Almost done with work on the Fortress-magic deck for the big update. Now you can shoot arrows, which is tricky, but converting them to homing arrows is fun.

Also converting bombs to cherry-bombs (max 1 damage), but always spawns 3 additional cherry-bombs is pretty wild looking.

Trick or treat - some enemies are wearing masks during Halloween season!

Now I really have to get this Towebound update out before Halloween.

Started in earnest on the third type of Towerbound magic today. It's Coral magic!

Now you can place these coral polyps, which each night spawn new coral shelf blocks on your tower. This can lead to surprising big and fragile tower designs.

Look, there's even an indicator! Really needed to study draw_arc to make this happen, kept messing up my unit circle.

Big Towerbound breakthrough over here, now directional seeming blocks that shoot things are indeed directional. Right facing ones to the right, left ones, shockingly to the left.

Towerbound shops are functional now! Save your money and buy new cards and artifacts!

Also all cards have rarities and a spellbook type. The spellbook type will work sort of the factions in Monster Train where you get a major and minor and use that to help define your strategy.

Also fixed a nasty bug where if you opened a card pack on the world screen, then quit and reloaded, any unopened artifact packs would be empty.

Sorry if you lost any artifacts friends.

Been plugging away at adding shops to Towerbound for way too long now, but I drew a shopkeeper animation, so things are looking up.

Also, now I get to be a cozy/wholesome game right??

Hey #PitchYaRogue

I'm making Towerbound freezebeam.itch.io/towerbound

It's a coffee-break length roguelike deck builder, where you cast spells to build wizard towers in the day and defend them from tower defense waves at night.

Updating from Godot 4.4 to 4.5 was smooth as heck. No issues as far as I can tell.

v1.1 Hotfix Priests have been temporarily disabled from spawning. They still have some nasty bugs that I thought were squashed. Don't worry! They'll be back soon. Meanwhile coins are working and shopping will be....

Also noticed some lingering nasty priest bugs, so hotfix is out to disable them...
