Working On Big Changes


Today, I worked for about 6 hours on this, making some bigger changes than usual. I re-evaluated the gameplay and uses for some things.

I removed the purple spray from the game and just changed it all to water because it was annoying having both.

I also added a water meter instead of the spinning cylinder because it just looked bad and changed the water particles to drops instead of squares.

I changed the lights to be more apparent.

I also decided to add a few new things to the game… little pop-up flowers, fish, crops, and grass.

I got rid of the moss blocks because they weren’t obvious at all and didn’t add much. I modified the player collision to work better.

I still have a lot to work on, and there are some bugs, so I won’t be uploading a build right now. I’m only stopping because it’s kind of late and I have school tomorrow.

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)
