When you don't know about copyright laws when it comes to fonts, you either take a chance, or make your own.

Of course, in the world of sprite art, that doesn't leave many options.

Due to top-down levels working a little differently, it took me a bit to get motivated to program and animate Pinafore in five directions. (Three of these directions are mirrored for a total of eight.)

Unfortunately, that's the easy part.

Something in the plan for this game will change. With any luck, it will be a change for the better.

Possible default protagonists, Charlie (guy with hat) and Bonnie (girl with dress). Using a similar palette, because I can.

I would alter the faces, but I like appeal, and without the pixel-noses, they'd look like chibis at that size.

Updated HUD, HP system, and other collectibles! (including the bunnies)

I got the keyboard and gamepad input-changing in here.

Try to keep track of the difference between using strings (for the labels on each key) and using actual variables (how the game interprets inputs).

I know. It looks pretty much the same as before. I just needed the motivation to do more with it.

...and an excuse for all sorts of robots at a convention to be attacking Pinafore, specifically.

Does anyone want sprite fonts? Here's a starter pack.

Good luck assembling it, and modify it any way you want.

...let me be honest, the convention level isn't working well as a platformer.

So, I think I should add top-down sections. The combat would work about the same. I think you shouldn't jump in top-down mode, so sliding will take its place there.

In case anyone forgot, robots explode.

So do robot maids.
