After an hour or so of writing headers (just enough so I could do this) later, I made a thing that allows you to unlock levels at whatever conditional you want, such as receiving item unlocks for a potential Splatoon Archipelago implementation! (more technical details down below)

Just got a rough prototype working for my message receiving system for my Splatoon 1 Archipelago mod that I've been working on this weekend, there's still a lot I have to do but it's nice to have a PoC, the messages are currently being sent over UDP but I'll have to switch to websockets soonish

Here's the first prototype of my enemy randomizer, gonna have to implement some logic so that you won't get a squee-g in sections where you have to defeat all the enemies to progress or just cut them, it's also funny seeing how the octostrikers work outside of their own stages which I'll deal with

Got it working so that it includes the hero shot as well, and at the proper level (no roller in this clip because I messed up something, but now that’s fixed)

Got a weapon randomizer that picks a random weapon every time you load into a stage or go into the world map, not gonna include it into the first beta release yet though (video is like this due to my scuffed setup as i'm playing on my laptop)
