77297fd60d Text Tool and Pan Tool
Two new tools added to the Level Editor:

* Pan Tool: left-click to scroll the level around safely.
* Text Tool: write text onto your level.

Features of the Text Tool:

* Can choose from the game's built-in fonts, size and enter the message
  you want to write.
* The mouse cursor previews the text when hovered over the level.
* Click to "stamp" the text onto your level. The currently selected
  color swatch will be used to color the text in.
* Adds two new fonts: Azulian.ttf and Rive.ttf that can be selected in
  the Text Tool.

Some implementation notes:

* Added package native/engine_sdl.go that handles the lower-level
  SDL2_TTF logic to rasterize the text into a black&white image.
* WASM not supported yet (if the game even still built for WASM);
  native/engine_wasm.go stubs out the TextToImage() call with a "not
  supported" error just in case.

Other changes:

* New Toolbar icons: they are 24x24 instead of 32x32 to make more room
  for more tools.
* The toolbar now shows two buttons per row for a more densely packed
  layout. For very narrow screen widths (< 600px) the default Vertical
  Toolbar layout will use one-button-per-row to not eat too much screen
  real estate.
* In the Horizontal Toolbars layout there are 2 buttons per column.

962098d4e7 v0.11.0 last minute tweaks
* When playing as the Bird, the dive attack is able to destroy other
  mobile doodads such as Azulians and Thieves.
* The Box has been made invulnerable so it can't be destroyed by Anvils
  or player-controlled Birds.
* Bugfixes with pop-up modals:
  * The quit game confirm modal doesn't appear if another modal is
    already active on screen.
  * The Escape key can dismiss Alert and Confirm modals.
* Add "Level" menu items to Play Mode to restart the level or retry from
  the last checkpoint (in case of softlocks, etc.)

40cb9f15cb Prepare v0.11.0 for release (+ fixes)
* The title screen now loads the default maps from a LevelPack. The game
  no longer ships with the Tutorial levels in the "levels" folder as
  default; they are in the LevelPack so the "Edit Drawing" screen begins
  as a blank slate for only user levels.
* Add the Zoo level to the Tutorial levelpack
* Bugfixes around changing the player character to work around clipping
  issues if the character has changed height drastically.
2022-02-20 17:48:07 -08:00
1205dc2cd3 Invulnerable Anvil and other fixes
* Add methods `Invulnerable() bool` and `SetInvulnerable(bool)` to the
  Actor API accessible in JavaScript (e.g. `Self.SetInvulnerable(true)`)
* The Anvil is invulnerable - when played as, it can crush other mobs by
  jumping on them but is not defeated by those mobs at the same time.
* Anvils don't destroy invulnerable mobs, such as other Anvils.
* Bugfix: the Electric Door is considered to be opened from the first
  frame of animation when the door begins opening, and remains opened
  until the final frame of animation when it is closing.
* New cheat code: `megaton weight` to play as the Anvil by default.
2022-02-20 11:48:36 -08:00
0fc046250e Window Focus Bugfixes
* Fix the Doodad Dropper and Registration windows not stealing the focus
  when they are opened via menu bars.
* Bugfixes in gamepad support: stop at the first controller found,
  Draw() to handle controllers going away and hide the mouse cursor
2022-02-19 20:20:58 -08:00
4de0126b19 Game Controller Support
Adds support for Xbox and Nintendo style game controllers. The gamepad
controls are documented on the README and in the game's Settings window.

The buttons are not customizable yet, except that the player can choose
between two button styles:

* X Style (default): "A" button is on the bottom and "B" on the right.
* N Style: swaps the A/B and the X/Y buttons to use a Nintendo-style
  layout instead of an Xbox-style.

626fd53a84 Checkpoint Flag can Re-assign Player Character
Link a Doodad to a Checkpoint Flag (like you would a Start Flag) and
crossing the flag will replace the player with that doodad. Multiple
checkpoint flags like this can toggle you between characters.

