THE WISPS HAVE A LANGUAGE!
This took forever since originally I was going to try to make it into an actual font, and just import that into the game, but after MONTHS of on and off attempts at this I gave up and am now just drawing the words into the text box manually. It'll take much longer than my original plan but it'll be a lot easier.
You won't be able to talk to every single wisp (in reality it'll only be two) but some will talk for lore purposes. You'll be able to find what is essentially a "cheat sheet" to translate their speech. There wont be any spaces in between the words, but words won't be cut off by the end of the line, so the end of a line will definitely be the end of the word.
Example:
wouldnt happen:
ifoundthisweirdfirecreatureanditkeepstealingalltheshinyrocksf
rommyyard.
would happen:
ifoundthisweirdfirecreatureanditkeepstealingalltheshinyrocks
frommyyard.
Next up
All the sprites that I needed to hand sprite are now done! I'l be honest I was expecting those to take the longest, but here we are!
I thought I updated last week, I apologize. I've mainly been working on the ending cards, and I've been making some good progress
Basically all the maps are finished! So that's a decent part of the game done! The most tedious part anyway.
The entries are done! I've started doing the paper designs for the rest of them and that's going pretty fast too! I'll definitely be dropping off for a bit though. Something big is coming up that I want to focus on, so I'll be back after that
All the sprites are finally done! Updates will probably be slow for a while though. I have some dentist appointments coming up, so I won't be able to focus on the game.
So the medical stuff was/is more complicated than I was expecting, but things are pretty well at the end. I'm mainly just adding the last bits of polish and code
The sprites and graphics are getting done much faster! I found a nice spot at a park and it's really helping my productivity
The wisps are all finally designed on paper, which was honestly the hardest block for me so far. I'll try to work on the extra details that aren't on the progress sheet in between working on the graphics and sprites.
I HAVE ONE OF THE LORE SPOTS BUILT WITH THEIR LANGUAGE! I swear it won't look like that in game, this is just showing the work. At first I hated that the letters didn't look as good if I kept them level, but the uneven-ness gives it a cute look i think
Sorry about the late update, got hit with some health stuff. Still making progress though!
