It's been a good week for Minotaur - a few key upgrades took up my development time (which is finding a rhythm that fits into my life without dominating it), including reworking how sprites are rendered - specifically adding scale, rotation, and color filtering. This gives me a lot more power and really expands the amount of polish/shine/feedback/juice that I can provide. It's one of those major wins for adding a lot of little things to make every action feel satisfying.
However, there's still a tremendous amount of work to pour into making a decent engine. One of the big ones will be deciding how to handle the object list, particles, collision, saving/loading, and a myriad of other things I haven't thought of yet. In the end though, it should pay off when I get to working with a solid engine - so much dev time will be saved later.
See you next week.