* Azulians are now friendly to player characters who have the word
  "Azulian" in their title.
* Improve Bird as the playable character:
  * Dive animation if the player flies diagonally downwards
  * Animation loop while hovering in the air instead of pausing
* Checkpoint flags don't spam each other on PubSub so much which could
  sometimes lead to deadlocks!

SetPlayerCharacter added to the JavaScript API. The Checkpoint Flag
(not the region) can link to a doodad and replace the player character
with that linked doodad when you activate the checkpoint:

    Actors.SetPlayerCharacter(filename string): like "boy.doodad"

Add various panic catchers to make JavaScript safer and log issues
to console.

44aba8f1b4 White Azulian, Respawn invincibility timer
* Respawning from a checkpoint grants 3 seconds of immunity in case
  enemies are spawn camping.
* Add the white Azulian as an even faster and harder enemy than the red
  Azulian: twice as fast, jumps higher, and can detect the player from
  further away.
2022-01-18 18:32:15 -08:00
3f7e384633 Invincibility Cheat
Add cheat `god mode` that toggles invincibility. Fire pixels and hostile
mobs can't fail the level for you.
2022-01-17 22:02:27 -08:00
9201475060 Update Doodad JS API + Hostile mobs
New functions are available on the JavaScript API for doodads:

* Actors.At(Point) []*Actor: returns actors intersecting a point
* Actors.FindPlayer() *Actor: returns the nearest player character
* Actors.New(filename string): create a new actor (NOT TESTED YET!)
* Self.Grounded() bool: query the grounded status of current actor

With this the game's built-in doodads have been revised:

* Bird: will now scan 240 pixels diagonally searching for the player
  character and will dive if seen. The Bird is dangerous while
  diving. It will return to its original altitude once it touches
  the ground.
* Azulians: the Azulians are now dangerous to player characters but
  not to the Thief. Azulians will begin to follow the player when
  they are within the aggro range and will hop if the player is
  above them to try and overcome obstacles.
  * Blue Azulian: aggro is (250, 100) jump speed 12 movement 2
  * Red Azulian: aggro is (250, 200) jump speed 14 movement 4

1cc6eee5c8 Refactor Level Publishing + MagicForm
* magicform is a helper package that may eventually be part of the go/ui
  library, for easily creating structured form layouts.
* The Level Publisher UI is the first to utilize magicform.

Refactor how level publishing works:

* Level data now stores SaveDoodads and SaveBuiltins (bools) and when
  the level editor saves the file, it will attach custom and/or builtin
  doodads just before save.
* Move the menu item from the File menu to Level->Publish
* The Publisher UI just shows the checkboxes to toggle the level
  settings and a convenient Save button along with descriptive text.
* Free versions get the "Register" window popping up if they click the
  Save Now button from within the publisher window.

Note: free versions can still toggle the booleans on/off but their game
will not attach any new doodads on save.

* Free games which open a level w/ embedded doodads will get a pop-up
  warning that the doodads aren't available.
* If they DON'T turn off the SaveDoodads option, they can still edit and
  save the level and keep the existing doodads attached.
* If they UNCHECK the option and save, all attached doodads are removed
  from the level.

4d08bf1d85 Switch JavaScript engine to goja
* Switch from otto to goja for JavaScript engine.
* goja supports many ES6 syntax features like arrow functions,
  const/let, for-of with more coming soon.
* Same great features as otto, more modern environment for doodads!

9e4f34864d Remove MsgPack, Fix doodad display on top/left edges
* Clean up unused msgpack code for levels and doodads
* Fix the cosmetic bug where actors in your level would display wrongly
  when scrolling off the top/left edges of the screen: they used to
  anchor at their own 0,0 coordinate and crop their width/height leading
  to a 'scrolling' effect that didn't happen on the right/bottom edges.

