A bit of progress on the island.

I'm focusing on making a playable alpha version this month: usability, balance, polish, a bit more content, stuff like that. I usually hate blogposts that are just a list but here you go.

Completed this week:

• start screen
• help screen
• r.i.p screen
• worldgen screen
• death from too little food
• death from too much food
• death from too little water
• death from too much water
• death from too little stamina
• death from too much stamina

Remaining to do items:

• death from being too cold for too long
• death from being too hot for too long
• save
• load
• day/night transitions
• map screen only shows what you have explored
• show vague data instead of exact on play screen (morning instead of 6:42, hot instead of 98 deg, thirsty instead of 100/1000 etc.)
• message log
• instead of consuming the entire plant, place it - or parts of it - in inventory
• eat parts of plants in inventory
• replant plants from inventory
• inland lakes and ponds
• saltwater/freshwater
• drinking freshwater is good, drinking saltwater is bad
• rework and balance weather
• rework and balance hunger, thirst, and exhaustion
• make some plants grow next to same kind
• add plant types and stats
• status effects form stats being too low or too high for too long
• status effects from eating certain plants
• remove many hard-coded worldgen parameters
• worldgen options
• add caves
• add ruins
