Autoexplore, zoom, & goal-driven AI

Playable at https://rottensoup.herokuapp.com

User Experience

This release includes a few user experience improvements. You can autoexplore with the tab key. You can also zoom in 1.5x in the settings dialogue!

Goal Driven AI

I've also added goal-driven AI framework using an eventing framework. What this means is I can begin to create more advanced enemies and NPC's that are reactive to game events that happen in the environment.

Loot Goblin

As a proof of concept, I've created a loot goblin that explores dungeons looking for chests and gold pieces. It'll steal any and all loot it can find from treasure chests. So if you see a trail of gold and empty chests, there's a good chance a loot goblin is in the dungeon!

You can also now interact with entities (doors, npc's, chests, ladders) with space or e, then pressing the direction you want to interact with.

Prefab Dungeon Rooms

Playable at https://rottensoup.herokuapp.com

This release introduces some bug fixes for the minimal hud introduced before. It also brings PIXI.js upgrades, TILED map editor updates, and most importantly - dungeon prefabs!

The dungeons will be much more immersive and exciting with over 30 hand-crafted new rooms that may appear throughout the dungeon.

Overhauled Minimalist HUD

This release brings a brand new minimal HUD to Rotten Soup. It comes with two new interfaces, the inventory / equipment screen and the spellbook. These can be opened with i or m, Z, s respectively. I'm hoping this new inventory will give folks the ability to play the game completely free of the use of the mouse, but also give the maintain a great user experience with mouse input!

NPC Dialogues & Drunken Dwarf Quest

You can now talk with the drunken dwarf in the Mulberry Town tavern. He'll give you a quest that comes with a reward!
