This month I've been slowly working away at Flute's house which is on Maple Isle and it's where the story of the demo left off.

There's still a lot of assets that need to be made for it, however the layout will (probably) stay like this

This image above is of the kitchen and the undecorated sewing room which are downstairs.

This is the attic where later you will be able to find a telescope to gaze at the stars

Rubber Bugs are little bugs that you can bounce on.

Rugs (my awesome shortened version) also naturally walk around a set path.

You can also attack the Rugs and they will flip over for a few seconds.

As said in the previous newsletter, the current level select was a placeholder and right now I'm working on the real level select.

It's not fully functional yet but hopefully you see my vision with this prototype of it.

Balloons are new props that you can use to reach some high spots

Flute can grab the balloon and then move around or jump off of it any time. Originally they were supposed to act pretty much like a bounce pad but I think this is more interesting.

Ledge Grab

I've modified some of the stuff related to the ledge grab to make it more consistent and less buggy.
One of the examples is that previously there were edge cases where you could grab onto any point of an angled box (which is not how it's supposed to work).

Cloud Fog

Cloud Fog is an effect that I've been experimenting with to make sure you can't see the void below the clouds.

As you can see, when compared the cloud fog hides the fact that there is nothing below the clouds.
It's still something I will keep tweaking since it doesn't work properly all of the time.
