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

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

ALL THE MAPS (including the special secret areas) are DONE! And I've written the entries for more of the wisps, so that's the bar I'm gonna be working on filling next!

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

AND AFTER A VERY INTERESTING MONTH THE OTHER WISP LORE SPOT IS DONE! Sorry about the long wait, I moved jobs, got covid, some big bills, but this was the worst of it! Progress is back!

We're almost there, there's barely anything left to go. I'm getting excited for it. I do have some medical things to deal with next week though, so progress (and so the next update) may be delayed

I've almost completely finished all of the sprites that I needed to custom make! Honestly it was the category I was expecting to take the longest of all the resource parts. It definitely took the most focus, but here we are!

The maps are all done, and the game will be done soon. All that's left is coding the events, the ending cards, getting the sound effects and implementing them.

The ending cards aren't fully polished enough for the bar but I did make some good progress on creatures and the spider room entirely!

All of the wisps are drawn out for their page graphics! I'll work on the sprites next, then the extra details not on the page, so after the next update following updates may be slow. I'm admittedly not sure I'm ready to be done with my favorite project...

Sorry about the late update, got hit with some health stuff. Still making progress though!
