This is the fourth devlog for my game Don’t make me run I’m full of chocolate. This log will have details about the UI and polish.

This week, I added a particle system chocolate and a trail to the player.

The chocolate particle system is (supposed to be) played every time the chocolate is collected. It emits a chocolate-coloured burst of particles. At this stage, it seems to play the particles on the spawn of a new chocolate, which I don’t mind. This is a happy accident that helps the player locate the next chocolate.   

I have added a trail to the player. This is just a blue trail that follows the player. This just adds a bit of spice and doesn’t affect gameplay.

Feedback was generally positive. Was pointed out that the chocolate particle system needs some bug fixing.

PS. I added some of the User Interface elements, which can be seen in the GIF. I will talk more about this in the next devlog
