Post Jam Update v1.1 - Polish and fixes!


This update fixes most of the errors that made the game hard to understand at launch. The webGL build has been made up to date and the original game jam submission is now available as the windows build titled "Original Game jam Submission". 

The only game design changes are:

  •  Resource plants can now only sustain their earth tile with up to two adjacent water tiles to encourage use of trees
  •  Map size slightly increased so  that the roots don't grow out of bounds

The fixes, polish and QoL upgrades include:

  • General background on the map edges to hide the skybox
  • removed unused water tool to avoid confusion
  • fixed flickering of plant sprites that are placed adjacent
  • player sprite no longer gets drawn on top of everything
  • fixed double button click sound
  • interaction text fixed to actually display information
  • added second line to interaction text for explanations
  • included the intended and already drawn art for one credit beaver
  • back to menu button from the pause menu to make the settings, controls and credits available after starting the game
  • swapped graphic for the lotus upgrade tool for the intended graphic
  • added text shadow for better readability and removed white backgrounds
  • adjusted some colours for more clear communication
  • pause button actually opens the pause menu
  • swapped a few default font texts to the pixel font
  • added version tag in the bottom right corner
  • fixed cloud scrolling in the main menu with unscaledDeltaTime
  • more minor adjustments
