I have been doing menu UX for the past 5-6 weeks, slowly working my way toward manual action selection.
Tons of new things sampled in this clip, but highlights are:
- Unit "intent" cards, debounced menu nav
- Hex position indicators
- Cross hotbars
- Battle speeds (Auto, 2x, Wait, "Semi-wait")

Finally finished the refactor to compose unit logic from data. That one was a doozy, but it means two things:
- I can support "intelligent" target selection for heals
- The code to support it is scalable.
- Most importantly, the code will support player customization.

I loved this game! Never finished it. I learned a few year back that it was scored by the composer from the FF Ivalice games.

Took Monday/Tuesday off work and the weekend got a bit wild.
I'm making a system similar to FFXII's gambits, and to support it I have to convert battle logic to a configurable data structure.
This is one of the most crucial pieces of software design in the project.

First pass finished on the Lifebinder unit class!
With this, I have both channeling and projectile action components working. Next is restorative and status components, and then I can move on to UI and ability trees.

Been working on a hybrid healer unit type all week.
Had to refactor actions so they compose from data, that way I can do more interesting things with them. I should have magic channeling & projectile actions soon.
