Views on Difficulty


The new version saw a fairly sharp rise in the game’s difficulty, due to the relative ease with which the player can now die.

What are your views on this difficulty? Is it too hard, or does it compell you as a player to keep trying against difficult enemies until you learn to defeat them?

Are the penalties for dying too great? Currently, the player loses their entire inventory and has no way of retrieving it. This probably is too harsh, so I will change it to one of the following (please let me know which you prefer):

  • The player retains only their equipped item (ie: a sword or axe) and loses the rest of their items.

  • The player drops all their items where they died, and can travel back to their death location to retrieve them.

Thanks for your interest - be sure to check out the new trailer if you haven’t done yet!

Did you know that today is #InternationalJazzDay? 🎷😎

No? 😯 Well, we couldn't pass up this date!

And what better to celebrate this day than #Pecaminosa #OST? 🎷

Let us know what you think about it and have a great weekend!

Here's a peaceful little forest scene for this #screenshotsaturday, from the beginning of the game.

Enemies can also suddenly spawn through Realm Rifts. These Rift Spawns are going to be stronger than the ones wandering around. TBD on the enemies... #screenshotsaturday #godstear #madewithunity

Updated the chest in the maze, adding sound, particles and better animation. But what's in the chest?

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)

Why walk when you can jump?

If you have more of an acquired taste, the restaurants in Niravasi have you covered! Maybe skip the salad bar, though.

Out of boredom and curiosity, I coded Sailor Jupiter's Argentine Backbreaker.

Sometimes Aeron needs a friend to help him out in tight situations.
