As the work on episode 16 is going smoothly, I'm tackling the last scene with all of its backgrounds and the music finished already, I'm taking time to add to the tech demo:
I've added a cursor and mouse controls to the game. The mouse only appears when the pause menu is triggered, making the navigation easier for keyboard + mouse controls.
Outside of the pause menu, the mouse now rotates the camera. Camera that I pushed back a bit, due to feeling a bit too close to the character. No scrolling to zoom in or out, I reckon it's not that necessary.
And last but not least, a loading screen with random animations each time. Only 3 but it's better than nothing. Just a little screen as to not wait in the void with no indication that the game is working. Once I get the code going for that, I'll focus on the camera not phasing through walls with a Spring arm and then, that's version 0.3!
