Hey,
AlienKat here, I'm happy to announce that all the core loop mechanics are done! Well, more or less done since there's probably many bugs to fix and more polishing to do. Outside of saving/loading, every important mechanic I wanted is now in the game. This is a pretty big milestone, especially since I never thought I'd progress this far.  There is still much to do such as saving/loading, but I do have a general direction of how to tackle that. As for the bugs, I just have to rewrite some of the functions for detecting outlines. Although for the steps I have no idea. I think it might just be my computer since my computer likes to stutter a lot. I do know a brute force fix. But if the bug is from me and not the game, making a fix might break something.


PARANORMAL EVENTS

Thats just a fancy name I made up for things such as jumpscares and the like. Originally they were static as in they would trigger always. Now they trigger on random, based on the Sam's actions. It's good to remember that curiousity killed the cat.

BLESSING

Its possible to revive on the spot with full health if the Sam has a blessing. Blessing is a status effect that prevents the her from dying. It also cancels the effects of possession when player starts getting damaged. Praying to certain crosses gives the effect, although it disappears on use. 

POSSESSION

When Sam takes damage black smoke will start to form under her growing as she takes more damage. Once health is zero, Sam will get pulled into it. There is another effect that happens, but I don't want to spoil it.
