Devlog 15 - Last log before ship + minor fixes/testing

Progress (last devlog)

TLDR: I removed the third person camera stuff, added a pretty ball trail, and text for the game start and serving indicators

• I did some further testing to make sure there were no bugs (which I don’t think there are anymore, I fixed a problem where the pause menu didn’t work on previous parts)
• I added a really nice blue ball trail which I think makes the game look wayyyy better
• I also added some nice little features like text that shows which team is serving and shows when the game starts

What next?

• Shipping time… I’ve genuinely enjoyed making my game on Stardance for the past few months, and it’s definitely something I hope comes again in some kind and hopefully I’ll have time to do a project for it too. I wouldn’t have worked on this game as much as I did if it wasn’t for Stardance, so I’m really grateful to any Stardance devs who might read this

Acknowledgements

• AI usage involved debugging, with I think ~0-1% of my code AI written. I used AI when I couldn’t figure out why there might be an issue in my code, as often it’s good at picking the needle bug out of the haystack (good analogy??)
• Thanks to my friend A_Hostage (from slack and irl) who is the worst player the game has ever seen... 🤦 (he did give me good advice on the gameplay and style tho)
