development devlog

i had almost no time to do this because of my games

i wanted to focus on them

so i only had 2 hours every 4 days to program

i made this in 6 hours i faced a lot of problems mainly because shortage of my time

First was making a game related to an ecosystem

I thought about plants and trees first but then i thought about something more important "the ecosystem" the main protector for earth that people destroy using cfc and methane

Second thing was who is the main enemy

I decided that they would be aliens who want to destroy our Earth by destroying the ozone layer then launching a big laser towards earth (they want to destroy ozone layer because it will protect the earth if it's completely repaired)

Second problem :

While programming the boss i wanted to make different attacks. I wanted to make the boss move while attacking and after the first attack. I went to the player to make a bullet and i did it after the bullet hits the boss it disappears.

I realized that disappearing isn't a good idea so i added explosion on touching the boss and i changed the queue_free time to after the explosion finishes (0.7).

3rd problem was the glow.i know glow would add a lot of difference to my game but i also know that some people prefer just pixels without glowing so i made the option to choose glow intensity and strength by using a horizontal slider .

4th problem: i felt that something was incomplete and then i recognized it was the sound that gives the game some energy and activity. I didn't use any audios from any website or person but I wanted to try making my effects and music for the first time(i went on to try something different and learn instead of focusing on quality) after Adding music i added an option to turn it off and on so if the player wants to focus on the sound effects .

5th problem : i wanted all the players to have access to my game and easily play it so

I removed unnecessary files in my game before exporting them and i exported a html version of my game and my game's size is only 15 mb

6th problem :

I wanted to make everyone take most advantage of my game and i wanted them to understand everything in my game.

So i made a tutorial with not only text but also some images .i also included that they can increase the glow or decrease it in the tutorial.

I wanted my game to be proper so i added a complete main menu with start button and tutorial and an exit button .

That's it ,thanks for reading.
