Made some new palette options. The middle palette is the same as the rightmost one of the previous set. Feedback is appreciated. #hex_summons #game_dev #gamedev #indiedev #indie_dev #videogames #conceptart #pixelart

Created sprite palette comparison for wind wisps. Currently, I am leaning towards the third palette, but feedback is appreciated. #hex_summons #game_dev #gamedev #indiedev #indie_dev #videogames #conceptart #pixelart

Fixed bug for UI where it was possible to use actions that were marked as unavailable by clicking away from them. Worked on concept art for summons. #hex_summons #game_dev #gamedev #indiedev #indie_dev #videogames

Concept art for a potential summon, Medjed, the Smiter. #hex_summons #game_dev #gamedev #indiedev #indie_dev #videogames #conceptart #pixelart
A series of possible designs for a character inspired by the Egyptian mythological figure, Medjed. In the top right is one depiction of the original figure, a simple bed sheet ghost with two eyes and legs with a sash. The top two images depict a figure with a spoon like head, with an orb of power floating in the curve of the spoon. Two green eyes hover in front of the orb. The figure has spindly legs that peek out from beneath a red cloak. One of the images depicts the figure firing a beam from the orb. The middle row of three images depicts a different design for Medjed. This design has the character wearing a helmet atop two spindly legs. There is an orb of power inside the helmet. The figure wears a red cloak and a red face covering that hides the mouth. The middle image in this row shows the character firing beams from the eye holes. The right image shows the face of the helmet fully open, completely exposing the orb contained within the helmet. The orb is firing a massive beam of energy. The bottom row of three images shows another design for Medjed. The head of the character is similar to a desk lamp, with a red cloak draped around the base. The head of the lamp shape is reminiscent of a bent spoon. There is an orb of power hovering below the head of the spoon head, with two drapes covering the orb. There are patterns of an eye on each drape. Two stubby legs are at the base of the head. The middle image shows the character firing two beams from the orb. These beams pass through the pupil area on the eye patterns of the drapes. The right image shows the character firing a single massive beam from the orb. The drapes on the head are being violently blown aside.

Another piece of concept art for Urania. #hex_summons #game_dev #gamedev #indiedev #indie_dev #videogames #conceptart #pixelart
A dancing maiden with pink hair buns whose lower half is a black hole. Her skin is a deep purple and dotted with stars. Behind her a massive circle hovers. It bears a pattern similar to an astrolabe and is also dotted with stars. Her eyes are closed, her expression content.

Created concept art for summon, Judgement. Earlier character art was for the in-game sprite. I felt it important to better define the character. Feedback is appreciated. #hex_summons #game_dev #gamedev #indiedev #indie_dev #videogames #conceptart #pixelart
Original 64x64 sprite.

Began building a system for using player data not built in to the combat encounter. This will eventually let players make their own parties for battle. Upgraded from Godot v3.6 to Godot v4.5. #hex_summons #game_dev #indie_dev #videogames

Was suggested to try to render the wind wisps using silvers and/or whites to make them look less grassy. Feedback is appreciated. #hex_summons #indiedev #pixelart #conceptart
Wisp with original green pallete.
