No Gifts by Santa

hello and welcome to the third devlog of today, i now finally created the first basic version of the shop, now i just have to fill it up with stuff and then i can complete the next ship of version 2 of this game, with a lot more content and much more fun for longer :)

i really hope you like it, if everything works fine, i will be ready for the next ship until tommorow or if this dosent works out, at least at monday or thuesday.

Hey there, second devlog for today, i added a new design for the buttons in the setting menu (finally).

In the last devlog i forgot to mention that i added a new game background as well, this was why it was that much time, i added it as well in this devlog, so you could see what it actually looks like :)

hope you like that few new changes :)

Hey there, i know, long time not seen, but now i finally have time again, two days ago i completed my final course test for this half year (school year). and now i got back to finally working on this project :).

as i said do i want to create some sort of shop where you can buy more different items, as well as some upgrades for making the game easier over time. in order to create this shop, i made some basic graphics for the shop icon, shop fields for different sort of packs with each 3 items inside id, sorted by themes like farming, fruits, vegetables and so on. As well did i made a buy and a Out Of Stock shield graphic.

hope you like it as much as i do :)

Hey there i now officialy finished the first build of this project, there isnt that much content until now, but i think you will get the completly idea of the project, in the future we will ad as well the missing shop for more items.

i hope you like this Project as much as i do.

There is nothing more to say as: “happy new year and a lot of fun with the game :)”

Hey there, huge upgrade, i finnaly got myself to creating the main menu background with a lot of details, for this i used the scatch of my friend. as well i created a lot of images (44 in total) for the clock model i previous created, than i reworked this model, so we now have a working ingame clock for the game day. i as well created a viewmodel for the gameview so i now finally can create all the missing parts for playing at least level 1 of the game.

i really hope you like everything i created :)

Hello, in this final devlog for today, i created the last 12 out of 24 level button images for the level overview and evenly setup the first view created graphics into the game. i found out that i stil need to create the clock, gift and item graphics tomorrow, before finally creating the first level in its entirety.

i really hope you like all of this graphics, in them are a lot of personal and global easter eggs and secret meanings ;)

Hello, in this devlog i created the next 6 out of 24 level button images (7-12).

hope you like them as well, i tried to get faster and better in designing them to get this annoying design job even faster down while keeping an good quality.

hopefully this isnt the last devlog for today :)

Hello there,
today i created the drop mechanic, in this example i wanted (to test the basics) that if a item touches the drop item (in this case a element of a different project of me), it should change its graphic to a specified graphic.

as it turned out does this work pretty well, in the future i want to make it as well so, that the drop element know all the objects inside it and can if wanted give them back.

i hope you like this short little improvement.

sadly my friend (the designer) dosnt have anytime why ever, so we arent improving in visuals, which is harder for me as i am progamming orientatet to pre existing graphics. hope you understand what i mean.

but it just can get better :)

For this devlog, we finally created our README.md file, where we included all the basic and additional information about us and the project. If you’re curious about what the game will contain, feel free to check it out and read what we’ve written there :)

Hello, sadly yesterday we werent able to add anything because of christmas. but today i changed everything to .net 10 (with a lot of trouble on the way) and after it finally worked, i finished the model for dragable items, by using a AbsoluteLayout as container (instead of an canvas) and the DragGestureRecognizer for the movement of the element inside the AbsoluteLayout.

Hope you like it :)

I added the basic structure of the level overview, in which we wanted to have a level or better said “day” for each day before Christmas, with increasing dificulty and challanges coming with them

Hello there, and welcome to the first devlog of this project!
To build a solid foundation and give my friend — who is working with me as the designer — something to work with, I started by creating the entire base structure for the main menu and all the sub‑menus you can access from it.

I also made sure that everything can be freely resized without the buttons shifting into the wrong positions once the background image is added later on. To achieve this, I set up the buttons so their width automatically scales up or down depending on the current window size of the application.
