Little cat coding buddy. Whenever I'm working behind the computer he's lying in a chair next to me or when I'm anywhere else he's there too.

Trying to add the short clip of the animation since i forgot in my previous post but it's not letting me. After posting it it deletes the post.🥲

Added the possibility to add animations and move sound effects demonstrated here with a simple quick ice animation. Will probably add some simple animations for the demo, to be upgraded when any budget is here.

Build has been submitted for review. Also slightly improved the movement of the player character. Anxious to when the demo will go live and everyone can try it out.

Already enjoying playing through what i have for the demo at the moment so that counts for something i think. submitting the build for review tomorrow so maybe at the end of the week it's playable for everyone.

Fixed some random bugs and also added this random trainer to make xp farming easy for testing purposes. might look like bullying the small critters😅😢.

My brother came over yesterday but i still managed to do some bug fixes like making the fight not end when you lose all your life from a recoil move. Plus i rebalanced the xp gain system to make it easier on early levels.

Really zoomed out look at the demo map with all the grasses highlighted. Just got done placing them all and making sure spawns and levels are correct. About 12k+ grass pieces.

Had a rest day yesterday which everyone should do of course when possible. Can't work on a game everyday non-stop for a month unfortunately.

Last grasses to place on the paths, make everything a bit nicer to look at and last thing to do is fix some new bugs i found. The demo is almost ready for upload to steam.🎆🎇

A full day of giving names like witch wynter to all the trainers you need to fight, assigning semi-balanced teams of Mythbeasts to each and placing them in the correct spots.

Music by Elektrobear

FreshFocusGames @freshfocusgames.bsky.social · 12d

Music is added to the game with smoothish transitions. Currently works with 4 overworld tunes that cycle through eachother and 3 fight tunes that get picked at random every fight.

Busy day of working on my demo for Mythbeasts.
Also chose some background music options and fight tunes from a bundle made by Elektrobear.

Here is the full map for the demo it's 1 area from the game. The full game will have different biomes, now busy with where to place all the trainers and encounter grasses. Plus balancing it best i can.

It will be an open world, choose your own direction but the path choosing makes a real difference in the full game when you've been playing for long and there are multiple areas.

Working on the demo's layout for where you can go, after this i can assign trainers to places which you will need to defeat to continue. Doesn't look like much from up high like this but gives a small idea how big it can be.

Was thinking 2 hours something
Everyone can try out how the game works, catch some mythbeasts and fight some battles that get more difficult

FreshFocusGames @freshfocusgames.bsky.social · 14d

Much appreciated ❤️

A question for everyone reading this: How long would you like a demo to be for a game? Like how many hours of gameplay to complete the demo not to forget after that if you want to catch and evolve all the mythbeasts in the demo.

Quick 15min doodle of a Mytbeast. Haven't drawn on paper in about 10 years. His typing will be water/insect. Hands and feet suck but overall decent i think.

Added a loss animation when a Mythbeasts health reaches 0 they spin and shrink until they disappear.