cbd7816fdf Easter Egg: RiveScript Chatbot
The Default handler of the developer command shell now calls out to
RiveScript to match the user's message to a friendly reply. If
RiveScript returns NoReplyMatched then give the "command not found"
error.
2022-01-08 19:21:08 -08:00
48e18da511 Centralize cheats, detect cheated player character
* If the player runs the PlayAsBird cheat they shouldn't be able to win
  a high score on a level, so at level startup it detects whether the
  DefaultPlayerCharacterDoodad has changed from default on a level that
  doesn't use the Start Flag to set a specific doodad - and immediately
  marks the session as cheated
2022-01-08 18:27:37 -08:00
9a51ac39f9 Spit and polish
* New doodad: Invisible Warp Door
* All warp doors require the player to be grounded (if affected by
  gravity) to open them. No jumping or falling thru and opening
  a warp door mid-air!
* Title Screen now randomly selects from a couple of levels.
* Title Screen: if it fails to load a level it sets up a basic
  blank level with a wallpaper instead.
* New developer shell command: titlescreen <level>
  Opens the MainScene with a custom user level as the background.
* Add Auto-save to the Editor to save your drawing every 5 minutes
* Add a MenuBar to the Play Scene for easier navigation to other
  features of the game.
* Doodad JS API: time.Since() now available.
2022-01-02 22:36:32 -08:00
672ee9641a Savegame and High Scores
* Adds pkg/savegame to store user progress thru Level Packs.
* The savegame.json is mildly tamper resistant by including a checksum
  along with the JSON body.
* The checksum combines the JSON string + an app secret (in savegame.go)
  + user specific entropy (stored in their settings.json). If the user
  modifies their save file and the checksum becomes invalid the game
  will not load the save file, acting like it didn't exist, resetting
  all their high scores.

Updates to the Story Mode window:

* On the LevelPacks list: shows e.g. "[completed 0 of 3 levels]" showing
  a user's progress thru the level pack.
* Below the levels on the Detail screen:
  * Shows an indicator whether the level is completed or not.
  * Shows high scores (fastest times beating the level)
  * Shows a padlock icon if levels are locked and the player hasn't
    reached them yet. Pops up an Alert modal if a locked level is
    clicked on.

Scoring is based around your fastest time elapsed to finish the level.

* Perfect Time (gold coin): player has not died during the level.
* Best Time (silver coin): player has continued from a checkpoint.

In-game an elapsed timer is shown in the top left corner along with the
gold or silver coin indicating if your run has been Perfect.

If the user enters any Cheat Codes during gameplay they are not eligible
to win a high score, but the level will still be marked as completed.
The icon next to the in-game timer disappears when a cheat code has been
entered.

d16a8657aa Window Icon, UI Polish
* SDL2 builds of the game now set their app window icon.
* Create/Edit Level window is updated to show a tabbed UI to create a
  new Level or a new Doodad. The dedicated main menu button to create a
  new doodad (which immediately prompted for its size) is replaced by
  this new tab's UI.
* Edit Drawing/Play Level window is more responsive to smaller screen
  sizes by drawing fewer columns of filenames.
* Bugfix: the Alert and Confirm modals always re-center themselves on
  screen, especially to adapt between Portrait or Landscape mode on a
  mobile device.
2021-12-30 16:31:45 -08:00
6d3ffcd98c Finalize basic functionality for Level Packs
* The "Story Mode" button on the MainScene opens the levelpacks window.
* Levelpacks from all places are shown (built-in and user files), basic
  level picker works.
* When playing a level out of a levelpack: the PlayScene gets the file
  data from the zipfile and plays it OK.
* When a levelpack level is solved, the "Next Level" button appears on
  the success modal and hitting Return will advance to the next level in
  the pack. The final level doesn't show this button.
* The user can edit levelpack levels! Clicking the "Edit" button on the
  Play Mode moves the loaded level over to the EditScene and the user
  could save it to disk or edit/playtest it perfectly OK! The link to
  the levelpack is lost upon opening in the editor, so the "Next Level"
  victory button doesn't appear.

