Hex Summons Dev Log

This is a comprehensive overview of the game "Hex Summons".

I will continue work on NPC overworld reaction logic as well as integrating rotating sprites into the overworld. Focus will also be given to better incorporating rotating sprites in the encounter.

This week progress will be sparse as I need to work extra hours. Will start work on system for NPC overworld reaction when able.

I was able to put together something that seems to work, but not completely. It gets points outside the defined area. For the time being I will be using the brute force method, as that does work.

I will work on a system that will define how overworld NPCs react to nearby characters, both player and NPC.

Will be out of town until June 29th, so no update until then. I will continue development of the encounter spawn system when able.

Began modifying the encounter spawn placement system to also allow for more complex behavior instead of just chasing the player.

This week, I will continue working on the encounter spawn placement system. I will also work on a system for directional sprites.

Will be out of town this week, so no updates until June 13. When I am able, I will start working on improvements to the random encounter spawn system.

Created some new character placeholder art. The current ones are only from a single perspective and I plan on having the sprites update to reflect the camera orientation.

This week, I will improve the system for spawning random encounters. The current system is able to place them outside of bounds.

This week, I will finish an initial version of the system that creates overworld characters that start random encounters.

Made loading screen system to handle switching between various parts of the game. Starting making overworld characters that will trigger random encounters when bumped into.
