Aurora's Fog - Improved UI, Dialogue and Sleep Systems

Aurora's Fog (old)
A downloadable game for Windows

Hi! I've had a lot of work with the code this month, namely: rebalance of stats, improved sleep system and dialogues. I'm also slowly starting to introduce a modified AI that already has attributes, stats, and skills. By the way, the plans for this case are to make a race system that will add unique properties to each NPC, depending on the race, namely: the volume of steps, perception in the dark, health and its regeneration, and so on...

  • [Interface] Perk tree has been improved. Added display of the requirement for the perk;
  • [Balance] Rebalanced: Regeneration of Health, Stamina and Degradation of Stamina. Stamina regeneration is now 1.5 times slower when walking. It is best to stand still for maximum efficiency;
  • [Balance] The rate of reduction of hunger and thirst changes depending on the player's activity: while sleeping, the character spends 2 times less calories, while running - 20% more, also if the character is injured (health < max.), Then the consumption increases by another 30%;
  • [Sleep] Improved bed and sleep system: Updated Interface, new animations. Waiting or Sleeping in the amount of at least 1 hour restores the entire Stamina;
  • [Sleep] Added and adjusted rest multiplier for beds;
  • [Character Controller] Optimized the code, implemented a gradual increase in the speed of the character and smoother animation transitions;
  • [Dialogues] Redesigned visual of dialogs: answer buttons are now executed as text without a background image. Also, the response window has a dynamic size, which depends on the volume of the response text;
  • [Dialogues] Added sound when hovering and clicking on an answer. Implemented color highlighting of Attribute/Skill in the response text;
  • [Dialogues] Added the ability to pause dialogue;
  • [Interface] The code of the interaction interface has been optimized. Also, the interaction icon and the name of the item are now displayed when you hover over it;
