Primrose Dungeon 2 - Test build 1.2 [Info and instructions]

IMPORTANT: READ INSTRUCTIONS AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS POST ON HOW TO PLAY TO TEST THE NEW FEATURES, THIS PROTOTYPE HAS NO BUILT-IN TUTORIAL

New features:

• Support for multiple characters

We can now have multiple characters on scene, for this test build 2 Primrose characters are on scene for testing, the player will be able to spawn and have different characters on future builds.

• Selecting characters to give orders with the pointing mechanic

The most important feature added in this build is being able to select a character to give orders.

The only order implemented in this build is ordering a character to move to a specific position without physically interacting, but this will be used to order characters to interact with eachother and use objects in the scene in future builds.

• Ordering characters to move

Once a character is selected, select where you want this character to move.

• Realistic character orientation for movement from pushing/pulling

Characters being pulled will now rotate to have a more realistic movement.
