Today I worked more on enemy logic (omg it’s always buggy so much math) and added a health bar
Hopefully I don’t find anymore enemy logic bugs haha.

• Made the enemy less insanely goated
• switched from hard coded values to more lerps T-T
• added cooldown timers for the attack, starting, and when it’s been too long in the attack state
• added health bar that scales based on damage done and displays as text

TO FIX:

• remove diagonal moving as much
• fix overlapping bodies
• add shark detection and npc detection sprite

Today I worked on the shark enemy movement attack one:
- Shark starts chasing in a hitbox of 950 px:
From 700+ distance the speed is at regular, 400+ and medium and 340+ at fast, if 290+ the it attacks by jolting at you using lerp and exp. Everything is eased in/out with lerp. I also made it so if they touch they will die and quit the game. In the future I will add a health bar though.

• The shark also flips and is delayed by 5.0 pxs from the player to look natural
• Connected the animations I made yesterday!

FISH:

• Added the boost button with a cooldown of 0.5 seconds nearly doubling speed (1.5 i think?)
• Also made it flip the entire node with all areas instead of just the image(like the shark :D)
  • Still have to ease the boost and add attacks
    so yeah today was a LOT of math . :,( also finally got rid of the black lines on my videos :D

Added another enemy animation for the shark idle/movement and attack :3

CODE PROGRESS:

• I debugged the map even though I though I had it perfect yesterday :,(
  • Smoother
  • Zoom works in ALL cases now
  • Switches between camera like it should and accounts for minimap size and positioning difference
    SPRITE PROGRESS:
  • FINALLY made the fish idle sprite, will work on the rest in the future

Today I worked on the dialog boxes and the mini map.
DIALOG:

• Create a template to be reused for every cut scene I wanted using arrays
  • easy to change text and npc name!
• Edited formatting and playback speeds
  -Created a system for 1 enter to skip and 2 to continue
  MAP:
  -Created the mini map in the corner
• Zooms in and out but is clipped to 0.1 minimum - 3.0 maximum
• Fixed the buggy camera bug
• Shows the player’s current position in the world
• Added right click to reset the zoom settings
• Fixed the bug where you could zoom outside of the mini map
  README:
• Edited the readme to match today’s progress

Still need to add the final sprites :D

:3 holy yap thanks for reading all that

I drew a few sprites for my game because any human art is better than ai art. I drew a fish, crab, and starfish and I will animate them soon!

Today I worked on getting the isometric tile maps to work. I also worked on basic movement and started the code for the NPCS. Currently I do need to redraw the sprites as well.
