As a puzzle fanatic, this looks like a good time! I can't play it right now, but I'm bookmarking this thread for later

For those wondering "why did he post now instead of waiting to recover fully?" it's stupid.
I thought the date this thread started was the end of Feb/start of March. It was, in fact, the end of March.

Alright, it has been a few months so let’s get a little update post out. This is sadly gonna be another one of those slim updates, but hopefully we’ll be out of those soon enough. In the meantime, let’s talk level editor . Doneish At the end of last year, I had started on the level editor. And now, ...

I started making a "map editor" at one point in hopes of streamlining/automating the process as much as possible, but then realized that I could design areas/levels just as fast in an image editor using a few layers and a grid with marked coordinants, and then code all the actual data lat...

Regular ol' love.graphics.draw lets you set a scaling factor for whatever's being drawn, which could be an option depending on your exact needs. But...

Thank you for the feedback! Things have actually been going much better than expected this fall, I've just been...not writing update posts :crazy: I'll try to throw together one more progress update sometime before the end of the year, since I really ought to at this point ... but for now it suffice...
