Added a new animated spell


I’m done implementing the three spells I wanted for a new monster: the kobold wizard, that you will meet in its very own private office. The three spells are:

  • firebolt

  • teleportation

  • slowness

I wrote new animations for the first two. I’m always very happy after doing animations, because I almost feel like a real game developer; doing actual graphical stuff ^^ There’s still a bit of flickering for firebolt which I’ll fix soon, but I wanted to share it with you before going away for the weekend.

Hope you’ll enjoy! Here’s the vid:

I’m still wondering as to whether I’ll had wands in the next release. I’ve ruled out spells (that would be boosted by runics), because it would take me too long but I’m still considering wands (whose effect wouldn’t change with boosts, only the number of charges would, as in brogue). And I already have some animations available. I’ll see! Best to all of you ❤

Back to indie dev...

My in-development cards game now has its own webpage on itch: https://hgames.itch.io/pixel-card-wars I think I'll ultimately post it on GameJolt, but devlog will only be on itch. Please follow it here!

I have created a page dedicated to Pixel Card Wars on GJ: https://gamejolt.com/games/pixel-card-wars/699977 I will continue documenting Pixel Card Wars development here! See you 👋

Creating the game's page on GJ, new team: Evil

I'm adding skills as reward for beating dungeons #roguelike #indiedev #gamedev#screenshotsaturday #codesource. That’s part of the progression of the player, together with better items. There's a lot of them but it's quite easy to implement.

Not a mockup

During the last week, I've added traps. They can either be initially visible (early levels) or be noticed randomly when you walk by (later levels). Hope you'll like them!
