Just thought we'd offer up a few smaller updates while working on the demo right now. As ever, animations are taking time to create and then implement. Quite an important problem has now been overcome however and that was the complexity of animation manager code which turned into a large tangled web when it got anywhere near tool animations. rather than account for each tool type at each charge level we now simply override a single set of animations with ones attached to item data now.
Next up
I know updates have been slow but there really isn't much to talk about when you're just tidying up existing code. We're looking at updating the art style to be just that bit nicer. The crop system working with an overhaul to interactions with tools.
Quick update on the project, Dialogue system has been rewritten from the old version of the game, functionally the same but a lot easier to use. The camera has been worked on and the inventory is being expanded with things like drag and drop.
I know it has been a while since the last update, but life got in the way. Here we can see how buttons can be customized and given functionality through the event system. More to come as the event system grows.
Finally, I've had some time to do some more work on the recode. There is hardly anything to see except for this utilitarian clock which can be swapped to 12 and 24 hours in settings. The lighting again changes through the day too.
Tall walls are all modeled and intergrated into the engine and work seamlessly with the previous two wall styles. actual wall skins for this set are incoming. A new test build featuring these changes will follow up soon.
Finally, you can sell the fruits/veg of your labour. :)
The red sock continues his wandering of the multiverse for an object of great power. Taking on a fellow traveller on his way.
Wall height is being adjusted to accommodate things such as stages and lighting while also giving animatronics more breathing space.
(Mines and menus preview build)
Available for testing now
Our latest efforts have been rewriting our scene change code and with that comes some lovely transitions made using a greyscale image and a new shader.
