Dev Journal #1
I'm going to talk briefly about a system I've recently added or modified in-game that I've been working on
Originally, the far left of the status window showed a receipt for the furniture you bought at the recycling center, but now that receipt only appears at the beginning of the day, after that, you see a calendar.
There are 30 days in the calendar, and each day's ledger is recorded for that day.
Click on a day in the calendar to see your household ledger for that day. Since income only happens in very limited instances, most of it is expenses. Think about the fixed expenses that go out every day, look at your bankbook, and be intentional about spending them! Because if your funds go to zero, it's game over.
A healthy fish tank
Not-so-healthy fish tank
The fish tank was originally a decorative piece of furniture with no function, but with the addition of a new system, it has been transformed into a place to house and care for ornamental fish. A well-maintained fish tank adds to the comfort level of a home. But it's not essential, and if it's not maintained, it can get dirty and reduce the comfort level.
'Comfort' is a newly added system that is set based on the overall state of the room. If the comfort level is high, she will feel less stressed, and vice versa if it is low.
I'm still working on it, so stay tuned for June when I'll be able to release a demo.
That's all, folks!
