Hey #indiedev friends! Sharing some of the progress on our #indiegame, #Amurial: The Shadowed Worth!

We finished up our first enemy's #gameart and #gameanimation. Imported and set up a basic controller.

Still needs some polish, but we are really happy with how it came out. What do ya think?

Haha, ambition is the enemy of reason - don't think I'd heard of that! I may have to borrow it!

Haha 100% feel you on so many fun ideas, so little time! A desktop calculator with a dungeon crawler? Sounds cool! What's it called?

That's a pretty sound strategy, Robert! And yeah, I see new features as fun problem solving puzzles too!

Me: I’m gonna keep this #indiegame simple. Just a chill little project.

Also me, 3 weeks later: “So the dialogue system dynamically reacts to moon phases and player blood type...”

Anyone else building a small game? 😂👇

We have enemy 1 #gameanimations imported into our #indiegame, #Amurial: The Shadowed Worth.

Next up, more #spine2d animation for the 3/4 north facing enemy 1. Can't wait to finish up our first enemy!

Super excited to share some progress on our #indiegame, #Amurial: The Shadowed Worth!

Knocked out this #gameanimation using #spine2d! Next we'll animate a death animation and work on the 3/4 North Facing views and animations.

Happy Friday #indiedev friends!

Just knocked out some #spine2d #gameanimation for our first enemy character.

This enemy is for our #indiegame #Amurial: The Shadowed Worth.

We experimented this week with frame by frame animation vs Spine animation. Thinking Spine won!

#Amurial: The Shadowed Worth, #devblog

We got an enemy battle prototype complete. Player can die and respawn. the animations are temporary.

Probably going to switch to 3/4 view for player and enemies/NPCs. This saves some #animation effort!

🎮 #Amurial: The Shadowed Worth

Started prototyping enemy combat! Still need animation, but got a state machine set up and ready to go!

Wonder what this would look like on a Switch 2.

Our artist put together a little intro for our #indiedev studio!

We are working on #Amurial: The Shadowed Worth. It's a game like #stardew and #valheim but with a deep, epic story and RPG elements.
