[Development] 7/2/12 news - Crawle Game

You know what the best thing about being ill is? You're left home alone with your laptop, you're too lazy to go downstairs to switch the internet, so all you can do is program. And I have programmed today. A lot.

So here's a summary of what I've done today: diseases, world selection, world creation screens, a few changes to the GUI, a few changes to world generation.

Lets start with a changelog:

# GRAPHICAL CHANGES
    - Cleaned up the main game GUI.
    - Fixed POT issues and file size issues.
    - Added a hover image to textboxes.
    - World creation & selection screens.
    - When diseased the screen will tint green.
    - New energy bar.

    # CHANGES
    - Changed EXP bar to Sanity bar.
    - You can only sprint when you have energy now.
    - Worlds now have their own names.
    - Worlds now have their own properties.
    - Sanity and Energy no longer regen when diseased.
    - Separated flower seeds from tree seeds.
    - Upped the amount of flowers and details on the map.
    - Removed water edges (temporary).
    - Birch trees now only have a 1/4 chance of spawning.
   
    # FIXES

    # ADDITIONS

Here are a few screenshots of the new GUIs:

And a screenshot from ingame:

What you can see in here is:

c) More flowers.
d) A green tint to the screen (because of diseases).
e) A disease that effects my sanity AND thirst.
