Hey ! It looks great already. What's the concept ?
Viewing post in The Block Devlog halfway point
As of right now, it is kind of like the zelda OoA/OoS trading side mission, where you get items and trade them around. the shop will have something that the main character wants (Im thinking something like a bus pass to leave the block), so he will have to trade his way up to that item. I'm expecting the whole game to take 5 minuets max, but I am going to have to have a lot of dialogue, which is the one thing that I have no practice with . well, not a LOT of dialogue, just 1-2 sentences before you trade, and a different sentence after you trade. but it will be a lot of variables
I have a rudimentary menu, but will add the 'current item' to it soon. Might put a time limit in if it is too easy, since you will miss the bus is you don't get there in time
I SHOULD be using the yarn editor in engine (I am building in GDevelop), but I don't know if I have time to get it working with such small dimensions, so I, as of right now, plan to just make a 'text layer' and have it switch between sprites that have the text on it. Each character will have a text sprite, and interacting with them will check the associated veritable (may just have one, and each time you trade it goes up by one integer), and if it is above the number it plays animation 1, and if it is below the number if plays animation 2. it will be a lot more work that way, but that is the only way I can think to do it in limited time with my limited skillset
