We're finally back in action! And with a new bit of progress: enemies can now be hit on the overworld, and the battle transitions have a little jingle leading into the battle theme!

2022 vs Now: #Varminal #indie #indiedev #marioandluigi #devlog #showcase

With the overworld's base mechanics close to being fully implemented, we're going back and finally progressing the battle system again! Here's a look at some new animations, new UI, and new.. well, everything! (BG is a placeholder though) [🔊Sound on!]

Happy Devruary! Devruary Day 16 celebrates @balladrion ! He's the developer behind Balladrion, a 3D rogue-lite action RPG set in a magical fantasy world. We also have a question for the devs of Game Jolt: What feature almost broke your game?

Another bit of progress, getting poisoned and all animations accompanying that are implemented again. As well as different portraits and health icons to match! Little touches we hope will give more charm to the UI.

Another part of the battle system is finished - finally, all the death & revive animations are completed! This time, instead of a generic crystal, a special rejuvenating balm is the item needed to wake your friend back up.

With a new art style and a more skilled team, we were finally able to finally make the menus according to the first concept behind them - now Plink displays every option, not just the move icons! A diegetic touch to tie UI and the game world a little.

Happy Devruary! Devruary Day 15 celebrates @ambercrowngames ! They're the game devs behind the puzzle-platformer game One More Experiment. We also have a question for the devs of Game Jolt: What’s the biggest dev mistake you’ve made?

Goouls are back! Complete with new sprites and slightly better attack tells! (missing a few sfx but we're working on it!) As well as a much nicer test background courtesy of Gardy! We keep getting closer to re-implementing everything the old demo had!
