Getting them scenes done - Week #16

July 24-30, 2022

First thing first, I got a new title for the game, I still consider it a working title though, we'll see.
The title is now: Mikey and Grover's Unexpected Adventures

8 out of 9 scenes are now finalized for the beta! (the promenade scene is still in the works)
I fixed everything I wanted to fix and added everything I wanted to add.
But I'll probably revisit some of them later on when I gain more skills, learn new pixel art tricks, or if I get new ideas.
And I still plan on doing a green day. No, not the band, just making a bunch of different trees and bushes designs, to plant around the scenes.

Here are some of things I did this week:

• The updated bedroom scene design was added to the game.
• A dude walking a dog added to the park scene background.
• Surf shack scene: added garbage cans, added chalkboard, added showers in the background + kid taking a shower (does not appear always).
• House exterior scene: added some extra texturing, a little garbage, updated garbage can shading, removed some outlines.
• Street scene: added extra texturing, some garbage, lamp post, removed outlines.
• Burger bar scene: floor tiles and textures, added hotspots, updated bar sign, kitchen parallax background + chef.

Other than that I added mild dust particles to all the scenes, I fixed some reported bugs and you can now call Grover on the walkie talkie whenever you want, though at the moment there's just one dialogue repeating.

The plan was and still is to release the demo beta on the 4th month mark, that's the 9th of August. So far I'm on track and making good progress!
