The Thirst (My weekly game #17)

44pes

This week I enter the Game for Godot Wild Jam 6 with The Thirst . (Vote for me on itch.io )

It's the first time I've done this kind of games, so ... the game is not perfect. Although I think the story of the game has captured well the theme of the JAM: "Out of Place Cacti."

This is the first image of the story:

nice one 44pes, just did my voting.

nice vector art. how did you do the circle and arrow aiming? would you be happy to point me to a tutorial or supply to code for it?

The code ended up being a mess so I better explain how I did it.

The circle and arrow are two images that belong to the Player and their rotation centers are in the center of the Player node

Circle = $punto_mira/circulo Arrow = $punto_mira/flecha

The code to make the arrow follow the mouse is:

    func _physics_process(delta):
    	$punto_mira/flecha.look_at(get_global_mouse_position())

and when you shoot a "Tween" that modifies the size is executed:

tween.interpolate_method($punto_mira/punto, "set_scale", Vector2(0.5, 0.5), Vector2(0.4, 0.4), 0.25,Tween.TRANS_LINEAR, Tween.EASE_IN_OUT)
tween.interpolate_method($punto_mira/punto, "set_scale", Vector2(0.4, 0.4), Vector2(0.5, 0.5), 0.25,Tween.TRANS_LINEAR, Tween.EASE_IN_OUT,0.25)

The 1st tween part of the initial scale (0.5,0,5) and shrinks it and the second (which has a delay of 0.25s) returns it to its normal size

That's all XD

Nice. i get it, thanks
