Thing of the day: Gira Gira, specifically this french cover because I love it very much ❤️
So: I've been stuck working on the UI for a bit because I've been wanting to make it truly be something I'd enjoy fiddling around, y'know? I FINALLY managed to get something today, after finding some videos online that were just positive affirmations lol. They were like "You are not allowed to give up hope." and I was like "YOU'RE RIGHT ACTUALLY!!!!" but it was 2am so I had to just, keep that hype in me for the next day.
So I woke up and decided to just focus on that the entire day, still giving myself enough breaks and all. After finding something I enjoyed, I kinda thought about the previous design I made which I still very much liked, especially it's main feature... I thought "That UI feels like it suits *THAT* game much more." ...So I'm currently doing a remake of a game 11CG and I made for Nanoreno 2021, using custom code for everything, as a way to teach me how to do it right for this current project.
While I know I'd be able to make the Dating Sim, I also want to know for a fact I won't start making a massive mistake that could've been avoided had I made the mistake earlier in something that matters a bit less lol
(I'm not saying Unison 22 matters less, the scope of it is just far smaller compared to this!)
Conclusion being that the dating sim is officially PAUSED. ...Not for too long, I hope! I'm going on holidays but I know for a fact if I get the chance to do a bit more gamedev, I will. lol.....
Although, the main reason isn't really to give me more experience making a visual novel, because I already can do that and have done prototypes in the past; but instead making creating new stories easier by making a tool inside of Godot to edit/add stories in a far more human readable format. I also think it'd be a great tool to have later on for modding if needed🎵
Time to go to bed, can't wait for tomorrow!!
EDIT: Stayed up a bit too late to work on a script that creates diary entries for me lol. I'm essentially making a backend aren't I......
