12/16/11 - HUD, Mothwood Swamp

screenshot695.png

As you can see in the screenshot, I've been working on a new area called Mothwood Swamp. Mossy/hanging vine trees, lilypads, and cat tails are the main plants found in the swamp, but some areas will have mushrooms, flowers, and other plants as well.

I also added shadows to the rocks and mushrooms, for better perspective. On top of that, I made the vines/moss on the swamp trees a bit darker so it's easier to tell them apart from the grass (It was nearly the same exact color/shade before).

Also, I've finished the HUD, as you can see. The buttons on the bottom left are for the Inventory, Stats/Info, and Options, in that order. The bottom-middle text is the area you're currently in, and the other text fields are self explanatory.

The game, by default, will go by your computer's clock, however, there'll be an option to play with a faster time, for those who don't want real time.

I like the overall display of the game, but may I add some advice?
Use more anti-aliasing to decrease the edge sharpening on some of the graphics.
 
The game looked so good and pretty... Then you added the character in and now its like that creepy sprite has infected the rest :I

    truth be told, i agree with psi, i dislike both candidates, but i'd probably vote trump simply because the economy was better during his presidency
  • AngryCinnabon @ AngryCinnabon:
    Just be careful, if trump ends up winning and using project 2025 America might really change...for the worse.
