Luanti Game Jam: Day 19

Day 19

I have, for the most part, finalised level 21. This took quite a bit of work, but I'm in the final stretch.

At this point, it's just adding a GUI for changing the level, a credits screen, and some target callbacks, and I should be about done.

Checklist from yesterday

[ ] Work on endgame (boss fight)

• [x] Boss fight:
• Timed
• [ ] Add optional callbacks when the target is clicked and when dialogue ends (for boss fight)
• [ ] Add the option for custom coloured dialogue (for AI character text)

• [ ] Add a credits screen
• [ ] Add a GUI for going back to previous levels

[ ] Level tweaks:

• [ ] Have a more "random" initial reflector placement in levels 13 and 14
• [ ] Extend level 18

• [ ] Code cleanup

[ ] Work on stuff for submitting to ContentDB:

• [ ] Update README to further explain what the game/story is about
• [ ] Explain some of the decisions I made that may not be obvious at first
• [ ] More/better screenshots