678326540b WIP LevelPack UI + Landscape Mode Title Screen
The title screen is now responsive to landscape mode. If the window is
not tall enough to show all the menu buttons (~600px) it will switch to
a horizontal layout with the title on the left and buttons on the right.

WIP "Story Mode" button that brings up a Level Packs selection window.

a75b7208ca Doodad Tool: Levelpacks
Adds `doodad levelpack create` and `doodad levelpack show` commands to
the CLI tool to create levelpacks.

A levelpack is a ZIP file containing a descriptive index.json and
directories for levels and doodads.
2021-12-23 19:15:32 -08:00
ddf0074099 Condensed Palette, Bird AI Update
* The Red Bird now records its original altitude on the level and will
  try and return there should it accidentally climb up or down a wall.
  Sometimes goes into a wavy pattern surrounding its original altitude.
* Editor UI: in the default (vertical) toolbar, the Palette now has a
  two column view to show more color choices on screen at once.
* User setting added: hide the touch control hints.

0ec259b171 Crosshair Option + Doodad Editor crash fix
* The level scroll logic was getting a null pointer crash if you open a
  doodad rather than a level file.
* Add a crosshair option to the level editor, configurable in the Game
  Settings window.

a112c19d76 Few small tweaks 2021-10-09 21:22:50 -07:00
1a8a5eb94b Polish and bugfixes
- Fix a memory sharing bug in the Giant Screenshot feature.
- Main Menu to eagerload chunks in the background to make scrolling less
  jittery. No time for a loadscreen!
- Extra script debugging: names/IDs of doodads are shown when they send
  messages to one another.
- Level Properties: you can edit the Bounded max width/height values for
  the level.

Doodad changes:

- Buttons: fix a timing bug and keep better track of who is stepping on it,
  only popping up when all colliders have left. The effect: they pop up
  immediately (not after 200ms) and are more reliable.
- Keys: zero-qty keys will no longer put themselves into the inventory of
  characters who already have one except for the player character. So
  the Thief will not steal them if she already has the key.

Added to the JavaScript API:

* time.Hour, time.Minute, time.Second, time.Millisecond, time.Microsecond

feea703d0c Update changelog for upcoming 0.9.0 2021-10-07 21:26:39 -07:00
e80a3f0446 Various minor tweaks and changes
* Recolor some of the region doodads
* Add command: `doodad edit-level --remove-actor` to remove actors from
  your level.
* Tweak the player jump velocity from playtesting levels.
2021-10-07 20:50:24 -07:00
d6acee5a66 Adjust Gravity and Prevent Moonwalking
* Tweak max gravity speed to match player max velocity.
* Boy's script watches for his velocity to flip suddenly and stops
  animations, limiting the moonwalking a bit.
* JS API: Self.GetVelocity() added.
2021-10-07 18:49:09 -07:00
fb5a8a1ae8 Async Giant Screenshot, Player Physics and UI Polish
* The "Giant Screenshot" feature takes a very long time, so it is made
  asynchronous. If you try and run a second one while the first is busy,
  you get an error flash. You can continue editing the level, even
  playtest it, or load a different level, and it will continue crunching
  on the Giant Screenshot and flash when it's finished.
* Updated the player physics to use proper Velocity to jump off the
  ground rather than the hacky timer-based fixed speed approach.
* FlashError() function to flash "error level" messages to the screen.
  They appear in orange text instead of the usual blue, and most error
  messages in the game use this now. The dev console "error <msg>"
  command can simulate an error message.
* Flashed message fonts are updated. The blue font now uses softer
  stroke and shadow colors and the same algorithm applies to the orange
  error flashes.

Some other changes to player physics:

* Max velocity, acceleration speed, and gravity have been tweaked.
* Fast turn-around if you are moving right and then need to go left.
  Your velocity resets to zero at the transition so you quickly get
  going the way you want to go.

