So, do you guys think we maybe have improved the art a bit lately...?
With the overworld's base mechanics close to being fully implemented, we're going back and finally progressing the battle system again! Here's a look at some new animations, new UI, and new.. well, everything! (BG is a placeholder though) [🔊Sound on!]
More overworld progress! Finally, one of the enemies is in, and able to notice and chase you! They're not yet interact-able, but that won't be for long.

Items are usable yet again! Complete with a new, more expressive and fluid animation. We're getting closer and closer to getting back where we were with the old battle system... but now with so much more style and charm! #Varminal #Indiegame #Indiedev
Goouls are back! Complete with new sprites and slightly better attack tells! (missing a few sfx but we're working on it!) As well as a much nicer test background courtesy of Gardy! We keep getting closer to re-implementing everything the old demo had!
Another move has been fully implemented! As we've said earlier, as the replacement for Mario & Luigi's bros. moves, Plink will transform into tools for our heroes to use on the overworld. Here's the first one you'll receive in this game - the Plinkoline!
As our way of adapting Mario & Luigi's field actions, Plink the robot will transform into different tools for Tara & Vyn to use! Furthermore, replacing the Mini Mario ability, you can also control Plink on his own! His segments will have unique obstacles.
With a new art style and a more skilled team, we were finally able to finally make the menus according to the first concept behind them - now Plink displays every option, not just the move icons! A diegetic touch to tie UI and the game world a little.
Mini Mario's 2D sections will also be returning (as they were imo some of the most memorable segments in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga) in expanded 2D platforming sections, that'll also be more challenging to make use of Plink's new platforming abilities!
