2.13.25

Didn’t post this before but this is the current state of the game now. We’ve got an official title and intro screen, a recipe book with a how-to-play guide, labels now appear under selected items, smoother animation w tweens, etc

Deciding if i’m gonna keep posting updates here, since Newgrounds has a news posts function that would make it easier to keep all my stuff in the same place…

2.6.25

Sorta getting the book to work - it's late so I'll leave it here for now. Don't even wanna think about what it'll take to get pictures to show up. Thinking about maybe adding UI to show the name of what item's being hovered over with the mouse?

2.4.25

Spent my whole morning before work just adding a .1 second delay to items being picked up. Had to rig a stupid timer system bc I couldn't figure out how to have it tell me WHICH animation was finishing when the animation finished signal is triggered. But here it is.

2.2.25 - We actually have a game now! A timer will now count down and reset when you make the drink, going faster each time.

Added a couple more drinks for some variety, so now there are a total of 6 to make.

Made some background music and put it on loop

1.30.24 - A lot has happened since last time! We have an actual background now! There's a customer who will order a random drink! Only drinks at the moment are the daiquiri and an old fashioned. In the video I made a Daiquiri. Sound effects are in the video for the first time, they've been in it since the beginning but I haven't been able to record them.

1.25.25 - BIG developments (screenshot instead of video bc who fuckin cares)

Originally I had bottles and glasses as two different things. Bottles would pour infinitely, contents defined by what the scene is named. Glasses would recieve contents from bottles, the only thing they could do themselves was dump contents out. BUT now all items function like glasses, and glasses can pour their contents into whatevers in the other hand. (or still dump out if nothing' else is held) Bottles are filled with contents at ready. This feels like the way it SHOULD work logically, however, this also means that you can pour contents into bottles even if it's not what they're labeled with. For example, you could now fill the lime juice bottle with whiskey if you wanted. When this turns into an actual game, that might get frustrating, but we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.

You can now swap between screens with the arrows! 4 screens at the moment, not that that matters because they're all the same. In the future, will make one w/ customers on it, one with tools, one with liquors and one with mixers. This caused a bit of trouble bc originally I had things held in hand being teleported to the hand's location once when they were grabbed, but when you change screens the hands would move and the held item left behind. So I had to fix it so the item is constantly checking if it is where the hand is.
