DAY 1
I got a lot more done today than I thought! Here is what I have so far:
-A main menu:
When you start the game I have a main menu. There is a play button to start the game, an info button to go to an info page about the game, and an exit button to close the game. The info page has a back button. They get bigger when you mouse over them and bark when clicked, in addition to their assigned task. I need to make a menu button for easy access back here from the game.
I also got the dancing scene set up, though I need to make a better background. The witch dances when you press the arrow keys, but it doesn't create any value to be used for donut shenanigans yet. There is music here but I think I need to adjust the volume levels. There is also a whistle sound effect for whenever you do a move.
I also set up the eating scene, which also needs a better background. The witch can move left and right but is blocked from running off the screen. I have a donut object set up with a placeholder image, but it still needs to be set to add to the multiplier when eaten. For now it falls from the sky and can be eaten. Eating it displays an effect, makes a munching sound effect, and causes the item to disappear. It also poofs away if it hits the floor before you can catch it.
I also added a broccoli item, which knocks you on your butt for a second. I might change the sprite for falling over and also have it penalize you more, since right now if doesn't count for much. May also add an alternate sprite so that sometimes it is a shoe instead of broccoli, but we shall see.
That's about everything I did on day one! Hopefully day two will also be productive, but then I have to face the donut shenanigans....
