SOMETHING EXCITING COMIC SOON
OOOO!
This piece is insane and I really love the composition.

A #VgenComm for @the-space-between.bsky.social aka @squimoo.bsky.social who wanted Vexen and Feri!
Lads you HAVE to read this webcomic. Absolute top tier art and writing. Chef kiss 💋
A man—a monster? His head a speech bubble, his right arm a none, he is a soccer star.
Same as before, but more raw, more brilliant.
Could've sworn I'd posted this to Bsky before—fanart of a tragic character @y2jenn.bsky.social's son drew when he was ten. 2020. #art

The game has been updated with two bugfixes to make multiplayer a bit more smooth!

#gamedev #indiedev
Screenshot from The Hunt featuring two players, Artha and EvilArtha, together in the same place. A "Team Up!" button appears over EvilArtha's data bar, where you'd normally expect values like health and stamina. A drawn arrow point to this with text added "We are in the same team". There's no need to team up with someone you're already in team with…
Well, it's time to stop beating myself down for crappy multiplayer, time to get fixing.
Here's the first fix: sometimes the game failed to recognize two players are on the same team. Not anymore.
I'm going to do a few more fixes before publishing my changes.
TL;DR of the notes is that the game is still in a "demo" state. It's not much, but hopefully it will be fun!

Today I'm sharing a little more of The Hunt's story as it inches ever closer to its release. To prepare you for the day it happens, I name its features and content, as I look into the future with hope: should the game find its people.

A tiny version of Samerion the dragon guarding a similarly tiny chest.

#TheHunt has officially entered feature freeze! There is just slightly more than a month until the game's release.
The game has 2 classes with 8 and 7 perks respectively; 11 unlockable spells, 39 status effects (!), 7 unique events and 2 mini bosses.
See you on September 5th!

On the side, it's a bit insane to think I've spent months on making a game, only to get 100 minutes of average playtime so far (source: playtests)
But hey, I'm speeding up.
The Hunt, which releases in two months, has reached a significant milestone. The game's foundation is now solid enough so I can keep pushing content! Despite gamedeving for a decade, this is a new thing for me.

The player uses Charge, which gives them a brief Sharp Tool buff, immediately followed by an attack from their weapon — This deals 16 damage to a wolf, 4 points of which constitute bonus damage. The ability then adds 8 points of weakness — double the bonus damage — to the Wolf. Wolf was defeated. +1 XP
Weakness 8 Those who are weakened will be unable to deal physical damage. This condition can only be overcome by fighting regardless — damage will be dealt to the weakness itself.
Today, I've added a new Warrior perk for #TheHunt:
Charge performs a slightly stronger melee attack, and *weakens* the opponent. This stacks with other perks that boost attack strength; every point of bonus damage makes the weakness more powerful.
Description for the Revenge Strike perk from The Hunt, designed for The Warrior character class. To unlock this perk, the player is required to take 40 damage in a single fight, while bearing a melee weapon. The screenshotter has completed this challenge, and has activated this perk. Usage: Targets user 2 stamina 2 turns Effects: Gain a shield that reduces incoming damage by 4 points. The shield lasts 2 attacks, or until combat ends. If the shield is destroyed, the Warrior's next melee weapon attack gains a +2 bonus.
In #TheHunt, leveling is not just about collecting XP. To advance in your chosen character class, you need to stay close to its spiritual or ideological path.
