Currently cooking up mounted goblins. I always start with the animations, since it's easier to see if the base actions really connect with me or not.

I think I'm getting the hang of it!

Goblins can turn their heads, like the skeleton enemies, but they also have irises. They do a good enough job of tracking the player, I think!

Goblins can giggle when they hurt Aria, and will also pause in surprise when they hurt one of their own kind.

I added these subtle reactions because of how the game works. I like when games let enemies harm one another, even if it is just accidental.

Highlighting these moments is game juice!

Goblins are basically done, they just need to disappear when they are defeated.

Blocking, losing their posture, knockback after a flurry of attacks, dying, attacking, being parried - the whole nine yards!

This is such an incredible bug, I just have to share it.

Made some progress on the animations for a goblin enemy in my game. I think I want these guys to be more simple than the skeleton enemies I already have, since those guys are harder for people who tested the game before.

Moving platforms are a door problem in and of themselves.
Also, prototyping any level takes a lot of time. Make the space navigable and interesting in terms of layout and tangible features before you make it look pretty!

Made a few changes to combat to feel a little more responsive and tense.

Archery on horseback is somewhat done, needs some extra time in the oven but it works!

I made some changes to the horse, and gave some attention to combat again.
More in the thread!
