Time For A Ton Of Small Projects For Learning

Time for a ton of small projects for learning

What should i do first?

Game Development Adventures 7

I'm back!

We finally decided on a new level generation system, It's not coded yet but it doesn't need to be

so

Instead of randomly generating each level, we select one from a pool of premade levels

random enough!

but as we still only have 2 levels right now, we can't really do much about that yet

WE HAVE GRAPHICS NOW!!

This is the first level, and the first hint to the story! we have that now

Most of my work has been with the player, and his animations

Here he is!

we have animations for him to face all the 4 ways, but I've been having trouble figuring out how to get him to not freak out

My current idea is, if you draw a line from the player to the top of the screen, then draw a line from the player to the mouse, what is the angle of the mouse from the first line, using that, I can get him to face the right way.

The next level we need to make is the combat level, and I'm too tired to decide,

That should be all for now

for next time, I need to work on animations, level design, enemies, combat, and story.

anyways

Figured out how to make a sideblog

@yes-semicolons

I also want try to make a sideblog for off-topic stuff

but i have no idea how to do that

on an unrelated note why is there cuneiform and frogs on my dash

I should really write that devlog i’ve been putting off…

Short delvog so you know i’m not dead

There is a rats’ nest of an animation tree

Game Development Adventures 8

Big changes occurred, it may take me a bit to explain

So, In the year or so me and my partner have learned a lot, like, so much it was becoming painful to work on the project as it was. (It was bad) So we chose to start over, not from scratch, but close enough that we could work again

We left the main branch as it was, and started a new branch on the project's Github. Meaning we didn't lose any progress, if we want to go back

So, what's the current state of the game?

Well, it's not looking bad!

we have level 1

Level 2

And Level 3

(Blue boxes signify collision boxes, not sure why they're on level 3's path, they're only supposed to be on level 1's path)

The player has the ability to move, and is currently stuck in Idle animation

(That's an image not a gif)

There is currently no enemy, we haven't gotten to it yet, and out artist is still working on the sprites

Here's the player script

It's much simpler now, I've also decided to simplify animations by only having left and right animations

That should be all for the game for now, but

I've begun streaming when I work on the game

I'll try to notify you before I stream, I have no schedule
