Malevolent Planet 2D - New Mechanics & Fixed PC
Added 2022-09-14 11:25:06 +0000 UTCHey! Things are finally taking off. Spent a few days back and forth rebuilding the drawing PC and setting everything up. Luckily, it ran on the first boot, but had to open the PC again to connect the front audio panel.
So, because the "drawing PC" is back and active, scenes can finally be drawn in addition to more complex artworks such as animating character movements.
Everything listed below can be clicked for more information, redirecting to the trello card for that listing. Here's what's been happening:
- Added two quest/events to the ISA Garden map. The Aphrodisiac Flower Event and the Suspicious Grass Quest.
- Made camera fade effects faster when you move between rooms (thanks to bearcore for the suggestion) You can click the link to see a video of how fast the camera fade is right now.
- Integrated a new mechanic, quest/event indicators. For now I'll use Exclamation Marks more for events, but I think they'll be used for quests too.
- Redesigning the Quest Log Window. Still WiP.
This is what I'm working on right now:
I need to figure out how to render the characters so that they're composed of more sprites/images, not just one. It's a bit difficult with their walking animations because the clothes also get deformed a bit while walking.
Thank you for your attention!
