HOMEWORK Week  6

For this homework, we will need to explore GD script. I plan learn some physic engine. 

I follow this tutorial. I'm lazy to write, just watch this basically the same thing 😴. 

Week  7

I'm mainly dealing with the 3D assets so far. 

Character 3D models

Environment 3D models

Character animation

For character animation. I follow these steps: 

1. Riggings (Blender)
2. Animation keyframes (Blender)
3. Animation Tree (Godot)

In Godot, Aniamtion Tree and AnimationPlayer node are used. AnimationStateNodeMachine to link the animation states.

Week  8

Researhing on more thing about the Godot this week, just mess around and found out. 

Some of the questions I have in the development progress:

1. What's the easy way to do map?
2. How to do water?
3. Shader in Godot? How to use it? 
4. How to render the gameplay viewport in pixel art style? 

Week  15

The Level 3 map is lil bit too hard, so I introduce some mechanisms :

1. Grass Spawning

After a radiation zone is cleared (when enough sunflowers are planted), spawn 3-5 Grass.tscn instances at random positions within the cleared zone area. This happens automatically after the radiation box visual clears and RadiantGrass blocks are converted.

1. Double Jump
2. Grenade Jump

This kinda make player think in another layers, make it more strategic and flexible.
