See you soon ;3

DEVLOG #27:
New Features:

• new customer (normal),
• replaced old title scene background to new one,
  Notes:
  After around 40 hours of making my game, now I have no idea if I should add more content or ship it.
  I feel like everything that I was expected is done.
  Idk, maybe I will add some upgrades or something.
  See you soon ;3

DEVLOG #26:
New features:

• optimalized all the code,
  -exit doors SFX.

Notes:
I had changed code checking scripts from _process() to _input(), so now it should give some better performance, also now I preload all sprites, animations and sound effects.
See you soon ;3

Devlog #25:
New Features:

• added SFX when you interact with bushes,
• tried to add upgrades shop, but I feel like it isn’t what I want, so I deleted it.
  See you soon ;3

  Hi ^^

  See you soon ;3

• Ending (wip),
• keys for the exit doors,
• keys icon,
• fade transition,
• creator, table with laptop sprite (for ending),
• fixed bug with loading scenes,

  Notes:
  My reaction after 2 hours of blindly searching for bug that makes my game not load to only realize Engine.time_scale was set to 0 in tutorial:
  💀

DEVLOG #21:
New Features:

• resized kitchen entrance,
• started working on the ending 🤫.
  Notes:
  After having too many ideas for the perfect ending, I finally found a way that should satisfy most players.
  See you soon ;3

DEVLOG #20:
New Features:

• added music and sfx volumes to autosave,
• added another keybind to interact (now for interaction you can use ‘E’ or ‘Z’),
• milk now cost less, but I changed speed boost from 150 to 110 (default speed is 75).

Notes:
Today’s devlog is short because school takes most of my time, but overall I feel satisfied with the results ^^

DEVLOG #19:
New Features:

• settings in pause menu,
• restart button (with script to overwrite save to default data),
• music and sfx volume sliders,
• fixed monologue after restart.

Notes:
Hi everyone! ^^
I am after making my game for whole 25 hours!
Tomorrow I will make more content to my game, maybe some new customers, or something. But I feel proud of my game and progress that I made in that time.
See you soon ;3

DEVLOG #18:
New Features:

• buying tables to unlock more space for the customers,
• fullscreen option,
• background music (plays in main menu and game scene),
• sound effects,
• larger money label background,
• autosaves for tables,
• some signals to refresh data after loading data from save.

Notes:
Maybe it does not look, but I feel like this devlog makes an extremely big change to my game. I locked most of the tables near kitchen to make my game more difficult and make the player want
to buy tables that are nearer the kitchen counters. Now the player needs to pay to get tables, and the closer they are to the kitchen, the higher the price.
I learned how signals works ^^
Aaaaaaaaaand if someone follow my devlogs long enough they could remember that I was learning how to make music, but unfortunately I decided to use someone’s no-copyright premade music for my game.
See you soon ;3

DEVLOG #17:
New Features:

• client animations + one new special customer ^^,
• added shadows to counters for depth,
• added global node to play sound effects with coded function,
• implemented all sound effects that I had,
• fixed autosave,
• after seeing the tutorial for the first time in a save, it will not appear anymore.
  Notes:
  I really like how my customers look now, maybe I will add some delay between blinking animations for one type of customer.
  I feel like to finish my game I need like 10-20 hours more of creating, but I am so excited!!! ^^
  School takes most of my time, but I am optimistic about the future of my game.
  I think I will start searching for no copyright music for my game instead of creating my own. Still feel like music is too difficult for me.

DEVLOG #16:
New Features:

• autosave! (works on my computer),
• some sfx (might change them later)
  Notes:
  Autosave was a nightmare for me TwT. I had issues with saving files, and at first, I didn’t understand why autosave worked for the player’s position but not for money. After searching for the bug, I realized I had simply forgotten to refresh the money label after loaded data.
  See you soon ;3

DEVLOG #15:
New Features:

• function for character monologues,
• tutorial monologue by Mr. Cat :3.
  Notes:
  I still find making music for my game too difficult, so for now I’ll focus on polishing the game.

