• The desolate child now begs for a small amount of money
• If given money, she will run to the arcade and audibly deposit a coin
• She will play until she runs out of money (stored in a variable), at which time she returns to her usual movement route

Plans

• Desolate child ups the high score on the machine (run a timer for x seconds per life, the sum of that which = Desolate Child's hi-score) IMPLEMENTED
• Maybe she brags about her score or refers to it in some way
• Desolate Child/Susie has a high score goal in mind
• Effects for the ominous messages returned from giving or denying the child money. (flipped switch, +/- to hidden statistic, etc.)

I have  no idea why I created this character, aside from thinking it was funny to have someone with huge misfortunes and the combined naivety/positivity to never be angry or upset about their situation. Making that character a child just amplifies it.

If you feel any emotion at all for this 12 frame sprite then mission accomplished I guess! Even if it is leveraging pretty hard.

ALSO

• Added a bunch of tileset as sprites,  (vending machine, desk with computer and desk bell, more)
• Drew a square commercial gumball machine using MalibuDarby's popcorn machine as a base, and a small table from the hospital set for legs
• How does Desolate Child know P1s name?

BUGFIXES

• Fixed pathing with the motel owner
• Motel office and basement are now on the same map for pathing convenience
• Added a delay between the game over sound and the next coin deposit after reviewing the attached video 
• Fixed some trigger issues with the microwave
