Sorcerers and witches are known for having owls or ravens.
So, does that mean a game developer working on a game about magic is required to own a corvid? 😅

Hehe, cool 😊

Are those slugs? They're super cute 😁

Well, it almost drove me insane, but the scene transitions looks much better now
Almost bug-free 😓

Well then, the imps have received their first attack
It feels fun, I suppose, and looks not bad either

Let's add a pinch of magic 😅

Still don't think that many enemies will be active at the same time 😁

I just realized that I've always testing performance only in "balanced" power mode. So I check how it would with "power efficiency" mode.

Well, about 20 corpses run at a normal FPS, but 30 — and the engine goes crazy

Adding some vfx to the strikes
Looks better

Birds of a feather 😅

Don't worry about them
Soon they'll gain their attacks and become damn annoying opponents 😈

Upgrading pogo-attack for indie game
Now with music 😅

Agreed, I also focus more on game feel
Sometimes there's a lot of tweaking involved to make it feel right 😊

Yes, platform is animated body, but default physics feels strange for me

The default interaction logic between CharacterBody2D and moving platforms in Godot 4 is weird 🥴

Well, a bit of optimization - and now 50 angry restless corpses can walk, seek, chase down and attack target
Even kick up dust particles

But when there are 80 of them, the engine starts crazy glitching

Though, I doubt even 50 will ever be in same place at once

I've been thinking for a while about how to make the pogo attack more visually interesting. I didn't really like how it looked.
Well, I think now it looks better

Howdy #gamedevs, posting a WIP for a scene in #nekrolith, this will be the Heretic's bastille 😁, will soon start posting details on how I develop the #conceptart and #environmentart for the game. #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #indiedev

Thanks!

For real 😄

Haha, I feel your pain
I'm both the developer and the artist for my project, and the thought of having to do the sound as well fills me with primal dread 😅

Don't overwork yourself, or you'll burn out 😅

Amazing crows!

How was your weekend?😜
Our weekend was spent with crows. We dedicated the entire day to choosing the right crow that would only appear for about five minutes of gameplay.🤣

Nonstandard room sizes are so tough! I'm keepin it though!

Looks great!

You just traumatized a Boss by having an opinion. 💀
In Loo Witch, the "Greater Good" is a very scary place.
