it’s feeling really solid now, which means I can finally start adding the pretty stuff — woot woot!

Mandy can change outfits now! I can do unlocks, full model swaps, the whole deal — but honestly? just messing with colour variants already feels really nice 😭💙

silly update time 😂
if you’re wondering how far the outfit switching goes… you can actually play as any character lol
yes, even a zero-eyed imp 👀
(can only do a basic 2-hit combo, no jump, no skills… extremely cursed, 10/10)

been really enjoying working on the outfit system lately 👀✨
having clean, flexible menu UI has been such a treat honestly
quick question for gamers: what kind of outfits do you like seeing in games?
cozy? stylish? silly? lore-heavy? (pls keep it SFW 😅)

planning to bring a bit more classic platforming back into SOE 👀✨
things like spinning on lamps, auto-jumping from rooftops to ropes, and proper rope climbing

another update because why not 👀
probably my last UI update for a bit
the save UI isn’t showing the most accurate info yet, but it is loading, saving, and even auto-saving correctly, which is the important part ✨
taking a break from UI now. my brain needs it.

made a small effect so Mandy doesn’t get hidden when running through bushes helps a ton when zoomed out and makes the world way more fun to just hop around in.
quick question for gamers: what makes platforming feel good to you? camera? visibility? movement speed? 👀

Okay so SOE has the sparkles back ✨
they mark what’s climbable, very Sly-inspired!
they’re a bit hard to see right not.
AND under the hood? I made a little tool to help set up all those playable points.

busy refactoring the animation system so I can do more with it and save time when setting up other characters later on.
question for gamers & devs: what’s an animation detail that instantly makes a character feel good to play?
