A couple months ago I experimented with alternate health bar locations. notably on the side and on top of the screen. Ultimately I decided the current location was best, on the bottom of the screen.
There is a minor inconvenience where the players dead body can only end up in 4 directional positions. I'd like it to be diagonal too, but cant figure it out. Its probably for the best, because anti-aliasing when an object is at an angle in clickteam produces a mild blurring effect which I feel removes the crispyness of the pixel art.
Line 181 (did you know Insectoid is open source?)
Here is a floor texture thing and some eggs I made for the insectoid hive map art.
Below is a blandish geometric carpet pattern I made for the prologue hotel back in January of 2021. I also made an intricate arabian carpet which took a lot more effort.
I learned how to use the key/access menu for private beta builds on gamejolt, but since its been 9 months since the game had a public update on here I wonder if the average gamejolt enjoyer would prefer to play the beta no questions asked. I try to keep gamejolt updates feel significantly different from the previous, which means alot less frequent.
Right now if you want to beta test you have to reach out to me with your username and I will add you to the list and give you a URL. If you think anyone should be able to play the beta without a private key, let me know and I will make it public.