DEVLOG #14:
New Features:

• improved light system,
• buttons sprites,
• new ui (money display and speed-boost icon),
• updated tilemap (new rug texture and new plant),
• adjusted order prices to improve the game economy.
  Notes:
  After spending way too much time wondering why my rug still looked ugly, I finally feel like the visuals looks really well. I also tried makeing my own music for the game, but it’s still too difficult TwT

DEVLOG #13:
New Features:

• light system,
• particles for speed boost and customers,
• particle sprites.
  Notes:
  For now, I need to focus on the visual side of my game.
  I am still figuring out how to create music for it.
  See you soon ;3

DEVLOG #12:
New Features:

• updated all sprites and changed collor palette to aap-64

DEVLOG #11:
New Features:

• milk (speed boost),
• new functions that make my work on code much easier, like auto update label for displaying money amount, also new functions for alerts,
• shop, with cat paw animation,
• shop sprite.
  Notes:
  I downloaded lmms to make some music for this project, but if I need to be honest, I don’t know if I am able to do that, I think it’s too difficult TwT

DEVLOG #10:
New Features:

• player animations (walk in all directions and idle animation),
• carpet for the tileset,
• alert function (for exit doors),
• got rid of godot warnings,
• special customer pays more than regular, also regular customers pays based on how much money you have + random amount from 10 to 20.
  Notes:
  I want make music for my game (maybe some 8-bit type music), can anyone give me some tips, what free program use, or how to start?
  See you soon ;3

DEVLOG #9:
New Features:

• random customer sizes,
• new secret customer (1/30 chance to appear[in the future he pays more for food{but first I need to improve the customer script}]),
• improved item system,
• added red arrow on current client order.
  Notes:
  While I was testing the game, I noticed that after some time I only serve to the new customer, where customers before him are waiting for their food. It turned out to be an food spawning issue. I have added a function that automatically rearranges products position when food is taken, and every new customer order ALWAYS goes to the last slot.
  See you soon ;3

Devlog #8
New Fatures:

• main menu with spinning animation,
• pause menu,
• new sprites for the customers.
  Notes:
  After like 30 minutes of just staring at my code and thinking “why it is not working TwT” finally I can say I done most of annoying part of the game.
  There are 4 customers now, two with two color variants.
  See you soon ;3

Devlog #7
New features:

• customers order system finally fully works!
• player can give them food (only what they wanted) and get paid (10-13$)
• ui (just for test, I will make it pretier later.
  Notes:
  To be honest, that was the most difficult part of this game for now.
  Still I don’t know when I want to ship my project.
  See you soon ;3

Devlog #6:
New features:

• now player has sprites for all directions,
• ordering system is really close to be finished, now customers makes orders and food is spawned on countertop. Also every item is connected to table, so player can’t give deliver order to other clients and spawning script have pre-made places to spawn items.
  Notes:
  Maybe I forgot about somehting else to mention in this devlog, but I am really happy to see that my ordering system goes well.
  See you soon ;3

Devlog #5:
New features:

• functions for checking free and taken tables,
• new sprites for food,
• script for spawning one customer with random order only to free table.
  Notes:
  I am so excited! I really like how project goes and I still have so many ideas!
  See you soon ;3

Devlog #4:
New things:

• beta order system for customers and make them random,
• script to show (new random customer with random order) and hide customers,
• sprites for food and order.
  Notes:
  It was really funny to experiment with making customers and beta order system. They look so cuteeee ^^
  Order system for now is only displaying ordered food (in the future I going to add more sprites) by customers (also in the future I want add more unique customers.
  See you soon ;3

Devlog #3:
New things:

• new texutres (work area),
• tables (object with sprite and colisions),
• area on the doors for future gameplay mechanic/easter egg.
  Notes:
  I now know where I want this project to go, in next updates I will think about adding customers ^^
  See you soon ;3

Devlog #2
Hi ^^
I made a few new thing to my project. I changed movement script for player to move more smoothly
(ease in out), also I made new sprites for tailmap with colision, so player won’t go out from camera. For now I have player sprite when he goes down and up with script to handle this.
See you soon! :3
(Why I can’t upload videos? TwT)

Devlog #1
This is my first devlog of my godot game ^^
I added player with movement script and tailmap (just simple background for now).
I think my project will be about a restaurant.
See you soon ;3
