Mini Progress Update: Battle system reworking


Currently shifting focus towards the Battle system in preparation for the addition of some truly intimidating endgame content. Big goals for this end of things is to:

  1. Make enemy attacks more consistent. (Pretty sure some of them feel like they're trying to beat the player to death with a wet noodle.)

  2. Make player attacks even more consistent than they already are. (Feel free to let me know if any skills aren't working properly in the current build!)

  3. Make sure the leveling system works/ is balanced properly

  4. Make sure the Challengers spawn properly

Might be more, but that's the big set I'm aiming to fix in this phase of development.

Oh, and as one final tweak in this section, I've made some adjustments to the Player Select screen so that it only features "complete" characters. Here's a sneak peek of the changes!

I might be having too much fun with this process...

Still deciding if it's worth committing to a full rebuild, but I at least figured out a better way to handle the party swapping mechanic.

This whole "making a new battle frame" situation does give me an excuse to add some things I had been putting off for far too long.

Got a (mostly stable) demo ready for the occasion!

Still have to address a few tweaks to layering and test some other sidequests, but I think that we're back on track again.

I know it's completely unintentional, but I swear this is the universe trying to convince me to dig my old handiwork out of retirement and do something with him.

Pretty safe to say that Possy will be increasing the price of costumes to compensate for this recent development.

Turns out what the game actually needed was for me to take a proper break from development and enough time to realize what I had broken.

(It was the values tied to IDing what foe it'd be.)

It'll likely need more testing, but we're back in buisiness!

While I chip away at the code for XL, I might as well show off the fruits of another thing I had tinkered with: modding custom music into Bionicle Heroes.
