As you can all see I have been busy at work. I know I haven't always been perfectly on time. My apologies for that.
So here's a little peek at what I've been up too:
I've added the random event art to the game as seen below (Ex:Mermaid/Treasure)
When the player is cruising around for gold the player might randomly find a Treasure with $10,000 or the player has a chance to get distracted for a couple of minutes by a Mermaid.
I also added the Player Base to the game as well. It will change views based on the players proximity.
While the player is in the area of the Player Base, the player will trigger the sluice button active, if the player has at least 3 PayDirt.
PayDirt will be displayed in this icon.
I also updated and removed the HUD I originally created altogether. I just felt it couldn't display all the information I needed it too. So I created individual Icon/Counters for each.
Fuel
Gold
Cash
Gold Scanner
Overall I really think this is better than the HUD I had before.
Here's a couple of screenshots of the game without the PopUp's blocking the screen.
So close, yet so far. I'm still pretty happy with the progress I've made in such little time.
Either way, I still have to enable buying of the Dredge Claims(Past the rock formation in pic above) and also add a High-Score Board.
I haven't done a whole lot with my animations yet though. I figured that would be the most time consuming, so it's a really good thing I got Sluicing taken care of today.
