BattleJuice Alchemist

I love to build things in games (one of my favorite games of all times is Besiege btw.). That's why it is amazing for me to finally integrate base building in my own game. Check out the devlog article below.


Hey folks,

this week came with quite a surprise: BattleJuice Alchemist was (and still is) featured by Epic Games as the top Weekly Spotlight project. This means everybody who launched Unreal Engine this week through the Epic Launcher was greeted by one of our screenshots, which I think is very cool!

But let's get to what I worked on in the game. I already showed you a little teaser of our new base building mechanic in the past. The foundations of the system are now in place and you can design your own structures.

What you see here is just a quick foundation, but your tower can eventually be multiple stories high. I'll show you more in the future when there are new building elements to utilize. And to remind you: The unique thing in our game is that the alchemy tower you construct will aid you in battle and you are able to summon it to any open patch of land:

I have to head out for today, but before I forget: a warm welcome to the people who joined our Discord after seeing us at the Epic Spotlight!

Have great weekend everybody!

Alain

While waiting for Act 2 translations, letā€™s talk about how we actually craft those dialogs: itā€™s a collaborative effort with some Arcweave magic to bring the story to life in our "monolog-style dialogs." Check out the devlog below:
