Hoping to put in some time on this today after I get my contract work done (hooray for Sunday), but as an update on scope...
What works now:
- Movement (though it's pretty much superfluous)
- Destroying planets though a control panel UI
- Opening and closing text crawls
What will additionally work by the end of the jam:
- Dialogue
So... it's definitely not what I wanted it to be, and even the premise has changed a bit, because I'm going to leave it the way it is (destroying Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars rather than anything in-universe). But I'm OK with that; I've learned a fair bit about Unity, and this has pushed me to actually use it more, which is great.
Hoping to get some fun dialogue in, since that should be relatively simple once the dialogue system is in place.
