Wizard Game Progress

Hey there, it’s Jack here with the ninth update to the Wizard Tower Game. On this week, I decided to build out an inventory so that I could eventually link it with the items on the ground that the player picks up. Each black square represents an item, and the number on those squares represents…

Hey, it’s Jack here with the eighth update to the Wizard Tower Game. For this week I focused more on the inventory system that I plan to implement in the game. The reason for this is because I want the player to be able select from a spell on a toolbar and then launch that…
