Polishing combat with directional hit reactions for more weight and variety. Finishers tuned for smooth, synced choreography.

And yes, enemies always drop loot. The Fallen even loses his helmet 😄

In Lobo The Howl Within the end is always clear, but the path is an adventure full of combat, choices, and mystery.

One of the hardest parts of game design is teaching players. In Lobo, I chose to break immersion a bit for clear, fast tutorials, no long hand-holding, just quick lessons that get you into action fast. Which do you prefer: immersion or quick guidance?

UI, Communication And Usability This week, I have been working on the main user interface (UI) for Crumbling World. UI is an essential part of any game, as it is one of the main tools that we as game designers use to communicate with our players directly.

For Lobo, I wanted simple settings. No ray tracing or upscalers so it runs on any PC. Inspired by The Last of Us Part II, I added my own touch.

Essentials: resolution, volume, rebind keys, camera, and language.

What settings matter most to you?

I made an Ogre as a custom MetaHuman, but in the Zelda: Breath of the Wild style. Made with Polyhammer, Blender, Substance Painter, and Unreal Engine 5.

In Lobo, gear can break, but it’s not a punishment. It’s part of the world’s economy — repairing costs coin and pushes you to explore for resources and treasures. You’ll also meet the twin blacksmith brothers… from different fathers. Don’t ask.

Hi everyone! This is a small patch that fixes a bug in the Unique Enemies spawner. Thanks so much for keep reporting bugs and issues. I appreciate it very much!

Jump And Grab Edge System Since the last update, I have been working on the Jump and Grab Edge System for Crumbling World. I decided to rework these movement mechanics, as I thought it would be great to add a bit more complexity to each of the levels.

Quick peek showcasing one of the environments in Lobo.

We are not alone in the fog, and they definitely don’t come alone.

Combat design, environment design, and sound design are still in progress.
