Okay.  Finally finished the game.  It wasn't how I wanted it to go, but at least I finished it.  yay.  Game's at https://sirfireshire.itch.io/riddlock

Didn't accomplish much over the past several days.  Got the walking and jumping somewhat done and added the title and mansion to the main menu.  The colors on the title seem a little too bright though.  The second part doesn't quite convey it, but it's the start of starting a dialogue where the character can't move during it.

Didn't get much done.  It seems that I may have to review the engine, but I got a small walking animation for my character as well as a standing/idle sprite, some sprites of various objects, and I implemented the main menu song.  The doors took longer than it should have.

Gotta work on the layout of the levels and a few characters.  I think I initially planned to make this a platformer, so I may work on a jump animation.  That's all for today.

Since this will be my first game, I decided to do something simple.  I Don't know how much I will get done with it.  Right now, I have been working on the menu, and while there are somethings I want to finish with the menu, I think I will leave them for later.  The core part of the game (gameplay, sprites, backgrounds, etc.) still needs to be worked on as of the time this first post.

Here is what I have so far, but as resources.  They aren't yet implemented into a functional setting.  The engine I am going to use is Godot.

Menu:

The Title I plan to put over the trees and put a Mansion in that open space on the right.

Music:

I've split Curiousness into sections so that it can be repeated at parts.  My goal for tomorrow might be to implement the sections and make sprites and backgrounds.  I might work on the title and mansion tomorrow since it shouldn't be too difficult.

Hello.  My name is SirFireShire and I am not quite new to making games, but the last time (and only time) I made a game was for a summer class about a decade ago.  This will be my first jam in general, and I wanted to do this jam to hopefully expand my knowledge on the programming side and create a decent game.  I don't really have a favorite game nor a favorite genre.  I'm not good at fighters or any sort of strategy games, but I enjoy watching others play them.  Dark Souls and games like it are mostly the games I like to play, but shooters like battlefield also interest me.  What made me want to make a game, though, was seeing many indie games made with fairly high quality like Spooky's Jumpscare Mansion, Subnautica, and various other indie games.  I have a small passion for art, whether it be cartoony or painted with realism.  Just don't expect me to be able to do either.  My goal for this jam is to complete a part of a game, like an animation or physics or anything substantial for a game.
