Cat Game TODO List

• Concept / Programming
  • Need to come up with name.
  • Need levels starting from very simple, hand crafted levels to teach the system to players, to medium difficulty, hard difficulty levels, and the boss level (serpent).
  • Skills for serpent - world blink and spawn PD.
  • Custom Levels - tweak levels and play just to get to the end (kind of what it is now), variables set difficulty.
  • BALANCING, improve gameplay. - can always be improved though.
  • Pick up multiple kittens?
  • Scoring system - saving kittens from PD?
  • Progres save/load at each level completion
• Art
  • New floor and wall tiles - perhaps slightly higher angle to see more? - could use more details (rocks, markings on walls, etc), and perhaps doodad tiles like the lamp before
  • Player character with animations and 4 facing directions.
  • Shadow that covers the tiles with gradient (done in code?), different for darkness and PD?
  • Kitten characters - need simple animation - tail move?
  • Serpent character (with animations?)
  • Exit / goal - pedestal of light, light shining around it, version with cat on top for perma cats in final battle.
  • Start screen, victory screen, lose screen, background (what is behind the tiles), gui (icons to know how many charges of light left, and how many kittens held)
  • Minimap tiles (can be simple, need to be small to fit the whole map)
  • Animations for skills for both player and serpent (blink, etc)
  • Inspiration (my cats):
        
        
    
• Music
  • Sun music (that can fade into night as the darkness covers the world again?) - sound effect?
  • Victory music - short riff
  • Lose music - short riff
  • Boss night music
  • Make sure all the music fits well together
  • Sound effects for all skills, cats, serpent, getting consumed by darkness (you or cat), and perhaps a step sound when you walk.
