Alright, I'm not sure where to start, I guess I'll just start with where I'm at and then where I want to go with the game.

Currently, I have a Main Menu:

A Options Menu with 3 tabs, (I'll add graphics soon.):

And I have a save system:

I Also Have A Pause Menu:

I have a rather basic 2D Player Controller, Walk, Jump, And Crouch, I also have abilities, Double Jump, And Dash, More Will Be Added At Some Point.
(Probably after the Demo is Released, not sure tho)

I probably should of talked about the Premise first, Oh well.
I can't talk about it much due to wanting the Lore to be: Somewhat Community Driven / Revealed in the Game, (And in other places.)

Anyway in LOTSM - Revolving Memories: You play as Nicholas a Spirit Fox That lost His Memory, He only Remembers a few Names: Nicholas, Fia, Stella, And Luna (Equivalent to, in order: Spirit Fox, Snow Wolf, Stellar Fairy, Soul Mage).

You can swap between Ability sets, (Being Nicholas's Friends Abilitys) The first Friend you find is Fia who has the Abilities of: Double Jump And Dash.


Now, Where I want to go with the Game:

It's quite odd for a first Game, But I'm planning on working on this throughout My Life, You know, With all the Regaining Memories stuff, And like, the Name of the Game.

Anyway, I'd like to have Revolving Memories be a very Storydriven Patformer Game, The idea will probably change over Time, And dont worry the current Art is very much Temporary, And if Your curious the Game World is called Alansania, And I have a private Wiki for all the LOTSM Lore.

Anyway Thats About It For Now, I'll Probably Add More Posts Here Every Once And A While, Bye For Now :D o/

I Added The Power Swap Menu Finally.

I Also Added Slide And Wall Jump.

Slide And Wall Jump Are For Power Set 1 ( Nicholas ), Dash And Double Jump Are For Power Set 2 ( Fia ).

Hello, This Is A Pretty Small Update But I Just Wanted To Let You All Know What I'm Planning A Of Now.

I'm Not Going To Be Using The Dialog System I Was Working On, I'm Probably Going To Be Useing Dialogic Infact I Was Planning To Originaly, But I Wanted Text Bubbles And I Forgot Styles Existed :/
I Havent Really Tried Useing Dialogic Yet So I Might Not Use It. Anyway Enough About Dialogic.

I Will Be Updating To Godot 4.4. Why Mention This? I Will Most Likely Have To Recode Everything But The Player Controller, I've Tried To Update To 4.4 many Times But I Have To Remove Like 70% Of Things In The Project, And I Kinda Need To Recode Most Things Anyway, Especially The Settings Menu It Is SO Badly Coded, Lmao
I Also Probably Wont Be Using phantom Camera Anymore Cause When I Update To 4.4 It Just Stun Locks Godot.
The Changes That I Need To Do Will Probably Take A While, Maybe A Week If I'm Not Lazy.

Anyway Thats All, Sorry For The Wall Of Text :P
