Hydration 2: Oasis

Haven't posted in ages because, well, most of the changes aren't visual enough to share and you probably don't want to hear me blather about the new warp system. Today, though, that changed.

Here's a picture of the new mini map system, so to speak.



It's not actually a total map- it just displays the 4 adjacent areas. The main purpose is that it lets the player know the difficulty of nearby areas (Green=easy, yellow=more difficult, etc) and tells them where ration/saving points are coming up (blue).

Latley the other big feature was revamping the new warp system to use ikaDB like it should have to begin with. Haven't really shown any of this before but I guess I'll share with you how it actually looks to edit the game most of the time.





I really don't think I'dve ever gotten this far making an RPG in ika without ikaDB, though I tend not to use it to its full extent on account of laziness. (ie, in that picture I have music as a string but it should really be another database object that's selected)

Next up? The save point system.
