Week 25 - Cat scratches
Added 2019-06-17 11:27:10 +0000 UTCThis week in RPG land, Lulu has learned to scratch the heck out of our bouncy slime foes.
Mreow!
The combat works very (very) similarly to the setup used for my Melee attacks video. With the same structure that allows for easily building in chain combos and different kinds of attacks with easy to manage "hitbox" sprites.
It was also my partner Emma's birthday last week and we took a couple of days out to spend together and lament still not having moved house yet. (Last week is when we had originally hoped to move, but sadly the purchase still has a long way to go. Buying a house is hard, yo.)
There's still (still) a ton of stuff left to build for this RPG and a pass needs doing to clean it all up. But I've found a topic I can cover quickly in the meanwhile, to try and stop the channel feeling too barren. You may or may not be aware (Most are not, who reads the patch notes anyway?) that GMS2 games now support recording GIFs internally using GML. I'm planning to put together a quick tutorial this week on demonstrating that new functionality and how to use it. It's pretty straightforward stuff.
The rest of my time will be on more Catventures. Livestream on Friday as per usual! I hope these updates remain useful, I'm saying a lot of the same stuff each week but I want to keep you up to date on where I'm at as it would have been very easy by now to assume I'd dropped off earth if you only watch my YouTube channel.
~Eternal thanks for your patience~
