Juiced combat


Following players feedback, I’ve juiced combat so that it’s clearer what is happening. Attackers now move towards targets and hits are highlighted with red tinting #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday as shown in the gif.

=== demo ===> https://hgames.itch.io/rogue-vs-evil

I’ve also been enhancing performance by avoiding texture swaps, which were happening a lot when there were a lot of enemies, because monsters and floors were in different image files. They are now packed automatically into a gigantic file, hereby avoiding swaps; which I believe could cause some lag in browsers.
I’m now working on finishing another dungeon and will release an update of the demo after that. I will also either add support for skills or for #android, I don’t know what I’ll do first.

Back to indie dev...

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

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!

Connecting levels: adding the world view 🗺️

Pixel Card Wars: new cards: spells and items

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

Pixel Card Wars: How gamedev proceeds (hand design)

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!

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 👋