Some levels that need a bit of love for the new platforming physics:

* Tutorial 3.level

0b0af70a62 Viewport Windows, Quality of Life, Spit and Polish
* New keybind: 'v' to open a new Viewport in the Level Editor.
* New keybind: Backspace to close the topmost UI window,
  and Shift+Backspace to close them all.
* Zoom has graduated out of experimental feature status. Still a bit
  buggy but workable.
* Viewport windows now copy the Tool and BrushSize of the toplevel
  editor, so drawing in and out of viewports works well.
* Viewport window UI improved: buttons to grow or shrink the window
  size, refresh the actors, etc.
2021-10-06 22:22:34 -07:00
a24c94a161 Multitouch Level Panning
Add multi-touch gesture support so that the player can scroll the level
in the editor (and title screen) by treating a two finger swipe to be
equivalent to a middle click drag.

Fun quirks found with SDL2's MultiGestureEvent:

* They don't begin sending us the event until motion is detected after
  two fingers have touched the screen; not the moment the second finger
  touches it.
* It spams us with events when it detects any tiny change and a lot of
  cool details like rotate/pinch deltas, but it never tells us when the
  multitouch STOPS! The game has to block left clicks while multitouch
  happens so the user doesn't draw all over their level, so it needs to
  know when touch has ended.
* The workaround is to track the mouse cursor position at the first
  touch and each delta thereafter; if the deltas stop changing tick to
  tick, unset the "is touching" variable.
2021-10-06 20:02:09 -07:00
cc16a472af "Playtest From Here" Feature
In the level editor, the "Play (P)" button has a new feature: Play
From Here. On mouse down you begin dragging a silhouette of Boy or
whoever the default player character is, as if you were dragging a
doodad onto your level.

Drop the silhouette on your level and enter Play Mode from that
location instead of the Start Flag.

Release your cursor over the Play button or press the "P" key to
spawn at the Start Flag as usual.
2021-10-04 22:02:00 -07:00
c2c91e45a9 Middle-click to Pan + Remember Scroll Position
In the editor, clicking and dragging with the middle mouse button
will scroll the view of the editor in place of the arrow keys.

When entering Play Mode, the original scroll position in the level
editor is remembered for when you come back - no more having to
scroll from 0,0 each time to get back to where you were working!
2021-10-04 20:49:11 -07:00
489a43ea8c Touch Screen Controls for Play Mode!
The game can now be played using only a touch screen! The left
mouse click (Button1) can now move and control the player
character.

* A box in the very middle of the screen is the "Use" button and
  a deadzone for directional inputs.
* Anywhere outside the middle and to the left registers a Left
  button, to the right a Right button, above the top of the middle
  is a Jump button, and below the bottom of the middle is a down
  input (for antigravity mode).
* Tight platforming is possible: above and below the middle box,
  the left/right split is tight in the middle of the window. You
  can get tight jumps if jumping or go below if you don't want to
  jump. The left/right deadzone is only over the space of the Use
  button.

If the player is idle for a while with no controller inputs, some
hints will fade in about the touch controls.

Note: the ScrollboxOffset to track the player character is changed
to 60,60 from 60,100 so the camera will track tighter to the player
and so the player will mostly be over the Use button on touch
controls as long as he's away from a level boundary.
2021-10-04 19:51:31 -07:00
1f83300cec Picture-in-Picture Window (WIP)
In the Level Editor, the "Level->New viewport" menu opens a window with
its own view into your level. You can open as many viewports as you
want.

* Mouse over a viewport and the arrow keys scroll that canvas instead of
  the main editor canvas!
* You can draw inside the viewports! A selectbox to choose the tool to
  draw with. No palette or thickness support yet!
* The actors are installed as-is when the viewport is created and it
  doesn't show any changes to actors after. Make a new viewport for a
  refreshed view.
* Strokes committed inside the viewport show up in the main editor (and
  in other viewports), and vice versa. The viewports accurately track
  changes to the level's colors, just not the actors.
* Fun feature to load a DIFFERENT level inside of the viewport! Editing
  that level doesn't save changes or anything.
2021-10-03 21:18:39 -07:00
4469847c72 Giant Screenshot Feature
In the Level Editor, the "Level->Giant Screenshot" menu will take a full
scale PNG screenshot of the entire level, with its wallpaper and
doodads, and save it in ~/.config/doodle/screenshots.

