The Numbers Game: The final leg

I'm not looking forward to this.
The final stage is set with only 4 days to go until launch, the question remains: Can I do it?

Long answer is, yes!
Basic maths to solve a simple equation
The basic algebra involved for solving the problem was actually annoying to implement. To start, two numbers are selected by the user then the user presses the button for the desired function to occur.
Three buttons are missing in this scene as they hold the "temporary values", being the currently used values and a "Temporary" value for storage (of course). This will allow the player to navigate their equation and build it out as they need to.
There is currently an issue with showing the worked equation for the player to see, so I don't know if it will make the final cut of the game. Only one way to find out on the 10th! I might have an idea for the next project, but it will be touching code that I'm quite intrigued by.

It's been a while...

It's been about a month or so since I've updated here. No, I'm not dead. Currently, I've been assigning my personal resources to build a new game, and thus have not been building any one month builds. Progress with this next project is coming along quite well... Minus some issues here and there. So let's talk about "Project Mech"shall we? Project Mech is an extension from a prior prototype that I've built which was designed around the hacking mini-game from Nier:Automata. Inside this game, you play in a mech shooting up aliens that are hell bent on destroying you. Yes, small story premise, but the story of this game is supposed to be simple and corny so I can experiment with game-play instead. Ideally, I'd like to experiment more with video game narrative, though that is a different long form project. This project will NOT support building a controller, though I'd like to implement that some other time. I'll add some screenshots later...

Puzzzling Motion - The next 1 month build intoduction

How do you design a puzzle game? What kind of puzzles do you put in a puzzle game? Is Physics involved? Complicated mathematics? or the ability to think outside the box in such a way that you are playing Antechamber? Or maybe you disguise your puzzles by utilising the world design like in Mirror's Edge and Portal games? hehe... Oh gods why (Antechamber) So where do you begin? I'm going to take this one month project to build a puzzle game based on motion. Let's start with everyone's favourite, baseline goals: Players must be able to move around to get to an objective The puzzles must be based on movement, pressing a button, flipping a switch, and then moving to the next puzzle  There must be materialistically, one level As always, we have our bonus round: up to 5 levels Parkour based movement An "open" area for testing out motions to better grasp motion mechanics. Now, where are where are we at the start? The first person characte...

Bits and glitches: Rooms, exploration and command

So this week, I've built some new rooms and added codes for going about exploration and combat. After a bit of tinkering, I've got it nailed down to key words for certain actions. Example: Go north to go north. Initially, it was flawed. I would look at the string as a whole, rather then looking for keywords It looked something list this: if stageAction == f"Go North" :         print( "do action" ) what it now looks like is something like this: if f"go" in stageAction or f"Go" in stageAction:        if "north in stageAction or f"North" in stageAction:                  print("do action") This allows me to make better actions for movement and combat. Combat is kind of in the game right now with an "Attack" action. Next week, more rooms and I'll show a snippet of the game as it runs.
