v0.0.5

Full Changelog: micutio/hello-world-rs@v0.0.4...v0.0.5

New Features

Entities

• RNA viruses
• plasmids

Gameplay

• Tooltips
• genome manipulation
• inventory system
• cellular automaton generated world that keeps changing throughout the game via dying and regenerating cells
• circular world

Bug Fixes

• too many to list

Performance Improvements

10x to 13x faster rendering

Alpha 0.0.4 - Engine and UI Overhaul

Additions

• full mouse support
• tooltips on hover
• added inventory section to side panel
• dna wrapping around top, right and bottom of the side panel
• mini-framework for mouse supported hud elements, menus and info boxes

Changes

• underlying engine moved from tcod to bracket-lib
• bottom panel has been turned into a side panel
• input processing and rendering code has been substantially overhauled
• improved and extended color palette

Removed

• tcod dependencies

Fixes

• failing attack actions don't crash the game anymore

Known issues

• Attacking actions are in the game but don't do anything yet

Alpha 0.0.3 - DNA refinement

Additions

• new traits: enzyme (energy-recover per turn), energy-store (bonus to max energy capacity)
• right side bar for better DNA visualisation
• random mutations, every object now has an attribute stability indicating the per-turn chance of mutation occurring in its DNA

Changes

• changed previous DNA bars in bottom panel to hp and energy display
• slight adjustments to walkable terrain color and icons to blend better when outside FOV

Removed

Fixes

• 100% CPU use from too frequent input queries

Known issues

• Attacking actions are in the game but don't do anything yet

Alpha 0.0.2 - Genetics rework

Additions

• The game loop has now limited the user input queries to 60fps to avoid too frequent queries that eat CPU cycles for breakfast.
• A random AI that will select a random (but valid!) action with a random (but valid!) target at each turn.
• For developmers: unit tests for genetics and random AI.

Changes

• The action and genetics modules are reworked and tightly integrated.
• Using and extending both has been made much easier and intuitive.
• Monster generation organisation has been tightened up
• Various parts of the software architecture have been refactored and cleaned up to be easier to read.

Removed

• A whole layer of indirection for mapping genetic traits to actions and attributes has been removed

Fixes

• Plenty of bugs in genetics, DNA encoding and decoding

Known issues

• Attacking actions are in the game but don't do anything yet
