Devlog - February 2022 - Pt. 1
🕑 Added 2022-02-15 22:14:33 +0000 UTCSo been working a little on some mechanics for the game, and then some stuff happened that delayed things a bit.
Simply put my new Gaming PC arrived and for the most part it appears to be working very well. the company that made the PC did a lazy job at packaging my PC so the Case got a tiny bit damage (no big deal). Along with that the PC was lacking some exhaust fans so I had to go to a store and pick up/install some in. Lastly sense was custom Built instead of factory Built, I can't help but question if the machine was properly put together and the components are good when you come across any possible issue when using the PC. For example, the PC seems to not want to have any connections with my devices (Monitors/Mouse/Keyboard) during and after I put the PC to Sleep. I am looking into what is going on with that, but still not getting any answers yet.
Other then that other delays that happened that was do to my new PC was just the common task of transferring and installing my stuff into the new piece, and reorganizing my work station to accommodate the new PC and devices for it.
Anyway before my new PC arrived I did had some time programming some new systems for the game. One of the things is making some new traps for the game, one being weak stone tiles that crack when you hop on them for the first time while they completely collapse when you hop on them a second time.
Another thing that I programmed in the game is the "Spirit" Mouse Cursor. For those that don't know the Spirit is an optional gaming feature in the game. The spirit doesn't affect any of the core gameplay that players need to beat the game, but rather its used in side activities such as finding/collecting Game Collectables/Unlocks and unlock secret rooms that Yui can explore and reveal more of the games Story/Lore.
I have posted some videos on my Discord showing these systems.
I still have to work on this stuff, and still have some organizing to do with my new PC, but hopefully before the month ends I'll have at least a test build for my supporters to mess around with the new systems put in.
One final note, Tsinji has been busy with other work, so him working on the 2D art is taking awhile, but he has been slowly getting more and more time to do some animation work for the game.
Here is a work in progress on one of the 2D animations for the game.
