Progress Update
Posted: Sat Sep 04, 2021 7:48 pm
To begin with, after much debate and countless game developers relentlessly asking twitch, let us enjoy this small victory of having a Software and Game Development category.
As development continues with the focus on the Player Pet Information Panels, some interface layout elements had to be reconsidered. The goal is to achieve a UI that supports various input types ( Keyboard/Mouse, Touchscreen, Gamepad ) and works well on mobile devices with small screens.
Continuing from the previous dev journal with the Information Panels. The Battle Stats show the Pet versus Pet and Guild versus Guild. These statistics will be of more value farther down the development roadmap.
The Pet Growth is similar to before showing the strengths and weaknesses of the pet, with the purpose of guiding the Player in making decisions on how to build their pet.
Of course, we can not forget about the Pet Abilities( Basic/Core, Spells, Skills ). There are three abilities Panels with each their respective category of abilities that are displayed.
Lastly, the Pet Equipment panel shows the currently-equipped items onto the pet.
All of these panels will go through various revisions before they are finalized. The current goal is to get the information displayed in an acceptable state and then revisit the Panels later for modifications and finishing polish.
With the Pet Information Panels at an acceptable level of implementation ( not completed ), the following core game system development around the corner will be the Pet Combat System.

Have a great weekend :)
