Game Dev Update! 06/15/2018

Hey folks!

Time flew by pretty quickly. Oh crap.

I'm still stuck creating the menu system I have in mind. Good new is that I think I'm getting to the halfway mark. I kinda knew it was going to be messy again, and yeah, it sucks to do this again, but it has to be done D: . I think the titlescreen was done over several updates, too, so while I think I can get it done faster than before, it's still going to take me some time. So what do I have right now? Basic CRUD stuff (create/read/update/delete) on windows and buttons. There's still the masked containers (the list), sprites, and text to do. Then there's managing which window gets the input's attention and those all those input events. Fuck. lol! Awful UX stuff... that has to be done from scratch T____T. 

I'll take a short break from this first and prep up the build update for the full version of the RnO game, seeing as how it's working without a hitch it seems for that demo version I threw out there a few days ago. I've heard from at least one of you folks that the game, for some reason, is seeing the game play larger than the expected resolution. In this case, the screen resolution was 480 x 854? The game is supposed to be able to scale down all the way to 360 x 640. The ratio's the same, so it's supposed to show the game in full. I'm not sure what to do with that yet, but I'll take a look.

I'm still waiting for word on our artists for a fixed version of the pics given to me. I'm starting to have some doubts about this, and if I don't get updates from them by the time this month's about to end, I'll have to seriously think about taking over the art. The art style may change again. I'm thinking of which aspect of the style to keep and which to throw out if this should happen...
