First steps on the combat system!

Got bullet trails & ricochets working, along with some basic deckbuilding functionality, where you draw a hand of 6 bullets from a deck each turn.

Next step is probably knockback, attacks that move units are gonna be a bit complex

Got to the "token horror segment of Analgesic Production games" for Angeline Era & its peak

wish it had less backtracking, but that's partly a skill issue as you can play a high risk game and keep going without backtracking as much

I'm glad I came across the bullet ricochet design for this game.

In the middle of adding knockback / piercing, but can't wait to see what these shot previews turn into as new mechanics get implemented

I've always had a pet peeve against amputated characters who have a prosthetic limb that just works objectively better than a normal limb

Like if you wanna give then gadgets then sure, go for it, but it's fun to explore a character working around limited movement, poor balance, & lack of touch

I just woke up from a nap and somehow while I was asleep, everyone on the bus has figured out we are not going to the right place

Not sure how much of this I'll make player facing - but the bullets (cards) are built with modules inspired by Noita wand crafting, so no scripting needed after making the base module.

Here's a bullet that gains 1 damage per cell it travels

Using a combination of glitches in Super Mario World, Yoshi can be taken into the final battle, where he can eat Peach upon Bowser's defeat. With Peach gone, the ending will not play, and Mario and Yoshi will simply stare at each other forever.
