Development Status Update #2 - Weapons, Trees, And More


Welcome to the second development status update for Johnny's Basic Survival Game! Its been a few days since the first dev status update, and in that time I have gotten a lot accomplished. In this post, I will talk about a few of those things, and also some future things hopefully coming soon. 

First, now I have added weapons! There is currently only one, but I hope to add some more soon. The weapon I have added is an axe, and at the moment its used for chopping down trees and killing animals (this will change later). After picking it up, the way you equip it is by going to your inventory and clicking on the axe icon with your mouse. After you do that, when you exit your inventory,  you will now be holding the axe! To unequip it, press the F key. This is a great thing for the game because now it makes it more complete, although it is still far from it.

Next, along with an axe, I have also adding wood chopping! I added a tree to the map, which you can cut down by right clicking with the axe equipped. When it disappears, it will drop a wood item, which at the moment doesn't do anything (but that's to come in the future).

Lastly, I have given the items proper textures, and replaced the placeholder icon in the inventory for them with a new icon that matches what kind of item it is, as you can see in the second picture. Also, water is not the only type of item anymore, now there are 3 types, water, food, and wood. 

So yeah, that about wraps up this update. As for the first playable pre-alpha version, I might release it today or tomorrow.  Once again, I am still looking for help, so if you want to help me make the game better by working with me, that would really help me out! Anyways, I will see you in the next update, so goodbye for now!
