So I've set the Underground (different to caves) to be generated by code now instead of being built in the room editor.

I really don't want to have to make a second array twice the size to add objects to the room, I have some ideas though.


-I could just make an array that lists the object types and their x/y values instead.

-I could put then in that original array and add something to the placement code to offset them based on their relative position (left side of room, shift to left side of the tile, top shift to top side of tile etc)

-I could just put them dead centre of the tile? That's not how buildings work on the Island, but meh!

-I could make new sprites that are tile sized?

Hmm

Oh, and that array? It gets destroyed after use by setting;

underground = -1;

So it's not stored in memory forever. Not a huge performance boost, but there's really no reason to keep it.

Reworked Beacons in the Ruins Progress

(Shitty slow tablet gifs)

They now spawn Enemies at intervals, once they've hit the cap it stops.

Then when you've killed them all it loops and decrements the wave count. When all waves are done you get loot!

The Halloween charges are back!!

Woop! When you destroy a chest it now drops all of its loot!

Dive into the cozy post-apocalyptic open world of Critter Cove!

Gentleman Rat Studios (@GR-Rob ) describe it as “a little bit Animal Crossing, a little bit Stardew Valley. Maybe even a little bit Windwaker, too."
