Zurvive v0.0.4 - Inventory

Zurvive
A downloadable game for Windows

After what I consider to be a bit too long, I finished the inventory.

It's been a rough month, with less dev time and the death of a little friend. It made my coding go slower, my interest not being there all the time and in grief and tiredness make mistakes that took a lot longer to fix than it should ("Hey dev, you're using source control... Just roll back!!" - ²Nah, I'mma fix it!²).

I'm still planning on writing a blogpost about the inventory system and my reasoning behind it. But that'll have to wait a few more days. But this part is finished now and I can start working on putting everything together.

Current systems in place:

  • Guns
  • FPS movement
  • Enemy & pathfinding/"ai"
  • Inventory system
  • Level selection and loading
  • Health & Survival

It's all basic, making them a decent game loop and tweaking everything is now on my plate, but I have a decent direction I want to go with the project.
