#screenshotsaturday update!

๐Ÿ’ญ One of my favorite moments in development is when systems start to interact in unexpected, satisfying ways.

โš™๏ธThis week I added new weapon components
and gave enemies the ability to move โ€” and it finally feels alive.

For me most interesting sounds: "A resource management dungeon looting game with time based mechanics" :)

A bit like you said, we plan to do a variation on Space Invaders / Galaga, but a bit turned upside down. We want to maintain the feeling of satisfaction from destroying rows of ships, the mission structure, and the clean design, but at the same time slow down the pace and add depth :)

Hey, Iโ€™m a long-time systems designer & indie dev.
Making a turn-based roguelike in deep space - cosmic horror /grimdark mood, and a bit of Space Invaders chaos.
Working nights with my wife, fueled by coffee & dread. โ˜•๐Ÿ‘๏ธ
