Update! (Hope you didn't think the game was dead)
Since I'm sorta lazy to make gifs, nor do I want to update the game itself (People always say it's unavailable, anyhow), I'll describe what I did:
I also found some bugs, these will be fixed later:
To do:
Story Progress - 70% done outline. 0% Text and writing finalization.
Since I'm sorta lazy to make gifs, nor do I want to update the game itself (People always say it's unavailable, anyhow), I'll describe what I did:
- Followers now use a position-list based formula to follow. This provides smoother movement, and prevents them from getting stuck in places players cannot move to
- Text speeds were slowed down, this is so text slowdown, to simulate speech, is actually visible.
- Some minor animation fixes on the Girl following character, she also has a minor change to her downwards corner sprites, so she looks more consistent.
- The game is now in 3:2. People will hate it, yes? But I felt it to look a tad better than a square of 4:3. Text boxes have not been adjusted for 3:2. But were centered, instead. Some scenes have changed to fit the 3:2
- All text lines now start with "*", rather than "-". This is to make it easier on the eyes.
- Moving characters now have shadow sprites under them, they're also in a semi-alpha state, so they blend in a bit.
- Clouds on title screen were made to stand out less, as the cloud count was reduced. Another option was added due to larger screen space.
I also found some bugs, these will be fixed later:
- If you have the follower speak on command, then mash the talk button to the NPC, One line of text is skipped, the box closes, and then it opens and goes as normal
- Text goes nuts if you use the follower speaking, then walk and speak to a off-screen NPC. Only happens on one box, then goes to normal.
To do:
- Add a scene transition, rather than fade-outs.
- Some more animation fixes, tweaks.
- More menu polish, fix up controller setup screen
- Add other characters.
Story Progress - 70% done outline. 0% Text and writing finalization.
