And to end this week, we have an update from the animation and programming department!
Teddy is now working on implementing and polishing the Ghost Ship mechanics (and catching the occasional bug in the beta), while Fred's full focus is on the Captain we talked about earlier!
There's a lot of strange animation needed for him, and since you'll only see the sword outside of the spirit world, it's a bit of a hassle getting everything to work smoothly. Now, the idle animation is completed, and he's working on getting the attacks down.
Big boss sprites like this are the most difficult to make, so we expect he'll be busy with this for quite some time while me and Teddy continue working on the other parts of the ship!
When testing something, Fred also accidentally made the funniest animation of the captain laughing. Perhaps it will end up being used!?
perhaps have it be something he does if you die to him? looks like a nice taunt for him to do.
