Overview

I have completed the needs system for the player. I'm now going to work on the map generation of my game. In this context, it's space generation. For the prototype I am only adding wrecks and trading ships.
Roadmap

Detailed View

Wrecks
The wrecks in the game will allow the collection of scraps, canned food, and water. The scraps will be the way you repair your ship when it is damaged.
Trading Ships
The trading ships will allow you to sell and buy items. You can sell any item to them. The only things that I will add to buy is food, water, and scraps. There will be more items to add after the prototype.

Below is the road map to my space game (working on name)

How will it Work?

I am going to work on the needs system and progress through the arrows. I will post updates of each finished sections of the roadmap. I will also give incite of each section as I start working on them.

Space Game

Background

I'm working on a game involving in space. The basic goal of the game is that you're alone in a run down spaceship. And you're struggling to survive. Once you get the hang of surviving though, you can start making a name for yourself.

First Change

Through my struggles I wanted to make this as a terminal style game. But as I've realized the struggles and limitations of trying to represent a game in terminal, I have switched to doing 2D graphics. For simplicity and for better quality outputs.

What's being Worked on?
