Greys Anatomy Game

The time has finally arrived- my game has background music! I finally gave in an watched a tutorial video which helped a lot. Adding music was part of developing the settings menu, which is complete until I think of more cool things to add. You can turn the music on and off, change the volume, and pick what song is playing. If anyone knows the deal with licensing and copyright I’d love to know, I picked real songs they play in the show but maybe that’s illegal?? I also added an animation to the hearts, it looks kind of bad but in a fun way I think. Next steps are debugging the pause menu, and fixing the win/lose screens.

I have finished setting up my third (and probably final) minigame. This one was a trivia game, I debated having the user press a key to answer but thought it best to just go with buttons. This might mean its too similar to my second minigame, but I’ll see if it grows on me. I think next I’ll work on the win and lose screens, then it will finally be time for me to attempt music! If I have enough time, I also am thinking about adding some animation, and looking for a custom font for better aesthetics.

I have now added a pause menu! This took a lot of debugging, but I think I’m learning a lot about Godot as I go. I also consolidated the code for all the minigame 1 levels into one, hopefully this makes it easier to edit. Plans now include working on minigame 2 as a bit of a mental break, and then trying to add the background music (I’m also considering adding a timer that runs throughout all the levels for a total time, might be too hard?).

I have been working on my existing minigames, and changing some styling. I added sublevels to the first minigame, proper level design still to come (they are too easy currently). I hope to add changeable background music, a pause game feature, and a third trivia minigame (I have given up on my dreams of doing pixel art, stock images will have to do).

I have been following the WarioWare mission, and so far I have the title screen, timer screen and first minigame all set up. It has been challenging working with a new program, this means I still have a lot of bugs to fix (you don’t progress in the game properly). The theme is Greys Anatomy (the best TV show ever made) only as a placeholder, I am planning on doing some art for it later.
