The World Map

Aaaand we return, slightly more well rested and ready to get back into the action!

Now that the desert and desert town is in place, it's time to update the world map into a somewhat final version (there's still the ghost ship remaining, but I'll easily be able to add that later, as it's in the midst of the water anyways)!!

Let's take a look:

So basically, this is what the world map will look like after you've visited all of the areas (except the ghost ship):

So exciting! Only one more little ship to add, and then it's all done. I've reworked the shadows that covers each area before you've explored it slightly as well, so you'll notice things will look a bit different once this has been implemented. There will be 12 pieces to uncover in total, once the ghost ship has been added (13 if you count Tai Ming - but the Tai Ming piece of the map isn't visible at all until you've actually been there). Right now I think there are a couple more than that since we wanted to make sure we had space for the areas we hadn't designed yet, and their shapes look a little random. The water will be visible from the start, giving the map some more color from the beginning, as well.

Exciting times! This actually feels like such a huge milestone, even if the ghost ship is missing. I mean, even if the ship is missing - it looks complete on a whole different level compared to before. It's been a long journey, but you can finally start to see it all coming together!