It is currently CPU intensive and slow. With future work it should be
made asynchronous. The function is abstracted away nicely so that the
doodad CLI tool may support this as well.
2021-10-03 17:21:17 -07:00
55efdd6eb5 Technical Doodad: Checkpoint Region
The Checkpoint Region acts as an invisible checkpoint flag, remembering
the player's location should they need to respawn there.

New cheat: `show all actors` during Play Mode will make every hidden
actor visible. Useful to see your technical doodads during gameplay!

Developer shell: `Execute(command string)` is available to the
JavaScript interpreter. It simulates another command being run on the
developer console.
2021-10-02 21:36:03 -07:00
97e179716c Add Technical Doodads + UI Fixes
New category for the Doodad Dropper: "Technical"

Technical doodads have a dashed outline and label for now, and they
turn invisible on level start, and are for hidden technical effects on
your level.

The doodads include:

* Goal Region: acts like an invisible Exit Flag (128x128), the level is
  won when the player character touches this region.
* Fire Region: acts like a death barrier (128x128), kills the player
  when a generic "You have died!" message.
* Power Source: on level start, acts like a switch and emits a
  power(true) signal to all linked doodads. Link it to your Electric
  Door for it to be open by default in your level!
* Stall Player (250ms): The player is paused for a moment the first time
  it touches this region. Useful to work around timing issues, e.g.
  help prevent the player from winning a race against another character.

There are some UI improvements to the Doodad Dropper window:

* If the first page of doodads is short, extra spacers are added so the
  alignment and size shows correctly.
* Added a 'background pattern' to the window: any unoccupied icon space
  has an inset rectangle slot.
* "Last pages" which are short still render weirdly without reserving
  the correct height in the TabFrame.

Doodad scripting engine updates:

* Self.Hide() and Self.Show() available.
* Subscribe to "broadcast:ready" to know when the level is ready, so you
  can safely Publish messages without deadlocks!

528e7b4807 Prepare release v0.8.1 2021-09-12 16:55:36 -07:00
0a1d86e1f5 Bugfix: Scroll constraint favors top/left edge
For levels having a top/left scroll boundary, the top/left point takes
higher priority for resolving out-of-bounds scroll ranges instead of the
bottom/right.

This fixes a bug where you Zoom Out of a level far enough that the
entire boundaries of a Bounded level are smaller than the viewport into
the level. It could happen if playing normal levels in Play Mode on a
very high-resolution monitor. Previously, the level would anchor to the
bottom/right corner of your screen.

With the Zoom In/Out Feature this broke the ability to scroll well on
the level; so the easy fix is to put the X>0, Y>0 bounds check after the
above, so the level will hug the top/left corner of the screen which
fixes both problems.
2021-09-12 15:59:40 -07:00
21520e71e9 Zoom: Fix scrolling into negative coordinates
* If you open a wide unbounded level like Castle.level and zoom out and
  scroll left (into negative world coordinates), the level chunks
  display correctly now.
2021-09-12 15:47:16 -07:00
fd730483b0 Zoom Improvements
* Doodad outline while dragging is now sized properly for the zoom level
* Make doodad hitboxes for Actor/Link Tool more accurate while zoomed
* Fix chunks low on the level not loading while zoomed in
* Fix Link lines drawn between doodads while zoomed - they point to the
  correct position and their DrawLine calls have been optimized so they
  don't lag out the level when lots of them are drawn at once.

6f5bd910c8 Zoom Progress: Actor/Link Tool Hitboxes
* When the Actor Tool or Link Tool is active, mouse-over hitboxes on the
  level's actors now works correctly while zoomed and scrolling in the
  level.
* Regression: Level chunks don't appear outside a certain range from
  origin while zoomed in.
* Regression: Actors don't draw their sprite while zoomed in, but do
  when zoomed out.
