Development

The image was made last night when I was testing the changes made to the code discussed after the break.

The last couple days of development have consisted of cleaning up code and rewriting chunks of it that I felt were messy as I went through each file.

After finishing up on the water and swimming I felt that the project was starting to get very big with alot of classes all with hundreds of lines of code. Instead of moving onto a new feature like I wanted I decided to put this whole week to cleaning up and optimizing the code where I could before it got even bigger.

As of now all but two classes have been cleaned up and certain areas of the classes rewrote. Doing this has also fixed some bugs which I had no idea what the cause was, so its helped in more ways then one to do this cleaning session. The second last file is being worked on as I write this post and it and the last file should hopefully be cleaned by tonight.

Also this week after getting some advice from my artistic friend on changing the look of the "Liquid" blocks (Mana,Health etc.), I went and redid those blocks using the advice he gave to me. I'd like to point out here I have no experience with pixel art or art in general for the most part and started to learn pixel art at the start of this project.

Here are the 4 new versions and the old ones so you can see the slight changes for comparison.

To end this post i'm going to say that lava is 80% the next feature that will be implemented.
