Late last night and this morning, I pivoted to working on the map.
Now I've made MORE progress and it's VISUAL! This tickles my brain. The game map now shows you where you are in comparison to the next story quest. It needs testing tho cuz it's very stylized

In the refrain of my life, yesterday, it took longer than I thought to implement the collectible NPCs but I did figure out how I'm gonna do it.
Today, I will continue with Olivinne and then maybe Map lol

Okay, I have most of my combat mini-game. The last thing I need is better signifiers for the player -- 90% of it is gonna be in the NPC's appearance though. (This pile of hay was not originally gonna be for combat lol)
I am pretty pleased with this though!

+1. Radian doesn't use LLMs or gen AI. All our work on GHPC is done by hand using our own skills and the plethora of community resources that the LLMs scraped in the first place. To hell with these tech slop grifters.
We don’t use generative AI at Strange Scaffold and I can confirm that a *lot* of other studios are not—whether indie or AAA.
Get outta here with this normalization bullshit.

OK so what we're learning is flavor text takes forever. I also finished doing audio for my video. Tomorrow, I'm moving locations but then I'll smash out the video, I think AND MAYBE we can do the 1 more diary to complete this area :O

It's already 3 days into November 🫠 The days are MELTING together like mush🫠🫠🫠
Yesterday tho, I did art. And I think that was the correct course of action to shift to while my brain is soup here! Today, I'll continue art unless I feel good, then I continue puzzles.
