Day 6 - Where grown men break...

We're running to the finish line here, and there's still so much to do...
I've managed to put together a version for anyone generous enough to give it a spin!
Game Demo

Known issues:
- Always run a 16x9 resolution for this build.
- Do NOT used the escape cheat. It worked for everything up until I implemented the end of game (the game will still work properly, but killing the boss won't lead to the victory if used...)
- Some of the instructions in the tutorial may appear misleading currently.
- The Torch feature ("3") is not present.
- Monsters color swaps had an issue and all show up as their own color...

Progress Report

- Victory and Defeat screens or dialogue -- I have a Victory screen! (however bland...)

[color=rgb(40,40,40)][font=arial]

[font=arial]

- Ball of light for the intro -- Yeah.. eh... it ain't gonna happen at this point.

[/font][/font][/color]
[color=rgb(40,40,40)][font=arial]

[font=arial]

- SHADES (enemy type) -- All taken care of (finally).

- Light/Torch mechanic -- Mechanic is in place for GPIs, but not for the character. I think I could do without if needed, but it might give some issues to people when faced with certain waves...

[/font][/font][/color][color=rgb(40,40,40)][font=arial]

- Additional Ruin stages -- Arted AND functional. Finally... Been tweaking the stats to make them work, but time is lacking, so I'll have to let it slide...

- FX (particle effects) -- Still missing something for the evolution and devolution steps. I like the visual that lead me there, but I'm just missing that 'omph'.

[/font][/font][/color]
[color=rgb(40,40,40)][font=arial]

[font=arial]

- Gamepad support -- Doubt I'll have much time for this...

[/font][/font][/color]
[color=rgb(40,40,40)][font=arial]

+ whatever I may not have in mind right now...
[font=arial]

- Spawner now works properly, with placeholder waves at that and one that leads to the victory screen. Still need some level design work, but it's not going to happen overnight.

[/font][/font][/color][color=rgb(40,40,40)][font=arial]

[font=arial]

- Block player from exiting level! - Fixed. Could be a problem in some resolutions though...

Things I'd like to get done before final delivery:

[/font][/font][/color][color=rgb(40,40,40)][font=arial]

- Fix levels

[/font][/color][color=rgb(40,40,40)][font=arial]

[font=arial]

- Torch feature ("3")

[/font][/font][/color][color=rgb(40,40,40)][font=arial]

[font=arial]

- Simplify tutorial (too much text) and quicken the pace

[/font][/font][/color][color=rgb(40,40,40)][font=arial]

[font=arial]

- Streamline explanation for the 3 types of ruins (Ruins, Temple Ruins and Idol) in such a way that people understand why each is important.

[/font][/font][/color][color=rgb(40,40,40)][font=arial]

[font=arial]

- Fix the cheat (I intended on having this cheat be usable for retries)

[/font][/font][/color][color=rgb(40,40,40)][font=arial]

[font=arial]

- Remove the 'worker' component from Idol. It leads to some abuse in the intro

[/font][/font][/color][color=rgb(40,40,40)][font=arial]

[font=arial]

- Fix Monster color swaps

[/font][/font][/color][color=rgb(40,40,40)][font=arial]

[font=arial]

- Determine whether the Idol should be move-able or not (possibly revise where it spawns too)

[/font][/font][/color][color=rgb(40,40,40)][font=arial]

[font=arial]

- Modify the Ranged attacker's AI

[/font][/font][/color][color=rgb(40,40,40)][font=arial]

[font=arial]

- Add an Audio mute/unmute button

[/font][/font][/color][color=rgb(40,40,40)][font=arial]

- AddFX to evolution and devolution (particle effects)

[/font][/color][color=rgb(40,40,40)][font=arial]

- Actraiser ball? (one can always dream...)

[/font][/color][color=rgb(40,40,40)][font=arial]

- Joystick support (eh)

[/font][/color][color=rgb(40,40,40)][font=arial]

- Scoring?

[/font][/color][color=rgb(40,40,40)][font=arial]

- Fix an issue with homing balls that seek to shoot at Shades (and they simply can't)

[/font][/color][color=rgb(40,40,40)][font=arial]

- Fix enemy Swords and Bows collision boxes

[/font][/color][color=rgb(40,40,40)][font=arial]

- Add a GPI that can draw bonepiles and collect them in lieu of the player.

[/font][/color][color=rgb(40,40,40)][font=arial]

*Address any major feedback I might get from the build!

[/font][/color]
[color=rgb(40,40,40)][font=arial]

Obviously, little of that will get done by day 7's end if any!

Can't wait to catch back up on sleep!
