Finish touches on Hscenes, Dialogue, and Transmission Sequences.

Heyo everyone! Here we go again! This week was a bit of monotonous work that I failed to get around to earlier, but I'll break it all down here!

First thing I actually did was a bit of work in the menus. Making it slightly more managable with gamepad. Another step in moving to the new input system ahaha.

Still some work to do on it though. (Like with the dialogue system)

Next was finishing off some of the final bits on the Hscenes.. like the "splat" effects, the SFX, the climax animations, and the button functions.

Next was writing all the Transmission Dialogue in Pearlus 2. This is where we will be introducing Freya and Tiger.

Freya, Siren, and Tiger are all of different factions, so they don't work too well together.

Freya and Tiger have their own things to contribute.

As you see above, Freya dive bombs the enemy's largest cluster of enemies.

and Tiger provides support in the depths.

Upon blasting the blockage, the currents summoned by the Tiderunners propel you forward.

Zoooooooom

I also did some final balancing with enemy spawns. Though there isn't much point in showing this ahaha. But!

Here are some more small dialogue sections

I scaled these guys up, as they were kind of too small to be a threat before

With that I also wrote up Siren's remaining 2 conversations for the hub.

There is still a decent amount to do. I still need to add emotion triggers to the hub dialogue. There is still actually some polish to do on the level.. especially with the boss' intro and death sequences.

Next week is going to be patching these up. It will mainly be focused on new "features" though. This means adding Siren's upgrade to her ability. I also will need to add Pom's base functions within the Hub. This should lead in to the Hscene with her as well. If I manage to get this done in a timely manner, I will be returning to the ol' list of bugs/features.

Anyways! With that, I will catch you all next week! Thanks again everyone for the support! I hope you are all looking forward to Pearlus2!
