0.0.4 update! ft. the F1 key!

sorry i haven’t been working on it as much as i would have liked. i had to prepare myself for a test to hopefully finlally get a job in the coming months, and right after that i got some stupid rash to deal with. it sucks. i’m still healing, and i’m using the energy i have to finish what i had for this update despite one of my eyes still hurting.

anyway, the bad news first: i got little to no money and all that entails. unless someone calls me for a job for like next week or if i get commissioned, i’ll likely be on a hiatus for a bit.

good news though, i did finish an update! for this release:

• License notes!
  • i’m literally required to include those for some things i use, as this will be a commercial game in the future, so they are finally here! i did my best with the energy i had to write what i could. thank you IceFlower for the addon to manage licenses. it helped with templating the ItemTree.

• Visual icons for speed and altitude!
  • now with better chances that my game will become a just pick-up and play (citation needed)

• You can now review the manual with F1
  • or in the pause menu (both are literally the same!)
• You can look around now! Right Stick or IJKL to look!
  • (decent math not guaranteed)

planned for the following updates: either some flare and juice, or preparations for menus. i’ll try to make the movement more interesting with what i’ve learned from some friends :3 and i’ll also look to finally add some sounds and vfx. however, menus are good. a loading screen and a main menu to build upon will help me finally implement proper retries and resets.

btw, i can do drawing commissions at Ko-fi. if you’d like to give me money by any chance, then i might as well try by to draw something you can be happy with.

i guess that’s it for the time being. thank you for reading. - Wilker
