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.

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

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!

Happy #WIPWednesday! Are you working on a game? Making some art? Practicing a song? Something else? Tell us in the comments!

Items are usable yet again! Complete with a new, more expressive and fluid animation. We're getting closer and closer to getting back where we were with the old battle system... but now with so much more style and charm! #Varminal #Indiegame #Indiedev

Which of these is your favorite animation?

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.

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!]

Tara's Jump counterattack has been re-implemented as well, now with completely new animations! In the old beta, we just reused the overworld jump sprites, but I wanted to go the extra mile, and I think it looks way more satisfying this way!
