Blox's RPG

I'm putting any plans of the second world on hold until I have the first world, which should be a nice base. Also came up with basic combat that the fancy mechanics I mentioned go on top of. Progress is slow from procrastination. Etc. You get the gist.


You (and your ally) have access to basic attacks, which are free and simple, Strike moves and Support moves, which cost Strike/Support Points (SP) and is where most of the combat revolves around.

You also get a choice between a Strike move focused character or a Support move focused character. Support ones have a stronger basic attack, but are more focused on supporting moves overall. Strike ones have all-out offenses to punch whatever you face right where the sun don't shine (that being their faces due to the positioning of the light) but do less well when the other person breaks a rib or something.

Don't feel too stressed about the choice, though: it's not a complete lockout. Both roles get basic moves from the other's role. And besides, your ally gets the role you didn't pick, so you basically get to take both of them anyways! Everything's fine.

Some world mechanics have Strike and Support moves associated with them. Maybe perform the right actions to heal extra, or use a Joint Strike Attack. Maybe a Support move might lower a stress meter ripped straight out of Darkest Dungeon, who knows? The possibilities are limitless!*

*Disclaimer: possibilities are most likely, in fact, very limited, and should not be referred to as "limitless." Our legal team is, as of now, searching for the employee who made this outrageous claim and striking their name from all BloxCo™ records, as well as removing all other evidence of their existence. JUST TRY AND STOP ME, YOU UPTIGHT SUITS! YOU'LL NEVER FIGURE OUT WHERE I AM! ESPECIALLY GIVEN THAT I DON'T HAVE A CLUE EITHER! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Next up

A long while back I saw many posts about new developers putting too many eggs in one basket and realised that's what I was doing and started making a spinoff so I was focused on something smaller. I think I'll give it a separate page.

EXCLUSIVE promotional art and release date! Get it hot off the press today!

progress wow

(yeah I procrastinated again)

I call 'em Prucie and Lydena. (Prucie's the one with the knife, it's short for Pruscilla.)

One's active to a fault, the other's far more nervous and reserved. They're also really close friends.

well this is far better than before

just a hunch but I think I might have problems focusing

At this point I could very well abandon this thing entirely, almost no one knows it exists, I'm the only one working on it and it's barely even a walking simulator.

Regardless, here's something so I can say I've made something recently.

So.

Thinking about redoing some of the main characters.

My order of priority is the female player > Bliss > the male player. (My guy's fine just the way he is)

They all have names now, by the way.

Left to right on the thumbnail:

Bliss, Blox, Jacob, Emily.

The thumbnail and header have been updated. I've also added the character portraits to the media section of the page.

Finally, something playable(?)
