Worked on the inventory interface today. Most of these items the character can collect but doesn't use. Instead the player can either sell them for gold or gift them for greater friendship with NPCs. The coin bag up top will indicate how much gold the player can have.

Today, I added the logic behind leveling up your library building for the first 4 levels.
For every patron you help and mess you clean, your library earns more cash. You can use this cash to buy more books, afford library assistants, or build a bigger library.
Today, I added our first community-inspired NPC: Catherine.
She is a housewife who can most often be seen watering her garden. Being a good southern woman, her catchphrase is "Bless your heart." Her favorite genre is historical fiction and her favorite book is The Winter Sea.
Cat-alog Chronicles, a cozy game devlog:
You're a cat librarian and aspiring novelist. Help patrons find books, clean up messes, add to library inventory, buy bigger buildings for your bigger library, and make time to write your novel in this cute and cozy mobile game.
Worked on the main menu screen today. The moon diety is my favorite part (shoutout to @finalbossblues)
I didn't have enough time to add the center menu or to pick the font I wanted.
But I feel sick and miserable, so my day was cut short.
I'll prolly finish this on Monday.
Created this simple start screen for when the game first loads. When I have more money to invest in this thing, I'll give it a makeover, but this'll do for now.
