Today's Guernsey: Animation pass on the mourners. Simpler, 'cause they don't talk and are meant to be kinda background chorus, so not a lot of emotion or character -- and no faces! 😶‍🌫️ #gamedev #indieGameDev

Today's Guernsey: Quick animation pass on Naomi! Probably needs a bit more character, but... it is a funeral, after all. 🤷🏻‍♂️ #gamedev #indieGameDev

Today's Guernsey: Yeah, undid what I did yesterday -- and improved. Raised all of the walls, reset their impossible collision, but also added a few drop down shortcuts by breaking the walls.

That should hopefully suit!🍃🪦👻🪵🐦‍⬛🍂#gamedev #indieGameDev

Today's Guernsey: I tweaked the collision on a bunch of walls in this area to allow Guernsey to walk over them.

This is maybe bad -- most walls in the game don't allow this, they're impassable!

Maybe it stays? 🤷 Or maybe I hit ctrl+z a bunch. #gamedev #indieGameDev

Today's Guernsey: Another small one (sorry, folks, I feel like I say that too much but it is what it is)

I rearranged some graves so the bird grave had a better reveal/treat to it, and I did some research into audio plugins for Unity.

That's it! #gamedev #indieGameDev

Tonight's Guernsey: finished hooking up all Chapter 5 dialogue! Maybe a few more incidentals to write and add in, but that's the bulk of it!

Tomorrow I'll give it all a thorough test -- think some rewrites may be necessary. But for now: 🥳 #gamedev #indieGameDev

Today's Guernsey: Wasn't feeling writing today, so hooked up the optional Chapter 5 Gabby the Witch NPC.

The framing's a bit awkward but, well, she's set up at any rate! Easy to move and reconfigure now.
