Post Jam update 0.2.0!
The Last Dot » Devlog
Hey everyone! This is the update for after the game jam! I changed a lot of under-the-hood things, fixed some graphics, and made the gameplay slightly better. Unfortunately, my solution for making "Sac-man" avoid the ghosts still hasn't come to fruition, but overall I have still learned a lot while implementing the changes I've made.
Here's the patch notes (Which are also included in the game files):
Features:
- Minor graphical tweaks
- Made gameplay music quieter
- Made "Sac-man" faster so now the player just barely outruns it
- Removed Berry collision which used to make player, ghosts, or "Sac-man" float above the map when spawned right on them.
- Camera zoomed out for better visibility
- Camera's spinning animation removed for better visibility
- Moved berry button to top left of screen
- Made ghost spawning random (To an extent)
- Changed "Start" button texts on lose and win screens to "Menu"
Dev-side:
- Fixed player spawn mechanic
- Optimized Ghost collision and display
- Fixed camera location from being parented to the player to a script that places where it needs it, then parents in logic bricks
- switched many features from bricks to script, mainly ones that depended on randomization
Again, thanks to everyone that played my game and gave me feedback on how to make it better!
