Chop Chop - Post Game Jam Summary/ future improvements

Chop Chop - post game jam

Ill be making a YouTube video on the jam going into more detail.

This game was great fun to make. The initial idea for the game was to chop trees as fast as you can in the day. as the days pass within game the tiles on the ground get infected blocking your path to the trees. slowing downing you tree chopping process.  chopping trees down grants you gold which you can use to upgrade your axe, buy new tools and land.

I only managed to implement the tree chopping and the day night cycle. also the trees drop a coin.  

I used 2D lighting for the first time which i look to explore more in the future, to create better looking games.

I discovered i need to practice more in unity. my C# skills lacked throughout the Jam so ill be actively looking at trying to improve my programming skills.

features I want to add: 

• upgrade axe.
• buy new tools e.g a hoe to change the infected ground back to normal.
• buying new land.
• home area that you can upgrade and customize with more buildings etc.

improvements:

I also want to fix the grid system as the trees spawn in the corners of the squares and not the Centre, same with the coins.

and if a tree spawns on a infected square destroy it.
