This is my first project, my first devlog.
TL;DR: I created a main menu action system, where players can create their characters or load them, characters can have their own classes, and each class has their stats, character stats are stored in a JSON file.
lil bit of backstory: I’m learning basic python in school, and for a while I’ve always asked myself “What’s stopping me from being better than everyone else here?”, So after I spent countless hours with that short fuelled motivation in tutorial hell, where i relentlessly watched videos on “how to start my dev journey” etc., while not actually implementing anything, and as a result I didn’t really retain knowledge. So with Stardance, I plan actually doing something productive this time
For the past 2 -3 days I’ve been trying to get my head around game loops and file handling and code structure. Honestly, this has probably been the hardest part so far (even though I didnt get far), because I’m starting to realise there’s a big difference between knowing programming concepts than actually putting them into a project 😭😭😭😭😭😭
I had to search a lot of things up, and figure out how to move forward, and for a while, I’ve had this bug where the main action menu would keep looping and after realising it was all because a couple of logic errors.
This is only the beginning of Ashfall, Expect a lot better from me soon
