I was very happy with how my game came out overall (Banished is what it's called) But I had planned on a rain-world-like audio system for it. Those of you who have played rain world know what I mean and those of you that haven't have missed out on the greatest indie game ever created and that ever will be created. For those that have played but don't remember: In rain world the sound changes realistically depending on where the player is. When underwater all the sounds muffle and it plays bubbly sounds that are mind blowingly realistic. I had all of this planned out for mine too. When you start Banished there are a lot of birds singing in the trees and the occasional hog or goat calling in the distance, and the music in the background is calm and somewhat foreshadowing. Well that's how the sound ended up being accross the whole game. But it was supposed to change when you went underwater to a bubbly drumming music and sounds of bubbles and water flowing and whales and fish calling, and when in a cave the music would be deep and ominous, and the sounds in the background would change to stalactites dripping and wind howling through the caverns and the padding of unseen feet through the dank floor... alas I had not time. I even got so far as downloading the sound fx but couldn't impliment them. Ah well I'll update it later.
There was also no save system because Godots "store_var()" function isn't working. When I found that out I decided it was impossible to save and load my game data but then I found out that "store_string()" is working so now I have to convert all my data to strings, store it to file as a string, and then when loading it I have to read the file as text, put the text (sting), into y variables, and finally convert back to floats, Vector2s, and bools, from those stings. So yeh really inefficeint for the computer and for me so I still don't have it working totally cause it's just so tedious. But i do plan to do it in the future.
If you've read this far thank you for wasting your tie with me. If you would like to waste more of you time I would really apriciate ratings on  Banished (Again you can find it here) Thank you for your time and energy!
