First update - Gallery, Start Menu, and more!
Hey guys and gals! This week was a very busy one for Catalyst under the hood.
- The gallery is complete!
- Sweeping changes were made to the structure of the script.
- An entire inventory system has been implemented! (Not visible in-game at this time. The finished Journal will display these items.)
- The main menu now hides the "Continue Your Journey" button when there is no save data present, and nicely rearranges the buttons to boot.
- The placeholder for the journal has been updated with tabs and the background image for each page, complete with a cute sound effect when you turn each page.
- Minor bug fix for gamepad users - now the correct number of menu options displays in-game and from the main menu.
The gallery is the real star of this update. As you progress through Catalyst: The Ruins, you will see BG images, sprites, and items. As each image is shown on screen, it will automatically unlock in the gallery! Since some images have multiple variants, unlocking all of them will then reveal the final page for that image. Clicking on sprites or items will show it at full-scale. Clicking on BG images will fill the whole page!
I'm going to be working hard to complete the Journal menu in the coming weeks. It is a VERY ambitious project for me, but I'm looking forward to the challenges it brings! Please let me know in the comments if you find anything out of place, or shoot me a line in our Discord if you have any suggestions. Many more updates are to come, so stay tuned!
