Monday

This was a thesis day so I didn't worked on the game this day.

Tuesday

Music Department

• Hired and got together with a friend who knows about music to teach me some stuff on music composition.
  • This lasted like 5 hours where they taught me about music scales, chords and basic techniques to make melodies. In between we also watched youtube videos, petted cats and ate.
• Polished town theme.

Thursday

Programming Department

• Limited text in the overworld and cutscene app so that it doesn´t overflow their respective containers horizontally

• Gave space for three lines of text in the cutscene app
• Created intro cutscene in memory
• Added new game option to main menu
  • When selected starts a new game and plays the first cutscene
• Modified cutscene app so when pressing the action1 button and a scene hasn't finished it finishes it but it doesn't advances to the next scene
  • In the next gif the action1 button is pressed to make the text finish displaying and then to advance to the next scene:

• Added pauses while the text is displaying given by the commas and periods so it feels more like reading a journal

Other

• Made an excel file with the budget until now so if someone wants too make the same as me in the future they know how I did it
