prototyping is fun. i spent most of today rewriting my data structures and all that effort is COMPLETELY invisible from the outside.
lol. lmao
time for a break

a wild CONSIDERATION has appeared!
do i: load the whole world into a single 2d array and render/iterate it in chunks
instead of having it as small chunks which are each individual nodes that store their own contents
that said, the chunks WILL serve a gameplay purpose so maybe better to have them?

very small idea for a cute vtuber gimmick
a small model that runs around at the bottom of the screen and directs/gestures at the mouse cursor
would only work when the mouse is in use, but still. cute

continuity! not going to post a video of the character sliding around a blank grey field haha but the world initialization step is all working now, as is inter-chunk visual connection.
next on the list: first draft block breaking and placement.

was messing with curve-based camera smoothing and found this fun little "sticky" camera setup!
the camera finds a point partway between the player and mouse, then samples a curve using the distance to a set max value in order to smooth its motion.

more musings | #sunfire_interactive #RitualGardens
going to start on broader world structure and player interaction soon. first off will be just making the world generate in its base form, then breaking and placing blocks.
not sure how i'll handle inventory yet either... remains to be seen.

First draft for the character sprite | #RitualGardens #sunfire_interactive
Not sure just yet if i want to go for this lineless style, it fits the tone quite well but i'm more used to using outlines for my spritework.

idle thoughts about the new prototype | #sunfire_interactive
1. i think i will make chunks 24x24 in size. i like how divisible it is, and 8x3 is a useful set of divisions.
thought about 30 or maybe 36 but neither feels as clean.
kinda too bad i couldn't squeeze a 5 in, but it'd get too big.

i have decided to actually properly set up my linux partition now
here's hoping it doesn't cause any problems with NTFS drives if i switch between it and windows! that's like the one thing that's been making me hesitate so far.

see now the smart thing to do would be to go steal the character movement script from that old platformer prototype i made that partially inspired me to make this new prototype into a platformer.
am i going to do that?

godot has decided that obviously i want to start up the script editor with the files panel closed for some reason.
i don't... so i guess i just have to open it myself now? weird.
