2 months ago: lifeless models.
Now: real-time melee combat in a spooky graveyard.
Still solo, still learning, but Oathguard is coming alive.

Just a lil background prop in the Level. inner voice said โ€œmake it flickerโ€ฆ add some smoke when it snuffs outโ€ โ€” so i did. maybe went a bit overboard with this candle, but i love these tiny details that serve no purpose other than looking cool ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ•ฏ๏ธ๐Ÿ’จ

i built a habit of just going back into my project for 15 min and see if i can get something small done at least, more often than not i find myself doing way more for way longer!

for anyone struggling, these were the settings that gave me the model how it was supposed to look.

Hereโ€™s a quick before & after of my game Oathguard โ€” went from flat basics to a moody, fog-drenched cemetery with glowing drops, and moonlit vibes. ๐ŸŒ˜โš”๏ธ
Still early, but the tone is starting to click.

Tough one! My Advice is try to gauge how much more you will add, say you're one month in but plan to develop it for the next year, deffo rebuild it clean with solid architecture so you can extend it easily.
if its a smaller project and you're near the finish line, only change whats necessary.

Hi, i'm Gimu,

Over the next few months, Iโ€™m building "Oathguard" a fantasy wave brawler where you are the last light against the gathering darkness!

โš”๏ธ top-down combat
๐Ÿ”ฎevolving oath abilities

Chose your Oath and protect it!
