I chose to make a cute potions room because I haven’t done fantasy before. In my “magical room” I have a few main areas they are the “bookshelves” the “cauldron” and the “window”. But there is an open area in the top of the room that can be explored but only with the broom. The bookshelf has 3 levels and each row is focused on a different type of potion ingredient. You have to search through the shelves by going into door portals to get to different levels.

For my animations the top left is the little mage getting pulled away by the broom as she grabs it, the top right is her pouring a potion into the giant cauldron and the bottom animation is her teleporting between each floor of the bookshelf. I’m very excited about my room but what excites me the most are the floor tiles and the teleporting doors. I want the floor tiles to unlock a secret. But while I am most excited about those aspects I feel like the teleporting from floor to floor might be extremely difficult to do because hotspots in AGS can be a little fickle so I’m just concerned about the room not being interact-able because of my coding and hotspot inaccuracies. And lastly I feel like I should be careful with designing my background and remember that there needs to be sprites made for certain objects because I sometimes include objects into the background when it shouldn’t be part of it.
