Demo 7 <3

WASD to move

E = interact (dialogue)

I = inventory

Q = navigate inventory

P = sonar pulse (in level 1 only)

Oops that's a lot of keys :')

Whats New!

Day 20 ~ (pt 2)

Day 20 ~

Day 19 ~

-Worked more on GameManager

-Continued working on echolocation shader

(not much visually changed but in the scripts most of the get first node from group have been removed :> )

Day 18 ~

-making GameManager

-making echolocation shader :>

Day 17 ~

I worked on making the ui click-friendly, such as on the main menu and on the inventory

For the 10th time there are issues where the player and enemy get stuck together ;-;

Demo 6 ~

:>>

Shiba 15/30 ~

-added jellyfish animations!!!

-added thicker outlines to a bunch of sprites

-added buttton for inventory

-fixed player collisions

Shiba Day 14~

I made the player outline thicker so it looks better under the shader :>

Shiba Day 13/30

-Added fade in + fade out for scene changes

-Dealt with lots of resetting for scene change

-Added pictures for characters during dialogue

Shiba Day 11

The SOTS grind is back on (doubling up on games now!!)

I added the shader change, fixed rotations for enemies, and created the map background :>

Some weird things were going on because I loaded a new scene but the references to variables in some scripts did not update. I'm manually updating each reference now but idk if thats the most effecient method :')

Working on level 1!!!! (finally)

Adding tunnels that rotate and disorient you :) The game will kind of be like a maze in the end?!

Demo 5~

After almost 2 weeks, a new demo is finally out!!!

New things:

-Inventory with hotbar

-Shield and dagger items (though you don't really need them haha)

-Better enemy difficulty level?

-Dialogue with 2nd whale

Made the enemies not spawn in your face! Also dealt with the weird collider issues when the shield initializes (the colliders get to me every time ;-;)

Cleaned up a lot of the art and ui! I added little sparkle animations that I'm really happy with :>

Added shield item!!! (The visuals are getting more and more scuffed as I keep on procrastinating on drawing assets TT)

Also made adjustments for feedback including making the enemies less OP and fixing the case where you get trapped. Thank you everyone for the feedback :)

Finished a basic draft of adding items to the hotbar!

I finished a draft of the main menu and am now working on the hotbar again! I'm using so many key inputs aaa

I added some AudioStreamPlayer2Ds so that the sound changes based on where you are in the map! I also made more bullets fly out :>

(I scrapped my old attempt at the hot bar which is why i have a ton of errors right now TT)

Demo 4~

New: Updated map, enemies turn into random items (inventory still not set up ;-; ) fixed collisions + deaths, enemies spawning, shooting in 3 directions

I still haven't gotten to adding the maze and echolocation mechanics :')

Randomness Devlog 6~

I'm in the process of making a hot bar but its a bit of a struggle since I keep on seeing different methods online

(technically I would be above 14 hours rn if I uploaded my artlogs but I want to finish the hotbar first)

Randomness Devlog 5~

I made the player shoot in 3 directions + finished the environment (I'm really happy with how it turned out!) Now I'm going to work on an inventory :)

Randomness Devlog 4~

I got burnt out for the past 2 days :( I got to really lock in now

I'm working on rebuilding the environment and adding collisions to the tilemap (somehow i can't figure out how to do it TT)

Day Three of Randomness~

(plus extra 40 minutes to make up for day 1)

I added a charge bar for shooting and restrictions so its not so easy to kill the enemies. I was trying to make you able to shoot in the direction of the mouse, then I realized that won't be possible on an arcade machine :(

Day Two of Randomness~

I added random images when the enemies die! They are just random images from my files loll

Also made an enemy spawner so there are more of them!

Day One of Random :)

I'm playing around with shaders to create a surprise (hint: this game isn't just going to be cute and bubbly)

its pretty pixelated though, since i want the white parts to stay white TT

for the random part: I plan on adding either random abilities you get from killing enemies

Third Demo (Updated) ~

Now there is slightly more game play, yay! There are bad blobs that will chase you, so you've got to shoot them (drawing shooting animations is a future problem for me loll)

Have fun swimming around!

WASD - move

E - interact

X - dash

Space - shoot

Added enemy health and messed with the bullet direction (I can't get it to point in the direction of the mouse TT )

I reset the scene when you respawn + fixed the flipping collisions (when the character changes direction, its collision shapes does also, except its not symmetric which causes weird things to happen)

I added the heart and wave art + finally fixed the collisions (debugging with collision shapes visible is very useful)

So my enemy bouncy collisions were behaving weirdly (not bouncing, bouncing to hundreds of pixels away) and I was trying to figure out why. Unfortunately, I couldn't fully fix it and I need to sleep now :')

I did also add health hearts at the top!

I added a very scuffed shooting mechanic + spent a long time messing with scales and speeds to try to make the map smaller. The game takes so long to load, so hopefully this has improved things!

Second Demo ~

I added an enemy with some quick placeholder art, with bouncy collisions and sound effects. Next thing, I'll add hearts and attack mechs :D

WASD - move

E - interact

X - dash

I made bouncy collisions for when the player hits the enemy (inspired by deeep.io lol) This took way longer than it should have because I mixed up the functions of collision layers and masks TT

Started drafting an enemy that follows the player!

Update on first demo~

I fixed a couple of things from my first demo, including the dialogue manager and screen resizing. You can talk with the whale now!

(Apparently the error was only in the audio so all that time I spent scrutinizing the dialogue manager was for nothing loll)

WASD - move

E - interact

X - dash

First Demo~

After 5 hours of debugging I finally fixed one of my many build errors TT

The dialogue manager worked in the editor, but I had to disable it because it was causing build errors. So you will miss out on some whale puns :') At least the audio works now!

I still need to implement a lot of mechanics so all you can do right now is swim around. I'm pretty happy with how the ocean turned out though~

enjoy the vibes~

Added audio manager and started working on final player movement animation~

Added ocean swaying shader! I want to also add a lighting shader later on :D
