lfz-battle's Issues

Add sounds for rest of game

User can hear sound

Making a new class that handles the audio for the user will help manage sounds in the game

Will also be related to the ability of loading assets before the game starts.

Add more npcs!

User can view loading screen

With network throttling, I notice that the assets take a bit to load. There is alot of json files containing data that is needed.

Starting with a loading screen will look cleaner, and awaiting loading of all the assets will have the game run smoother.

Research Web Works for background loading or write script to load assets

Preload maps

User can explore multiple maps

Will be a pain having to add more maps with the set grid system, but super doable.

User can enter rooms in home map

The home map has many building that cannot be entered, and we need maps for the other houses to enter.

User can view scene transition

When a scene is transitioning its fairly sporadic and we see the character move all weird

If we can freeze the game at a screen transition.

Drop the opacity to 0 on an overlay

Set a small Delay

And display the screen again, it should help this issue,

Typo on jQuery question

Small typo in battle.json on the question "jQuery is a ____", where the fourth answer is "A lifestyle". To match the format of the other answers, it should just be 'Lifestyle'.

I can fix this bad boy up!

Add more questions

Need to sit down and collect more questions for the npcs
