Days 1 and 2


I’ve made lots of progress the first couple of days - hopefully a playable demo soon. I’m sure everyone will notice the very obvious Magic-inspired gameplay.

Day 1

I managed to mock up most of the ui interactions and created some basic cards. Right now there are five mana types - mice, fish, and birds for the cats and graves and brains for the zombies.

Day 2

Mostly refactoring - I hastily hacked together things from yesterday. Seriously. Like, almost everything was stuffed into one coffeescript file. So today, I split everything out into related groups, so not quite one file per class, but related things are together. A much more manageable situation. Thanks to hastily stuffing everything into one file, I also coded everything in a very procedural way, so there was quite a bit of refactoring to move to a more object-oriented design. Oh, and the AI now (dumbly) plays cards.

Goals for Day 3:

  • UI interactions for ‘attack’ and ‘defend’

  • Hitpoint indicator

  • Combat logic

And I’ll leave you with this screenshot:

Path of Kami: The Evolution of the Lore

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)

One of the most critical update for Sunblaze demo. Now you are able to pet a cat! Finally!

Microsoft Windows XP Unprofessional (windows logo prototype)

Made my first ever animation.

I mostly build 3D First Person Shooter game mechanics in Unity, and in this I'm just showing C4 mechanics I made for a little side project I am working on! :)

What Are You Doing In My Swamp!?

Now spruce forest monsters can vomit forest shields, but Brutal Castle will not stop!
