Chapter 3: Popup Forest

With another update comes new things!

Trees in the forest! Scenery will exist in the game now! These all have digitally-painted textures as well.

Sea Spires! I'm not 100% sure what these are going to really mean but they're gonna be something new and cool!

Proc-gen in world chunks! Of course coming with scenery I wanted to approach this as best as possible. These kinds of games require a TON of variety to make every new place you see feel new or at least unique. Which means tons of chunks to hand craft and then put them into an array of other chunks.

This alone doesn't make the cake though. So, scenery is also proc-gen from chunk to chunk. Rocks and flowers have a set range of area they can be moved around onto. And they can also be hidden. Sections of trees also have this feature to create interesting areas in the forest such as clearings. This combined might allow you to find clearings filled with flowers! Or dense forests void of all else.

My personal favorite part of this update.....YOU CAN FLY HIGH NOW! After much thinking and playtesting I decided to work on the camera controller more to allow you to fly higher up into the sky! This really adds so much more depth and enjoyability to the game. Currently there's nothing special up in the clouds though.

This is the newest snack-sized chapter in the game's development :D
