Quick note!

My 2017 Holiday Card is live! This time around, it is a tower defense game titled General Princess. For full details, read the announcement post and/or the game’s own webpage.

I’m on itch.io now, too! Of course, this game can be downloaded there as well.

Currently trying to enable backgrounds to be “palettized” instead of just a solid color or black undiscovered background. 

I’m doing it in a way where, once it’s done, I should be able to apply it easily to all other room generation, but in this specific case I’m trying to create an outdoor effect containing a dirt area inside a heavy forest. 

I can polish it perfection later in development, but I am still improving it currently. Before I’m done with it today I want to:

- Quiet down the forest palette

- Apply a different but similar effect to the dirt area, so it is not a solid color

- Expand the dirt area a little in some way, to counter the negative space exposed by allowing forest tiles to not block sight (for outdoor effect)

- Add some objects to dirt area, particularly a path of some sort, and maybe more trees or more developed tree mechanics (currently you can chop trees  to turn them into raw wood, but they don’t grow back or anything)
