How are your games coming along?   What are some of the small things that you'll be doing to make your unique? What pitfalls are you running into?

Hi! Here is a very early build - mostly I just wanted to get a character controller and the ground environment figured out: https://levelpixellevel.itch.io/the-lost-ship

Next up I want to make a quick dialogue system that will be the foundation of how the story is told (mostly a conversation with this astronaut and an AI)

If I have time I want to come back to this character, and refine the design and the animation (if I have time haha)

I like the art style.  The only tid-bit of advice/information I would offer is repeating the space background.  I have code somewhere that does that if you give me some time to find it.  It will help with the gray background that you see on both the left and right sides.

Thanks for the tip! I actually ended up adding a TextureRect, setting this to expand, and setting the stretch mode to tile, and pushing this across the screen. 

Here is the latest version: https://levelpixellevel.itch.io/the-lost-ship

I still have a lot to do, I might start limiting the scope for now. I have a dialogue system built, but I have not built any of the interactions into the game.

I love the galaxy background.  That said, the first door worked perfectly.  The middle one didn't open (seemed intentional based upon the current iteration), and the third doesn't move but allows me to go through.  I like the blue hue to the ship as well.  Very pretty.
