TNG rewatch is going well.

I wanted to add some simple collectible to #GetKeyOpenDoor but I didn't want the classic coin, so I opted for a small flame in style with the game. Damn, drawing animated flames is hard... This one isn't great but will do for now.

Here is an example of what I can do with the signal handlers from my previous post and a pressure plate that can also be activated by moving slimes.

During a brief holiday, I implemented entity signals with propagation, delay and signal queues to keep the player input sequence when there is a delay.

Here is a test with a lever as a signal producer and some blinking platforms as signal targets/propagators.

Another slime for #GetKeyOpenDoor. This one is on a roll! Making these pixels has become a sort of retreat from... *gestures at the world in general*
Now I need to bring them to life in a test level.

I'm enjoying drawing these little slimy #PixelArt foes for #GetKeyOpenDoor. I'm no artist, but at this resolution I feel like I can experiment within my limits. Gave the previous slime a red eye, to make it a little more menacing, and made it jump.

A running slime enemy.
Someone might find it cute, but better not try to pet it.

Update on #GetKeyOpenDoor progress. In short bursts, in the last few weeks, I have:
- Widened the resolution a bit
- Got a title screen and menu
- Added a transition showing elapsed time and number of deaths
- Started a few tutorial levels

Implemented ladders (they are HARD to get right), first hurting entity, death and respawn.

Hey everyone, remember the imp game thing? Because I've come up with a very clever title 😬

#GameDev #Defold #PixelArt

Folks, that imp thing has got a bit out of hand...

#GameDev #Defold #PixelArt

Mh... Made a running fire imp in 8x8 pixels. Do you like them? I like them. #PixelArt #GameDev

I made an experiment: I powered through my deep aversion for Lua and tried to rebuild everything I made for my kid's small game in #Defold. It took me a week, working in my spare time, as usual, and I also managed to make a mostly decent start screen.

You guessed right: frame sequences. Now the sprite animations are assets bundled in the content file like the rest. No more hardcoded rectangles in my code! Yay!
