Assist Skill, NPC Follow System
30/07/2023
Surprisingly, still found some input and gamepad bugs. Had to fix them (and struggle) for quite a while.
Hopefully I don't go through that hassle again
Finished creating the general structure of assist skills,
for now the default assist skill is just Mato himself doing a kick.
Will need to add more in the future as party members increase.
Assist skills that require 3 feathers will have a blast effect,
which will blast enemies to the other side, bouncing off an invisible wall.
During this state, inserting Left Punch or Right Punch at the appropriate timing
will result in a dunk-combo.
Really enjoyed creating the shock-wave effect,
thanks to Sasquatch B Studios for the informative tutorial!
Blast-Dunk Combo
Created a follow system for a NPC, thinking of creating a mini escort quest.
NPC Follow System
This was unexpectedly hard to implement : jittery movement issues and sprites flickering etc.
Still, finally a smooth cat movement!
Really happy with how it turned out.
