UPDATE

Hello everyone! We're very sorry for the lack of updates again, but it has been due to an attack by a malicious hacker. (continued below)


Fortunately, no important assets for the game have been lost or compromised, but it resulted in me being set back quite a bit, as I was forced to do a factory reset of my laptop and then spend a few days recovering and reinstalling everything.

It was quite a frustrating week. In short, the hacker gained access to my discord and social media, and proceeded to use that as a way to extort money from me. When he realized he isn't going to get what he wants, he deleted all of the servers I have owned, on top of making me leave all the other servers I was in and unadding all my friends. Thankfully, I have dealt with everything I could and at this point I've recovered anything lost, other than my old account - not like there was anything left to salvage on it anyway though.

The good news is, while I was dealing with this, no one else on the team has been compromised thankfully - meaning they were still able to make progress on their end, and currently, I'm back to making it as well. We should return to more regularly posted updates soon!

Remember when the earlier Mario & Luigi games let you perform certain Bros. Moves infinitely? We do! Here's a look at one of the first Duo Attacks you get, which, once upgraded, lets you perform it forever, until you mistime the input!

[Sound on!]

We spent some time polishing up attack animations, making the characters shake to give a better visual cue for when their buttons are meant to be pressed, and making the animations more dynamic overall. And now, it's time for enemy turns!

I'm excited to announce that the steam page for our Mario & Luigi-like Indie Game is finally up! If you have a steam account, please wishlist it, it'll help us a ton!

If you'd like to escape from battle, after choosing the "flee" command, you'll have to withstand one enemy turn before you can escape. If you're a higher level than your foes though, you'll flee without issue!

Introducing: the switch-up mechanic! During the enemy turn, you have two counters to choose from: jump, and hammer! The former is easier to time right, but the latter deals more damage, allowing for some risk and reward. #marioandluigi #screenshotsaturday

In Mario and Luigi games, if a bro gets KO'd, you have to carry him while dodging attacks, which wasn't very fun - so we decided to scrap it. Instead, Tara or Vyn will just drag the other off-screen.

Also showing off the graphical overhaul for the sewers!

This one's a pretty big update for any Mario and Luigi enjoyers - a certain familiar attack is finally fully implemented, with all five ratings! From missing the command, to timing it perfectly, with different effects to accompany both!!

Hammers are implemented too! Well, one hammer, one baseball bat...
