Info dump day, filling in some of the story and environmental flavor Not going to get a lot done this weekend (if anything), so I didn't want to get started on anything big


So, Godot released 4.2 today. As much as they hyped it, I hadn't been hearing very good things about it, that it was breaking stuff left and right.

Well, I decided, what the heck. Can't be that bad, right?

WRONG.

Worked fine on first startup. Asked me to reimport meshes and textures, pretty standard. I've had to do that with every update, and I knew the devs were allegedly working on asset pipeline optimization and some other changes to 3D assets to make it less painful for bigger projects.

Long story short, it corrupted my entire project.

Thankfully, I was smart enough to back up my project before trying to convert over.

I might give them a chance if they release a 4.2.1 in good time, but I figure I'll just stick with 4.1.2. There isn't anything that I simply must have from the new update in order to continue to work on my project.

PSA: BACK UP. BACK UP, BACK UP, BACK UP. THEN BACK UP ONE MORE TIME.

Oh no! Jelly blobs of doom!

They're only supposed to be the size of a mini-yux

But doesn't he look so much more prepared for adventure?

And yes, she is carrying a deer foot staff, modeled after one hanging in our house

Working on battles. A little different than last time, aesthetically, but still the same basic idea

Lots of modeling the last few days. Got some houses made, remade some of my terrain blocks (rebuilt the harbor), and started on the NPC models. Also worked on the battle system and the follower system, now with 1/10th the code but 10x more efficient

Long awaited weekends lay ahead of us☀

A perfect time to admire the views of Arkana! Build a cozy house on lake shore, cook your masterpiece of a dish, invite some friends to the table and together meet a picturesque sunset🌄

Decided to do some work on the save/load. Name, Chapter, and even Total Play Time CORRECTLY FORMATTED Will work on the chapter banners later. Free time formatting code below

New to Legion Hearts? Here’s what the game is all about.

Battle State Machine is working Player chooses what to do, enemies choose what to do, and they even have variable rates of attack/defend/flee. Next step will be to actually start dealing damage

Did some more work trying to fix up whatever went wrong and...yeah, let's just cut to the end where it didn't work

Started a new project, made some changes, derped around a little, made this cute little guy

we're back into track!

Today's accomplishments include a rather smooth state machine, a functioning opening cutscene, and name input. It's not pretty, but there aren't any bugs
