V 0.21

So this is a huge update! I've added a lot of new stuff, and there is progression in terms of unlocking new things! These notes includes V0.18, V0.19 and V0.20 as I was playtesting and bug fixing throughout, and some versions had game-breaking bugs and were not uploaded to Itch.io.

I hope these features make the game more interesting for you! And if you have any thoughts, suggestions or bugs feel free to comment those things. I'm currently setting up playtesting properly through a discord server that I'll be linking to this page soon, and may even set up forum stuffs, so if you're interested in following the development of this game closely, look out for that! :D Thanks.

New Features of V0.21:

• Windows for light. (V0.18)

There's now environmental light that makes sense!

• Potions have particle effects and new designs. (0.18)
  

Potions are now, in fact, sparkly, and look a bit different too.

• New Potions! (V0.19)

18 new potions, categorized as different variations of the original 9.

• New Ingredients, Flowers and Petals. (V0.19)

The original 9 potions have their own ingredients, flowers and petals. Their recipes have changed along with this, and the new potions use these items.

• Reset rotation of held item. (V0.19)

As a perfectionist I thought this feature was good. Pressing "F" while holding and item resets it's rotation. 

• Close/Open shop toggle. (V0.19)
  

Can close and open shop, and it will send away the current customer and not spawn more until the shop is open again.

• Level Pop Up. (V0.19)
  

There's now a pop up for when you level up!

• Added momentum to objects. (V0.19)

Yes, you can now throw objects across the room.

• Unlocking System (V0.20)

New items/potions now unlock with level up, currently every level but this will be changed when I have planned out progression properly.

• Plots have timers. (V0.20)

Plots now display a timer for how long they have left to grow.

• Scythe tool upgrade changes. (V0.20)

Scythe tool now has a chance to give more petals on harvest. Scales with upgrades.

• Watering Can tool upgrade changes. (V0.20)

Watering Can now speeds up growth time of plots. Scales with upgrades.

Changes to Features of V0.21:

• UI window changes. (V0.18)

All UI windows look cleaner! I'm especially proud of the current shop. There's going to be characters in the loans and blacksmith window eventually though, so changes to the windows aren't fully complete.

• Loan system changed. (V0.18 - V0.20)

Loans are now maxed to 500, and create pop ups reminding you to pay back your loan. Scales with amount. These pop-ups should remove themselves if loan is paid.

Loans also now have text to display actions.

• Customers request different potions. (V0.19)

Customers now request different potions to their type (when potions are unlocked of course).

• Pixel-perfect colliders on flower objects (seeds petals, ingredients). (V0.19)

This is mostly for spacing, and it takes a while to do so I haven't done the potions yet.

• Each row of planters has its own spawn location. (V0.19)

On the cupboard next to them, they now spawn their contents on the same level.

• Cauldron tweaked to work with new potions and items. (V0.19 - V0.21)

Some code changes to how the cauldron takes in items. Boring stuff.

• Changes to growth time of plants. (V0.21)

With the timer changes, I've also scaled the growth time with new pricing and unlocks.

• Changes to prices of seeds. (V0.21)

Scales with unlocks.

• Changes to potion selling prices. (V0.21)

Scales with unlocks.

• Shop now sells liquid and solid components. (V0.20)

Due to some recipes requiring multiple of the same component, I thought having a shortcut (for coin) would be better than needing to create extra powders and mixtures.

Removed Features of V0.21:

• Petal Upgrades are no longer in the game.

This is due to scythes now basically having this feature.
