Hey everyone!

Blah late again! This time it was because I wanted something finished before I posted about it.
So while I didn't get as much as I wanted done, I did get some cool things constructed. Firstly, I re-wrote the animation functions! Why? So now I can have massively complicated animation stacks for any number of actors! But why would I want to have multiple actors being animated? Why so I can have different characters all doing different things! But wouldn't that require some sort of NPC programming? Why yes it would mysterious reader! That is why I did exactly that! It definitely needs work, but I've got the structure for NPC programs all coded into my little game. So right now it's just a guy standing and randomly jumping whenever they see fit, but it's the beginning of great possibilities! With a few simple lines of code I could make a character run. I could make them randomly wait around, chase the player, wander aimlessly and possibly question their very existence! The point is though that, even though work and my personal life like to get in the way and delay me horribly, I still have time to occasionally conjure up something like this. I'd like to think that I'll be able to get this done sometime soon, and then be able to re-use the engine to make more games~! Oh also I've been back-and-forth-ing with a musician for the music! It's exciting to be listening to their work, it helps my mind drift off into my project's world.

I did promise you something visual so here it is! My current sketch of the protagonist. The proportions are a little off and it needs a bit more fleshing out (it's a sketch after all), but it helps me visualise the world more when I have his image in my mind running around. [Link!]

Be happy~!
