Retroid Software

Showing off an Early Game teaser. It's nothing major but I did revise the inventory info into bullet points instead of long wordy text. Inching closer to an upcoming playtest.

The classic Throwing Axe does a lot of damage but its trajectory can make it hard to use. That is, until we pair it with a few synergistic items to offset the downsides.

Back with a small update to share. I recently reworked my combat text, inspired heavily from Castlevania: SotN. The text color and movement behave differently for each damage type, check it out!

Showing off the Aqua Pump interaction. Once you find it in one of your runs, it can be activated to enable Boss Run mode permanently. I enjoy making these things a bit more immersive when I can.

Here's the Lightning Bow, it shoots slow traveling lightning orbs. It also pairs well with the Ambit Expander to increase the area size. It evolves into the Freezing Bow that can freeze enemies.

Showing off the new Blowgun that shoots poison darts which cause damage over time. When paired with the Poison Vial, that damage will stack. Lastly is the Evolved version that shoots double darts.

Showing the Ambit Expander & Poison Vial modifiers today. The first increases the Leather Whips length while the second adds poison on hit. Leveling up each item will also increase their effects.

Back with a small but great QoL update today. I added drag & drop support to the inventory system. This updates makes it much easier to organize and manage the inventory.

Added some portraits to the dialog box and a Backpack Icon for the inventory. Also reworked the Loot Log to symbolize being added to the Backpack.

Plus that silly cat Lupi got scared and ran off :(

Showing off a Homing Wand build today. It's pretty weak early on since each shot cost mana and won't pierce. However, if paired with the Myriad and Bracers, we get multiple shots that also pierce.
