new enemy concept. player function and enemy function are currently the dev focus. reality fracturing and glitches are being used as an explicit game mechanic.
Next up
main menu controls work now. work on the new game start of setting the factions properties can begin now. after that, i can plug that info into the world generation, and we're off into gameplay.
limited working code for painting planets, not all the sections work right just yet, sadly.
new HUD and player test. endless terrain generation works in a basic test. exact tone of the world and setting is being refined more
testing the mood and ambience of things as i get player control systems wired into the text frontend.
good news: endless generation of multiple ships is possible, as is progression with travel
bad news: crossing a gap for five boring minutes is unacceptable
possible solution: no more spaceships? switch to endless terrain?
first item: more new enemies for the roster.
second item: level generation is now able to give the ship a stable hull. this took a while because as it turns out the math to determine "outside edge of the ship" was a bit more complex then first intended.
HUD test
the UI states work now.
*it's 2am, do you know where your O R B is?*
in serious news, the book progress continues but in the meantime, i figured i'd gamejam some horror during spooky season.
ship interior in full is coming online. this step is gonna take a lot of level design to fill in the possible results
