There is no only one perfect way, but I think maybe you can add a bar that indicates how close people are to looking at the player, or maybe when an NPC looks at the player, there will be a sound or an icon on the screen from which direction the NPC is looking at the player... there is more. I think it's a lot of trial and error. How long are you making games?
Glad you had a good time! Game jams can be intense! It’s awesome you managed to finish the game on time. 😁
I enjoyed this one, too. I tried to keep it low-key, especially since the holiday gave us a few free days. I spent most of my time on shaders and level design—things I usually struggle with. Was that the first time you worked with the team you submitted with?
