Bug Testing & Trader screen

I decided to get some general bug testing done and smarten things up a bit. A lot of current images are just place holders and I can easily update them with better images nearer the end of the semester but I decided to do a few now. I also update the intro screens to explain the game a bit more and I've added an objective.

A lot of the bugs that were in the game before like it scrolling when it shouldn't be, popup boxes not popping up after certain events, money getting added on properly but not showing up etc, these are all fixed now and the game runs a lot smoother.

I'm happy with the progress of the game at the moment, I wasn't sure if I would be able to get the money and time right but it seems to of worked pretty much perfectly. Time seems a bit slow at the beginning but I you have to remember this is for people who haven't played the game before so it helps that its slow. It also seems gets better the more land you have, and theres some skill involved at the end by actually plotting crops of the same type in the same area, so you don't have to go looking round your whole field to see when a crop is ready to be harvested. Live stock also work very good now with the upgrades that you can have. I've also make the upgrades interchangeable so I can add more in the future, which I probably will do.

I've also added in a trader screen which now makes the game work. Before this you could build and buy anything you wanted but this makes it so you level up your farm. You start off with the smaller crops and work your way up, unlocking the bigger and better stuff which in turn bring in more money. I think I might have to up the initial prices though because you can currently buy the best crop very fast and so there is no need to buy anything else.
You can also buy upgrades for the farm here like less tax, more income etc. These really make the game more exciting.

I could do with a way the player loses the game because right now all you can do is win and that doesn't seem very exciting really.

A Big update

I've been working a LOT lately on this game. I spent 17 hours yesterday on it with breaks for eating and pooping only. Today I spent a good 5 hours on it, bringing it into a playable state. At the moment its not very fun as theirs no objectives or functions other then planting crops and harvesting them. I'm hoping by next tuesday to have done the following:

#Completed the achievement system (I broke it last night :( )
#Add in the trader screen and disable crops and livestock at the beginning allowing the player to buy them.
#Add to the trader screen options to buy upgrades for their livestock, allowing livestock to bring in more money ( I had problems with making the livestock income change depending on the quality of the land).
#Add objectives
#Make sure all menu's are working.

Update!

Another small update to show my progress.
