Working on another map.
You might want to watch it before you step into the deep end of this pool.
Been working on the area selection map for chapter 1 of my game.
It still randoms the space scene below the map which is still animated... Also the light placement is currently random as well. I might make it fixed for area selection maps though. Still random did pretty solid.
So I was testing out an online map builder... Not going to lie, fifteen minutes in I had this with pixel perfect hit detection. Color me impressed, it took that little time to learn.
Also yeah I know it's fairly barren... their free option offered very few graphics.
Still hard at work adding all of my notes to my World Anvil. Turns out there are almost 70,000 words in those notes... Super glad I decided to do this, it's doing wonders for my organization and the game's direction. Plus when I'm done I'll effectively have a website for my game to link people to.
So apparently World Anvil is actually 30% off at the moment... After watching half a hour of videos and playing with their software for another half hour... Yep, I'm in. Time to make my very own private wiki full of secret world building knowledge.
Somewhere I messed something up and it's giving garbage image lookups... This one is my favorite though.
Today I learned my game apparently doesn't use any .png files.
Finally! I've been puzzling over why it wasn't working for two days now. Turns out all of my calculations were correct, I just forgot to give some events hitboxes. Now my randomly generated maps check for collision errors, and move stuff around in real time if they finds any.
I really get the feeling I should be doing regular YouTube videos whenever I make something cool in my game, instead of waiting for massive changes. But not going to lie... I always feel like it's never quite enough to merit an update, until it's a drastic change.
230 paths... roughly 250 light sources on the screen... One serious lag fiesta... But I finally got it all the screen at once. I guess I could have also just made an event to spawn each one in exactly the location I needed, but that's sooo much less fun.
I've been experimenting with improved memory management again, which allowed me to include items to increase player path length. These are both 44 grid spaces long, and stable.
Success, my character has harnessed the power of the particle, and now she leaves a speed streak.
I'm breaking up with QSprite.
I'm a bit conflicted. One the one hand, it's quite visually cool to make bodies of water that the player can interact with by going into it. However obscuring the player character from a gameplay perspective is pretty bad. Hmm... There's the option to make the area around the player visible, but then that kind of defeats the purpose of submerging them.
And then I figured out a way to doing a "regular animation" that's affected by PIXI particles. So now each frame of the animation gets particle effects. Soon my dreams of a world without QSprite will be realized.
Only 68,544 PVGames assets to sort though... And it's too late to go buy alcohol. Mistakes were made.
Huh, with the release of HUD Maker Ultra... I'm one plugin closer to my game being able to run on MZ.
I just realized, ever since MZ came out and they moved the MV board... I've almost never looked at it, unless a "Latest Thread" just happened to be in it. Honestly I kind of forgot it existed. All I ever seem to look at now are the Javascript boards and the "Latest" stuff, then I just wander off.
I was messing around with particles and made a pew pew sparkle laser.
Also I tested this game on my first gen Surface Pro (it's literally made of stone)... And er.. Anyway enjoy your 8 fps? Yeah... Going to need a graphics card or a much new APU for this game barring some kind of major changes.
So I've been testing disintegrating a map from left to right over about a minute and thirty seconds. And giving the player that long to drag stuff to a portal on the opposite side they'd like to keep, along with accomplishing any side objectives.
They can of course permanently abandon the map at any time,..... -

So I'm practicing ITC with a spirit box, and decide to try to contact my deceased soulmate. It actually gave me multiple identifiers. Me, still a bit skeptical, asked aloud "Fine but does he still love me?" and the box spoke and printed the word "Forever" at the same time. Been a mess of tears since.
Been scratching away at my game and making progress, but just had a revelation. I'm working in full screen and adjusting all my pictures accordingly, but will they resize if someone's screen is smaller?? I hope this doesn't turn out to be a problem later.
Hello humans! How goes your day in this journey of living? I hope it is good, for I am human like you, and I am feeling great! Worship the altar.
