-make weapons more understandable
This week I put my prototype into a special game jam for indie games above is the summery of the feedback I received, I was really hoping I could get more done in time for the jam because its hard for others to give feedback when there's so little content and polish. But this was still very useful and should help me improve the demo moving forward. I spent most of my time this weak working on a rough implementation of the first three bosses they are all pretty simple one shoots, one chases you, and one spawns lots of little enemy's.
This week the plan is to work on the main menu I want to make it so the player has to select the hero making a little info pop up on the side and then hit play and get into the game, after that I would like to change the level generation a little so that there's at least some stuff to jump on.
I'm liking the direction of this project I feel like this will be my best game yet I just need to pull things together enough to get confirmation from people who are not crazy that it is fun and has potential. That is all for this week hopefully we all do better next week.
