Depressed [Slightly :3]

Posted by RICANJO on July 14, 2007, 1:08 a.m.

I really should be optimistic, but i'm really down at the moment. I really don't know why. And it's really odd. I mean, I had my school prom a few days ago, which was great. I've just got a job working in a games shop, which is something I've really wanted to do. I've got loads of time off which is excellent. And I'm seeing all my friends everyday, which I really enjoy.

But I just feel…

I dunno. It's just hard to explain. It's probably just depression.

[EDIT]

I knew it wouldn't last. I'm feeling more optimistic already. Ha, you wouldn't think telling people your problems would help make you feel better eh? :P

[/EDIT]

Ignoring my strange mood, in terms of Game Maker related news, I'm working hard on Untitled Horror Project. I'm not sure if anyone actually reads the project info for it; I try to update it everytime I add something new to the game.

The latest additions are the energy bar which slowly decreases as you run, and will also decrease for other activities. A room indicator has been added that tells you of your current area. And I've also added a heart rate meter that rises/decreases depending on the current situation. Obviously, if it gets too high, Anthony stops and has to wait a period of time to recover.

Hopefully this is turning out well. Next thing I'll be working on is an inventory, and when that's done, I can continue working on the story. For good measure, I'll give you a few screenshots of what I've got so far:

I noticed I've got just over 1770 hits now, so thanks for reading ;D

Blogging off. Ric.

Thanks for all your comments about the style of the game, I wasn't sure about the tiles, since they look very dithered.
