Game Off 2021 - Day 25

November 26, 2021

Finished options, with a few lingering bugs
- Sound volume configuration options
- Resolution configuration
- Menu sliders/dropdowns
- Saving of the config json via a hack of the main menu being enabled

This is not finished system components because I’m feeling sick. Excellent timing.

Options menu bugs
- Fix ui elements relative positions for screen resolution changes
- Resolution can’t switch to non-16:9
- WindowMode doesn’t update immediately
Battle
- Other “bug” effects. Let’s go simpler
  - Attack the turn order (prevents OHKO)
  - Some on-the-nose abilities if this isn’t enough
Assets
- Songs
  - Fade music on switch (just use fade animation?)
  - Properly choose track when necessary
- Visual effects
  - On-hit
- “Buggy” effects on all graphics/sound
  - Frame of disjointed squares
  - Sudden pitch/volume changes/play backwards
  - Background disappearing/losing color
    - Trees/sky/whatever becomes pink/invisible
  - Static noise/visuals on hit
  - Things get darker (lighting, music)
Finishing touches
- More battles + actors
- Main character asset (thinking a bug blob)
  - ~3f rolling movement
  - some jump-as-attack animation (12f necessary?)
  - 4f hurt anim, blob deform
- Outro video
  - Worst case it’s a blue screen -> fade to black
  - Best case it’s the video of blob + blue screen
- Cover art
Determine system requirements
- Whatever unity build allows
- “Mouse required” message
