Hi, would anyone be able to help me? I never made any game so I have literally no idea what I am doing. I would like to make super simple doll dress up game. I understand the artsy part. I have to make the base sprite with some clothes assets etc. But what do i do with those? I would like few buttons that when clicked will change the clothes. Something like the photo included. (I am making a game that consists out of 4 mini games. So far I have made the start screen, where you can pick one of these 4 minigames to play. So I have cursor, some dialogue and buttons that switch into different scenes. Now I want to work on this dress up mini game)

Each clothing item would be a scene object. When you select a clothing item it would delete the current clothing item object and add the selected clothing item in its place.
Hi valerhimiko and welcome. Your project sounds really fun.
There’s a few ways to do it. As stated above, you can have a different object for each item of clothing.
But another way is to have only a few objects, like one object for tops, one object for bottoms, one object for hats etc. And within each of those objects, you would have different animations. It would be your choice to have each option as a new animation or as different frames of one animation.
From what I understand, each time a user clicks on the top icon, the model’s top will change. So you could have when top button clicked, change top animation number to add 1. But then there would be a problem when you got to the last animation. I guess if there were 7 top animations, you could have a condition that if animation number is 7, then when top button is clicked, change the animation number to 0. But someone else might have a nicer way.
As for positioning, one way would be to just place each object on the right area of the doll. You could hide the animation for clothing until the button for that clothing is pressed. Also, you can change the origin point of each animation or frame individually. For example for the tops, you could choose the neck area. The events could have the clothing position always matched to a neck point on the doll. But I haven’t really thought about it as I’m not sure exactly how you’re doing things.
Good luck with it and see how you go and ask more questions if you need to.
