🩸 Focused on making the core combat more responsive and integrating some new abilities for my aRPG #roguelite !
It's also cool seeing the new procedural loot drop - and change the character (stats and looks) 💪

Ah yes, the ALMIGHTY wet paper towel sonic speed sword 😂
Working on procedural item generation for my aRPG Roguelite and apparently now you can get these kinds of gems.
Should I tone down the madness, or is this exactly what an aRPG needs?

⚙️ Quick look at my aRPG Roguelite inventory system!
Getting the system right so every piece of armor can snap into place or be drag & dropped and instantly update the character's look!
Models are still placeholders*

Here's a quick peek at the Inventory and Upgrade screens for my aRPG Roguelite!👀
Cooking up something cool for anyone who loves serious stat-checking and optimizing - but you can always go with the "more greens in it" choice!😏

A little polish goes a long way! ✨
I've been hard at work refining the Stat and Skill Upgrade UI. This latest version provides a much more satisfying feel and is a big step up!
See the new look in action! 👇

NEW logic added! 💥
My #scifi aRPG #roguelite now has Mana/Energy and new visuals for SPECIAL weapon and item skills.
I'm planing to add element affinity to the game, so here is also an example of light/radiant affinity skills.

After tons of testing. I felt that something was missing.
That I'm forcefully making a game that's supposed to be something else.
I've pivoted to an aRPG with #roguelite elements.
And it finally feels right!

I will probably post some more info about it soon 🫡

I'm working on revamping the skill system for my horde game - basically in a more aRPG like style 🛠️
So no video this time, a janky screenshot will have to suffice 🥶

The horde is getting bigger, and the stakes are higher.
It's a bloody mess, but it's a fun one 🩸

🛠️ Spent the day creating a censor option for my game. Not all is done, but blood now turns to oil.
This aims to prevent algorithms from censoring my posts on other social sites.
My game is gory, but this setting can be useful either way.

✏️And here is the current iteration of the combat UI for my gory #scifi action horde game.
Of course, this will probably change along the way, but I think it's a good starting point.
What do you think? Feedback is greatly appreciated. 😃
