Post-Jam Update


I've made some small changes to the game now that Jame Gam 36 is over. First, the shop now displays the Snekman as being worth $15, which was a change I made to the code right before submitting the game to the jam but something I forgot to update in the box. Second, you can now open the inventory when you're in the shop, which was another thing I forgot to implement. Finally, you can close the inventory after you open it by pressing I instead of having to click the X with your mouse every time. That wasn't something I considered a problem while making the game, but it did negatively impact the gameplay for at least one person who reviewed this for the jam. I'm still new to Godot and game development in general, but the feedback I've gotten from my first few efforts have been really valuable, and I'm hoping everything I've learned so far will make my next game even better.

This will likely be my last update to this game, unless it starts getting a lot more attention. There are some things I wanted to do early in this game's development that I eventually abandoned, like way more Pocket Freaks than the current four with different types (Candleman being a Fire type, Snekman and the others being Grass types, and there also being Water types you could fish for in another outside areas). In order to keep the game relatively short, I abandoned those plans, but if I revisit the game in the future, that will be first on my priority list. So, goodbye for now, and I hope you've enjoyed Pocket Freaks!
