Let me start off this blog report with a "oh my god".

I didn't expect all of the monster's and player's animations to take so long. It was so annoying moving something to only have to undo the frame because it didn't look right. So, because of this, I have come to despise animating humanoid sprites. Almost everything has been extremely simplified but everything is still recognizable.

These are some of the sprite-sheets that I have made over the past couple of weeks.

 At this point, I am currently learning Godot so no coding progress has been made just yet. I have been looking online about 2d-platformer procedural generation and it is starting to seem like a daunting task for me to accomplish. As for music and sound effects, I have officially decided that I don’t have enough time for me to actually make them. So, I will be scouring the internet to find royalty-free music and sound effects to use in my game.

Overall, I am a bit behind schedule on the deadlines for my game but I believe that I can, at the very least, create a playable game. So, I am currently going over and learning how to code in GDscript and it seems very similar to JavaScript and Python. I am aiming to start coding this week but no later than next week.

Game Development Update

The goal on the action plan for the two weeks was to create a game outline to help streamline the production process. It includes all of the different assets and gameplay mechanics that I want to be included in my game. First, I went online and looked at some of my favorite rogue-likes and used them as a reference point. I create an outline for what I want my game to look like and play like. I wish to incorporate items and an ability upgrade tree. Due to the inherent complexity and the potential of a large time investment in that mechanic, I have cut down on the amount of playable characters and the amount of enemies that will be trying to end your run. For the base game, I have created the basic list of items that I wish to incorporate into my game. Additionally to these items, I have added a brief description for what I want the items to do for the player. Due to the overall simplistic but important game outline, I have started to create assets that are going to be used for the game....

First Step onto creating a game

For the past two weeks I have just been watching videos about basically everything I need in order to create a video game in Godot. There are tons of videos and tutorials for video game creation but surprisingly there is sparse information on music creation. To remedy this, I have ask Mrs. O'Connor, the Digi-Beats teacher, about music creation and if I could contact her about some question that might get during my development process.  There are tons of videos on how to use Godot and how to code in GD script. Overall, the coding process seems very similar to JavaScript and has the structure of Java's object oriented programing. It has a tree-like structure with parents nodes and child nodes. I will predict that coding will probably be the least difficult part of game creation due to the overwhelming amount of information and guides. Although there aren't as many videos on the creation of pixel sprites as how to use Godot, it has enough for me to feel comfortable to start th...
