Final Devlog

There was some issues with linking my game, but now everything is set, and I even did some more optimizations. Please play my game on itch.io, and you can see the github with all my code linked as well.

In This Economy!? - Devlog 5

Yay, it’s done. Please play it and provide feedback so that I can make the game better in the future!

• Itch.io page is finished up
• Added 2 more tracks
• Added some more sound effects
• Added a tutorial at the beginning of the game
• Fixed some more bugs and graphical issues
• Game works on mobile, and desktop (mouse and spacebar works)
• Added achievements to track the player’s progress
• Added another minigame project, each with their own win and death screens now.
• Some Final QOL stuff to finish

There are some minor graphical issues, but they are mainly unnoticable. I also plan to improve the performance of the game in the backend after this project is shipped :)

Thanks!

In This Economy!? - Devlog 4

I did a ton of more changes again, but mainly it’s just Quality of Life stuff, mainly from my friends playtesting the game for me:

Big Changes:

• 2 More music tracks and 10 more paper sounds added
• Added a start screen that players can type into
• Added a new project minigame to balance out the game in general

Smaller Changes:

• The game is more balanced
• Replaced the Quit button with a Credits button because this game will be played on the web
• Changed the projects tab to be more understandable

[PLACEHOLDER] - Devlog 3

I added a bunch of things, because I’m nearing the deadline (only 2 days left :0)

Big changes:

• Added a lot of SFX and Music, mostly done by me but also sourced from online
• Added more art for projects and the background using Aseprite
• Added Title Screen with start and quit buttons
• Added End Screen for when you win the game
• Made my first project for the projects tab
• Made more active UI
• How To Play section is complete
• Updated the layout entirely

QOL stuff:

• Added settings for Music and SFX in the settings section
• Added Credits
• Entire project is organized to make things easier to access
• Scrolling background in the main menu, along with custom shader and particle animations just for fun
• Better animations so that things don’t suddenly appear or disappear

Still have a lot more things to do, but it should be doable yay.

[PLACEHOLDER] - Devlog 2

Added more functionality:

• There is now a tab system that players can click through
• Base upgrades are now available, and are functional
• Changed a few sprites to make disabled button sprites, and fit the theme more of applying to jobs

I plan to add more places to spin, as that’s a key mechanic for this game.
I want it to be as accessible too, so a tutorial is also necessary to make at some point.

[PLACEHOLDER] - Devlog 1

Currently don’t have much done, but added some basic spin functionality, along with some pass and fail results. There isn’t much else yet, but I plan to add some upgrades and make the sprites a little better before the 7th day. Don’t have a name yet.

This is a game I am working on that combines both rhythm and incremental genres to make something that remains fun over time. Currently, I am reworking my core mechanic as it doesn’t feel as fun as I want it. I’m experimenting with a match 3 mechanic to hopefully get some fun gameplay!
