How we made our combat more juicy 
During playtesting sessions we realized that our combat system didn't feel as engaging as it should.
Read about the steps we took to make it feel more impactful 
Dark Queen is set in early 15th century Croatia. Players take on a role of the Crusader on a quest to rescue his beloved from the Dark Queen’s castle.
Inspired by Croatian literature and Slavic folklore, specifically the August Šenoa's The Snake Queen.
The Art Behind Dark Queen
...is rooted in iconic animations, and timeless pieces of art that evoke strong atmospheres and unforgettable visuals.
In this post we’ll take a look into some of the biggest inspirations that are shaping the world of Dark Queen.
We showcased our game at 2 gaming events (even Deadpool played it).
People managed to tear it apart but that's just what we needed. 
Coming up soon: playtesting with our Discord community (https://discord.gg/RVZ2FZmabT)
Reap is released! Try it out and let me know what you think! :D
For combat mechanics, we are mostly taking inspiration from God of War and Prince of Persia The Lost Crown.
What do you think?
Grim Reaper looked a bit weired when walking and seemed floaty when jumping so I decided that it's time to change his animations #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame #pixelart
