Today I finally finished VOID//SIGNAL, which honestly feels pretty crazy considering how much the project grew from the original idea.I spent a lot of time polishing the game and tying the different systems together, including the crafting, weapons, salvage, enemy waves, puzzles, and exploration and a lot of the game’s mechanics are starting to come together.First, I separated the two crafting systems. The robot has its own crafting system for general resources and upgrades, while weapons have a dedicated system through the weapons table. This gives each system a clearer purpose and makes the weapons table feel like an actual part of the gameplay.From there, I worked on weapon crafting and the enemy wave system to make combat more engaging. This also ties into the salvage system, since collecting resources now has a more direct purpose beyond just picking things up.I also started improving how salvage looks in the game. Instead of having resources randomly sitting around, I want them to feel more like actual loot crates that you discover while exploring the ship.Of course, none of this came without a few C++ errors along the way (i hate my life). A decent part of the session was basically fixing one thing, testing it, accidentally breaking something else, and then fixing that too.Overall, VOID//SIGNAL is starting to feel much more like the game I originally imagined. There’s still plenty to build, but the systems are beginning to connect instead of feeling like separate features.
