Notes

Design

• Twinstick!!
• The demo I have is there -- great starting place and a couple nice addons

BUGS

• Scripts that track by a map of instance id are a hard pattern
  • Abstract the "enter/exit" area and map of in-area logic as a helper
  • This is used by enemies for AOE attacking as well as gatherables!!

Work / TODO

  • Movement of PC, WASD + mouse for now, controllers later
  • DONE: WASD move relative to camera, face mouse projected to plane
• DONE Resource collection
  • Get a couple different resource types and passively harvest when nearby
  • DONE: We have rocks and trees
• Building things?
  • DONE Make a miner
• Firing a weapon (build it first!)
  • DONE
• Enemies / AI
  • DONE Something to break miners -- and you

• Make a survival loop + score + death/restart
