Day 87: 2025/11/28 - 6h

My recording cropped fullscreen wrong, but I improved screen scaling & removed Pixel Perfect setting. For now I'll call the Settings section complete & move on to the last Journal section planned for the demo: Progress Log!

Day 88: 2025/12/01 - 5.5h

Started on the Progress Log section, where the player can save, load & erase game data and quit to the menu. I've got the basic layout & navigation mostly working so far.

Day 89: 2025/12/02 - 7.5h

Improved mouse navigation of save slots & added content to them based on the save data system I'm working on. Saving that content to a slot sort of works (with bugs to troubleshoot) but doesn't save an actual file yet.

I'm glad you have "erase" in a separate section and not something that can be done via an accidental button press :s

Outta curiosity, why'd you remove Pixel Perfect?

It's just enabled by default with what I've implemented so far. Might add it back when I revisit more flexible resolution/camera stuff!
