Combat Dialogue, Settings Expansion, Steamworks Integration

Alpha 0.10.0

Dialogue

  • Implemented dialogue in combat.

Menus

  • Changed the sub-menu setup. There are now multiple sub-menus that house the options.

  • Implemented a help text system. When you hover certain settings, the menu will display text describing what that option does.

  • Video Settings

    • Added an option to switch between Windowed and Fullscreen mode.

    • Added an option to choose your aspect ratio. This doesn’t actually change anything, except what resolution options are given to you below that.

    • Added a resolution option that displays all resolutions their computer supports for the aspect ratio setting they’ve chosen. Keep in mind that the game is not set up to support all those aspect ratio yet. Resolutions in 16:9 will display properly, but other aspect ratios will just cut off parts of the screen currently.

  • Gameplay Settings

    • Moved the keybinding options and latency configuration settings into this menu.

    • Added a note speed option with a slider.

    • Added a text speed option with a slider.

  • Audio Settings: None of these are implemented, just an unusable button currently.

Steamworks Integration

  • Set up depots and build settings on steamworks and made it easier to quickly upload builds to steam.

  • Added an invisible pause state that pauses the game’s functionality and time without displaying anything on top of the gameplay.

  • Set it up so that opening the steam overlay will invisibly pause the game, pausing functionality and time without displaying anything on top of the gameplay.


Notable Bugs & Adjustments

  • Fixed an issue that was causing buttons to be activated twice quickly whenever the player clicked one with the mouse button.

  • Fixed several issues with held notes that caused their mid-sections to not work properly in certain cases, especially during note speed changes.

  • The main menu banner now displays the current version.

++ many minor bugs and adjustments.
