July 5th update

 I have 3 basic customers for now. I haven't really figured out how I want to match their likes and dislikes. Will stuff that they like be tied to their physical appearance/type or it'll just be something they're talking about?

The current system is just a single personality such as Birdwatcher (likes birds, most types of plants, more tolerant of messiness) or High class (likes classy environments, dislikes mess - so birds/animals are a no as are the random messes that show up). Maybe I could introduce styles as a separate "personality" since some customers are clearly femme/butch/tomboy/in between. Hopefully I'll get some input from playtesters. At one point I'll implement a rng system where certain classes of customers will pick randomly from a set of models.

 I also need to make a couple of different face styles as well as different body types - but that'll require a different base mesh, so for now it'll just be 3 simple customers so I can get a demo out. I still have to finish making some basic animations for them (intro walk in, idle, idle fidget, leave). 

(The redhead is temporarily using Morgan's front hairpiece since I need a break from hair modeling)


Still have one more customer I'm working on, a butch with her design based on Corky from Bound, so more on the casual butch side. I have a whole bunch of suit models I made a long time back so there's still space for some more formal butches. I'm still messing with the hair. Probably need to work on some tattoos too.

March 31 Update - Optimizations

Image
I added a script that would save all enemy positions and added interactable object support to my collider script (which was just looking for any object with Armature in the name and replacing it with the specific tscn file). I generalized how I was loading enemies as well. I took another dive into optimization and all I could find was it was almost all physics related. I'm already using Godot Jolt which gives a bit of improvement, and using spheres for enemy colliders. But the biggest factor was reducing the number physics steps per frame. I still have to test how this is going to affect the raycasts, but it was all move_and_slide's issue.  I also started modeling the gatherer. My thought processes on this one was it wouldn't make any noise, aside from dragging its sack since it has no mouth and it has copious numbers of eyestalks since its purpose is to find food but not for itself. in progress

Nov 6 Update - random attack experimentation

Image
 I added the ability for Sera to choose a random attack out of a category of attacks. This was great for her counterattacks. Its not so easy to bait her into an attack and get the timing exactly right when there's two different attacks with different openings. Also longer range attacks with wider horizontal range is really nice as well, just makes her challenging. She also has some extra medium range attacks and a different counter attack now for more annoyance. Also the block was slightly bugged earlier, now it fully works so she blocks all the time except during vulnerable windows. In addition, a successful dash counterattack results in a full combo on the player so she shreds hp quicker. In the video below you can see how the same trick (homing dash that gives a bit of invincibility that's broken against the dash counterattack) doesn't work the same since the window of vulnerability is at a different time. The homing dash has to be used a bit later so the player doesn...

Nov 11 Update

I could not update for a while, but I am back with a massive update. The map has been reworked to have less rooms so I could really focus on the few puzzles the first floor has. Most puzzles are finished except the last one. Tons of bugs fixed. User friendly stuff like ammo count has been added - this isn't a survival horror though it takes some influence from that genre. I got the chance to have some playtesters try out the game (thank you very much to them!) and have added some of their suggestions to the game - will be adding more if I have more time before the YuriJam deadline. Bugs that were found by the playtesters were also fixed. More environment models and another entity has been added. Bunch of flavor text for random objects so it feels a bit more like the classic rpgmaker horror games which I've always liked. I'm still tweaking the writing since there's a lot of it I don't quite like. There's also some music and sound effects, but I feel like some of ...
