Dev Log 4: Progress at last

Bit late...

So yeah, the holidays happened and definitely threw things off for me a bit there, sorry about that!

The good news is, I've made a lot of under the hood changes to the game that will help with development long term! I'll give you a list of stuff

-The player is now state driven! This make changing and adding things to the player controller MUCH easier, especially when it comes to debugging. This required a lot more reworking of things then I expected, but that's normally how these things go.

-The levels now "reset" instead of just reloading. This took a lot of work to do, but it allows for a lot more flexibility when the player dies and helps with tracking the players progress through the dialogue sections.

-A few other little things like having enemies that chase the player instead of just move back and forth.

-I finalized the art details for the first level and got the rest of the tile sets from my artist! Got a CRT filter setup and added some Cinema bars to give it that classic NES vibe. I also cleaned up the health bar and centered it to keep the players eyes from having to move around during game play as much!
