User login and session up!
Yea so I just finished the backend API system that handles login authentication and sessions. Now you can register your account via the website or from inside the game.. then login and start a session. The session is to keep you logged in while playing so you dont have to re-login everytime you have a server interaction such as cloud saves and marketplace interactions and global achievements etc.

Sun and Moons and Day/Night Cycle!
Buildaria now has a realtime Sun, Moon, and a second Moon(Blood Moon). they traverse the sky with the speed of their actual cycle. The full day/night cycle is 24 minutes(i chose this for easy conversion in my head 1 minute = 1 hour). The sun takes 14 minutes to cross the sky. Then the standard Moon takes 8 minutes and then the second moon, Blood Moon, takes 2 minutes. The Blood Moon starts at witching hour so be careful.. things change :)

Mining! The world is your playground!
It may not look like much but we can now mine blocks out of the world! Because its a 2d game and not as user friendly as 3d where you would just walk over an item and grab it or point and click.. we have limited space so instead of loot from mining laying there.. it will actually go directly into your inventory. Anyway, mining works.. the world is your playground!

Pointer selector..
No big deal but now the block your mouse is over is highlighted so you dont accidentally break or place the wrong spot.. will be likely changing to an outline or translucent mask eventually.

BIG UPDATE - WORLD GEN!
Ok this one took a minute but we now have the procedural world generator working! what that means is the worlds are made based on "seeds" like some other "craft" games you may know of(where its the same world everytime when you use the same seed).. however, our seed system is unique in the way that you can use words and sentences instead of just numbers.. you can also use just numbers if you want but hey we cant fix your boringness lol(yes we like using made up words sometimes, get used to it;) <- and this isnt just a smiley.. its a dual purpose smiley and end parenthesis, yw. Anyway, the world gen is a little basic for now its just creating a random terrain and rolling hills and valleys that has grass on top(that you can walk thru), then a couple layers of dirt, then stone to the bottom of the world.. eventually it will be way better but this is a start and im pretty proud of it!

UI / HUD / GUI in game
What game doesnt have a user interface? Yea i dont know of one either.. anyhow now Buildaria does! we have text coords.. a health bar.. an inventory box, a toolbar, and a msg window for chat and system msgs. Pretty basic for now.. not sure the direction im going to go with it yet but its there! and that little blue square is a fake inventory item placeholder for testing.. i can grab it and drag it into other slots, wow!
