Update - Improve my Game Jam #23


This first version of the game version was submitted to the Cozy Autumn Game Jam 2022, which took place right before the Jam "Improve My Game #23". Since I was not satisfied with the Cozy Autumn version, I decided to cancel the submission and immediately improve some game elements. One bug fix, some Major improvements, and several smaller ones.


Here's the list of the elements that were modified :

Major changes
- Bug fix - Fixed a bug where the game could get stuck on loading screen.
- Gameplay - Added an interactive introduction sequence, with tutorial content.
- Gameplay - Replaced timer by AI visuals, with the opponent's hand moving above books, to increase the feeling to play against someone.

Minor changes
- Title Screen - Added an outline to the game logo.
- Title Screen - Helped the Bookmaster, and sorted some books.
- Title Screen - The Bookmaster is now moving and inspecting books, while waiting for the player.
- Title Screen - Added info about Controls (Touch / Mouse), given by the Bookmaster himself.
- Title Screen - Added info about how to Start the Game, from the door itself.
- General - Added a custom mouse cursor, with some custom effects.
- HUD - Replaced static characters portraits by animated characters portraits.

Known Limitations & Issues
- Introduction - During the introduction, there's  a timeframe where spamming input might lead to sequences being played inconsistently.
- Mouse Cursor - The cursor displayed behind UI elements, such as dialogue texts.
- Many small shortcuts, still a jam version.
