GUI changes (Patreon)
Content
Time to share some progress of what I'm doing in the January.
Like I mentioned in the previous post my main focus this month would be the visual aspect of the project. I wasn't paying enough attention to it, but I really wanted to make the whole game look slightly better. It's not that exciting as new pictures of enemies or npc, but it's still a crucial part in my opinion.
The most important thing is that the game resolution will change. Now it's going to be 1920x1080. I wasn't sure how much time it will take to resize all the backgrounds/art/screens, but it went smoothly and I almost finished everything. There are still some issues with saves, but I'm working on it.
About other changes:
First of all new GUI. There's a big difference outside of the battle, as there is much information that wasn't really needed. The battle screen itself didn't change that much. The same goes to conversation frame - both of them were polished so they have a nicer look.
Some of the screens were not only adjusted in size, they also look a little bit different. Here you have two examples (Equip screen now also have buttons to show only specific kind of gear, so you don't have to look through everything at once).
The map has also changed. This is something I wanted to do for a long time, but I wasn't sure how to handle it... now it actually work as it should from the start. There is a marker that shows the player's current location, there are also routes between the location that make it more clear.
There is also one more thing I wanted to announce. I will add the gallery for the Journeyman tier. It's not working completely just yet, but I should be able to finish it for this month update.
That's the end of the report! Expect version 0.16 close to the end of the month!
(Just have in mind that I'm not sure how much actual content there will be, as most of my time and effort went towards doing all those changes above. I know I already mentioned that, but better safe than sorry!)
Take care! And be naughty! >:3
