Hello! It's Holographicquad (the dynamic game development Duo).
We are currently working on a Fairy game called Sprite's Honor and....
It's time for the 4th Devlog! 'Seedling Houses'

Art👩🎨
Really teeny art section this week! My only contribution was the art for the birdhouse-inspired seedling houses, which are both practical (protecting your seedlings) and decorative (looking pretty). Lots of customization options has always been a feature we've wanted to include in Sprite's Honor, so I created several styles and colors to personalize the island.
That's all for now!
Programming 👩💻
Here is my recap on coding the seedling homes!
The seedling houses are a simple node consisting of a collision shape and an area node that detects if the house is on the ground or in the air. This is so the player is only allowed to place the house up in the trees, if the area detects ground it won't allow the player to place it.
Next I wanted to create a rope that reacted to movement and was physics based. I realized that someone had already made a 2d physics based rope addon which was super helpful. There was only a little tweaking to get the addon to work with my node!
The last thing I did was allow the seedlings to be put inside and taken out. The player clicks on the seedling then the house and the house adds that seedling node to an array and the seedling node is paused and hidden.
