implemented some basic projectile functionality! still need to work on VFX visibility/camera angles, but should be handy for adding spells in the future

haha, thank you! glad you liked it :D

he's trying his hardest 😭

happy friday! i finished off the week by adding in a basic store system. excited that i'm getting close to having most of the major overworld functionality done

Concept art for an enemy in the game I'm developing, called a "Metalmoppet." It has the appearance of a squat doll-like creature with canine features, decked out in heavy armor, wielding a sword and a shield.

worked on some more enemy concept art today! trying out using a pencil brush instead of a plain ol' circle. think it gives the concept a nice texture that makes it easier to work quickly and still have something presentable after

[ #indiegame | #conceptart | #rpg ]

tysm! still concepting out a couple more party members, hope i'll get to show them off soon

thank you! the assets i'm buying are generally environmental decorations like crates, machinery, etc., so i just do some stylization in blender to make them fit the style a bit better. character models and VFX are all being handmade, since i think having a consistent art style there is crucial

implemented status effect tracking + damage over time mechanics today! trying to get a bit better at camera timing so that the cuts aren't as abrupt as before

[ #gamedev | #indiegame | #unity3d ]

thank you! that's actually not a bad idea; i'll experiment around and see if i can make something like that work

thank you!

added a basic healing spell in! took way more work than i thought it would to add in the glow effect and camera cuts

spent some time today practicing procedural materials

thanks! all my SFX are just from various humble bundles i've been collecting over the years, although i occasionally do some minor edits for things like bass boosts or timing adjustments

tysm!

each character has a special mechanic, and Vae's is Apex Mode: after filling a gauge, she can enter a powerful form for a few turns

i decided that she'd change her animations during this mode to better express the increase in strength

[ #gamedev | #indiegame | #unity3d ]

not a bad idea; thank you for the feedback!

thank you!! i can't wait until i've finally got a proper vertical slice to show

it's definitely a lot of hard work, but it's worth it for clips like that where everything comes together and you go, "damn this actually feels like a game" lol

thank you very much!

yup, for the most part, although i'm trying to be practical on using premade assets/unity packages where appropriate. i love the challenge of programming features and 3D modeling, but i'd like to get this out within the next 2 years at max, so i'm trying to be efficient about where i spend time, lol

thank you! FFX was my closest direct inspiration for both gameplay and presentation, although i'm taking bits and pieces from a whole bunch of RPGs i've loved (SaGa: Scarlet Grace, Expedition 33, etc.)

added my first spell using the VFX i made previously! think i might create a camera zoom on the impact to give it more punch, but still happy with the basics so far

[ #gamedev | #indiegame | #unity3d ]

starting to dip my toe into VFX/SFX in #unity3d with a fire spell impact! trying to get more comfortable with using FL studio for simple sound edits, e.g. reverse for risers, bass boosting to make things punchier

[ #vfx | #gamedev | #rpg ]

some more combat test footage! got all the basics working so far, including a guard/just guard mechanic. going to implement some basic abilities and then start hashing out the core numbers for things like health/damage/etc.

[ #indiegame | #gamedev | #rpg ]

this but when you get a really good comp, someone dodges, and your next lobby is like 4 ADCs + shaco

congrats! well deserved imo

some more animation work in #blender, this time a firing animation for the Amphibicannon enemy

[ #animation | #gamedev | #rpg ]

did a bunch of animating in #blender today! here's some of the work i did on Vae's basic attack; i think the arc is good, but still need to polish the followthrough pose

[ #animation | #gamedev | #rpg | #oc ]

thank you! still slowly pulling together a budget sound library (god bless humble bundle), but i kinda like the vibe they give already

A 3D render of a video game enemy called a "Reaver." It has the appearance of a skeletal humanoid with a birdlike skull, covered by a battered and torn cowl. It wields a scythe with an exaggerated blade as a weapon.

rigged + textured a new enemy model, although i still have some detail work left on it. trying to get a few enemy models together for better combat previews; hoping i'll have something cool to show by the weekend!
