Improved combat system + info on DEMO (read article)

#retro #rpg #adventure #action #chaos #pixelart #outfordelivery


Combat

  • I slightly reworked the combat system to handle dynamic attack types

  • To put simply: it is incredibly simple to implent unique types of attacks (call minions, status effects, triple backflips etc)

Demo

Up until this point, I have yet to mention an actual release schedule. Originally I planned to release Act 1 all at once; but with the Delivertaur bossfight (pictured above) I found myself at a unique endpoint. To put simply, all the story up until the first intermission

The current game has most of the important elements implemented and contains enough content for a proof-of-concept demo. Including

  • Character Customisation

  • Box Puzzles

  • Battles

  • A fair few unique characters

  • An overworld to explore

To make abundently clear, this means development will not focus on advancing the story but going back and tidying up what exists. This should create a better balance and ensure the full act would release in a better state after the demo.

However I will not yet place a release date out into the cosmic soup. Or to put slighlty less poetically, the game is functional on a base level, but still requires polish and a few necessary components (i.e a way to earn money).

I believe there still is somewhat of a way to go but I will keep you updated!

I may also need to add a sequence break for the adsurdist moment featured in the page description
