Night”

I’ve done the basic layout of every area in the world and linked all the maps up properly. Hurrah! Next up is making lots of Daremon to populate it. Then adding trainers everywhere.

Busy, busy…

I’ve written a pretty extravagant event system with dialogue boxes, world objects, other characters to interact with and trainers that catch you to battle. Also done map switching.

I’m done with most of the real game writing code, it’s world building and content making from here on out.

My battle system is finished!!

I’ve got fighting, capturing, running away, experience gaining, leveling up and the strength progression that goes with it.

Happy times.

Now I have a lot of work to do on the overworld and tons of content creation. (Lot’s of Daremons to make!)

Ever get the feeling that you’re in way over your head?

I have a basic tile editor, tile drawing, character walking about and a 4 direction walk cycle.

Probably the worst walkcycle I’ve ever drawn but whatever.

THIS IS YOUR FAULT

Well that was a fun little distraction!

I have done other LDs, but that was before the site switched to WordPress and I don’t actually have them anymore.

what is it

I’ll be using Python with my Myrmidon library, which in-turn is backed by PyOpenGL and PyGame. I’ll probably end up using bits from Frimkron’s pythonutils library. (It’sa very nice.)

If I can be arsed to get it working again I’ll be timelapsing with pycatcher.

Any music and sound effects I inevitably end up doing will be created with Propellerhead’s Record as usual.

Here’s hoping i finish this time, I’m thoroughly embarassed by my last escapade.
