in the lead-up to my final semester of university. Therefore this post will be short, but with that out of the way, onto the update!

During this week, I realized that to finish the shop mechanic, I will need to redo the conversation system. So why does it need to be redone? Well in its current form it is a bit janky and extremely time-consuming for me to code a conversation battle. Therefore I want to rework a few of its systems to make them easier to use. The good news is once this rework is completed, the majority of the gameplays would be updated. All that would remain would be 1-finishing the shop mechanic and 2-adding different attacks to meltdown battles. But honestly, that’s stuff that can wait for once I start playtesting. As I will not know how to effetely modify those elements without player feedback.

Anyway, let's see how we go this week!

Haven’t posted for a few weeks, as I wanted to focus on a re-work of the AI system. I was attempting to finalize and fix up the final few bugs in the Enemy AI!

This week I wanted to focus on making each character feel like an individual. So every time you select a character you feel like them. See if you can guess some of their traits?
