Special thanks to XICX for all his testing and support.


This build focused on annoying bugs and improving quality of life. Before making new features we focus on killing as many new bugs as possible or already existing bugs. We want to do this to improve the quality and improve player experience.

Special thanks to XICX for all his testing and support.

- When you die and choose new game you aren't frozen anymore.

- You can now properly load the game from a save file.

- The camera now properly goes to the correct room when loading a save file.

- Fixed a couple broken physics colliders in the save room corner, so no more falling into darkness.

- When picking up a new item the item box is in the top center of the screen. The box that tells the name of the items you picked up.

- Fixed the start screen text from overlapping the load box.

- Fix some issues you player goes through stairs and gets stuck.

For this one if you find any stairs you get stuck in please comment here and report it so I can fix it and maybe rewrite the physics formula to detect stairs.

Next up

For today's new art we got ourselves the low level boss door. It will end up animated with green fire in the eyes.

We got our new throne for the save rooms in the works. Hope you guys enjoy sitting on your new demonic throne every time you need to save. We are making animations for the character sitting on the throne soon. Hope you guys enjoy the upcoming update.

Started on the interior for the tavern. The tavern will be where you get quests and can gather information from NPC you made friends of. The tavern NPCs are just stock placeholder art for now and will be replaced later with more custom art.

Here are some more NPC art. Next week we will have the character art for the town people started. One of these animations is just for small detail when entering the library randomly. Would be boring if every character only had one type of idle animation.

While working on the first full Alpha build, I decided to start adding a little bit of NPC dialogue and other stuff to start making the game feel somewhat alive during the early alpha stages.

Work in progress knight attack. We are aiming to get out first three monsters made so you got a variety of monster to fight in the demo.

Started making a mini diagram to show each region and the connections between them. This way people will have a semi direction hint before the map system update comes out. There are more regions not shown. Note this doesn't include the fast travel system.

We wanted some of the walls in our game to be broken and crumbled. Not all of them being the same look so we also made tiles for broken walls where we can mix and match the tiles to make an unlimited amount of designs.

Got volumetric lighting working with my custom shaders. Will need to tweak some settings and working on the castle environment lighting now. Pictures are with and without the lighting enabled for the player and throne.

Just a little teaser of wip art for the upcoming library area. Going to have a new background made so the contrast looks better, but for now I am enjoying it. Do note will be uploading a gif within next couple days so you can see the animated objects.
