Tuoni - Roguelike by Old Dog @old-doggo.bsky.social · Sep 18
Last month has been busy with development, so I wanted to share some tidbits in the form of a Devlog:
store.steampowered.com/news/app/381...

Go read and leave your feedback! Presence of gnomes guaranteed!

Classes for an upcoming playtest. And yes, the full game will have even more classes and more ways to obliterate in the deep north!

Tuoni, my indie game:
- Retro & minimalistic pixel art
- Roguelike X RPG Hybrid
- Set in a Finnish Folklore Wilderness
- Open World, go wherever you want
- Explore, loot, fight & survive
- Buildcraft from dozens of skill trees
- Can you reach the land of the dead, Tuoni?

Meet the Jatulis, the Giants of the North. One of the many, many different enemies in the game, and definitely on a stronger side!

Everybody knows purple is the legendary item in RPGs.

But what kind of game uses blue for the rares? This one!

In Tuoni, the corruption starts and ends with the lost feathers of the great Swan of Tuoni. Age-old inhabitants of the forests, "Hiisi", guard the Rust Feather, as it powers their forge.

Working with a title screen can be challenging. Second draft here, I kinda dig the moose. If you stare at it long enough, it slowly blinks at you. It waits for you to enter its forest.

Opinions?

What's an RPG without a cozy old man offering guidance? Exactly.

Finnish Folklore RPG-Roguelike, of course, needs forest gnome settlements. So, here is "Tonttula".

Check out Tuoni for more gnomes (and a lot more!):

Working with a tad bit larger passive skills. The player can now transform into a peril of Frost Giants, gaining huge powers & frosty hits, but unable to wear any armor.

After a ton of system work, it is nice to add more content to the first demo.

Sneakpeak of a White Stag, the one who stands between you and the god of the forests, Tapio.

Mountain elves herding reindeer. Accidentally touch one, and the northern boys will smoke you (they know frost magic).

Game devs not-so-flashy but hugely beneficial work: Implemented a custom "blueprint" system, so creating modular extensions such as this cozy mountain-elf camp to otherwise fully procedural maps is now a breeze.

Gathering & combat go hand-in-hand. Added harvestable "Kvinroots" to the maps - slightly glowing, purplish plants that have healing properties. Now, wolf packs won't flatline you quite as fast as previously.

Creating some creepy trolls for endless caves.

The deeper you go, the bigger the eyes and nose...

Making procedural generation more interesting with additional variants for normal biomes:
- Umbral, where enemies are shadow-infested and drop crazy shadow-loot
- Kalma, where nature has been "hollowed" and carved soulless. Deadly area...

How does it look?

I'm always on the lookout for a good tile-based roguelike, and this Finnish fever dream of imps and ice trolls seems like it could have the juice
What can I say? I'm a sucker for "silent but all-seeing forests."

Implementing some non-combat checks. With high enough Wisdom you can convince age-old treasure-guarding spirit Aarni to open the buried mythical chest to you. That is, if you don't want to fight it..

Implementing one of the last remaining "core" mechanics to Tuoni - Enhancement system tied to the gathering-system. Here you can upgrade gear with gathered materials. More dangerous and wilder biomes naturally providing more rare & powerful materials!
