I really liked how Ghast came out it was so much fun to make her.
I think I'm going to put her in the game because I put too much effort into this not to do it

I think this is the coolest and most fun character I've made so far, but it almost looks out of place in the actual game, so I don't know if I'm going to use her or not😅

Added 2 more faces for this character because why not, huh?
Shout out to @RandomG3865578 on Twitter/X for these great facial expressions

Took a little break from game development for a while, came back to create this cool character, only to realize I probably won't put them in the game...

Eee-yup, everything's back to normal😅

Just finished the Splash Screen for my game
(There's still problem with the code, but I'll fix it later.
Still looks pretty good thought)

I added music every time you hover in the game
(I might change this thought because it doesn't feel like hover music I think)

I think this turned out okay...
(Been doing UI Stuff the last few days, and boy is it a pain)
(I never knew how out of touch I am with the widget blueprint system in Unreal Engine, design-wise)
But at least this can make me smile for a bit

I'm working on some funny aspects for my game today
New character time!
(This character only exists to make weird funny-looking faces)

Added a little air puff every time you jump/bounce
Tiny details like this are probably pointless,
but... it looks nice, right? 😅

I just realized something...I'd never showed what my game even is. 😅
Soooooooo, here you go!
It's a game were play as a turtle and use a toy ball to bounce high in the sky to get up a tree!

Man, I love programming stuff like this.
It's so funny sometimes😂

Who would have guessed that less frames and slowing down the speed of the animation makes it look better...
1st (Bad) 2 (Good)

I'm actually getting a little bit comfortable with making stuff in Krita😊

- Working on a Platform-type Character...?
Can't wait to put these guys in the game!👍

I swear I didn't do this on purpose, but why/how did I shaped this into a heart?😂
(Hmmm... I might have something funny in mind now...)

They came out better than I expected in the game, too

Bad news Linux users - packaging failed. Getting error trying to build the prototype "Missing precompiled manifest for 'PaperZD'" The plugin is needed during runtime, so I can't disable it.

PaperZD just got updated
Its kinda crazy how far they've gotten on this. Completing the work that Epic abandoned.
It would be great to dive into something like this, but I have no ideas on what to make with it.
Its amazing the fact that they keep updating after so long.
