Fear the Reaper.

The next update to Shattered Pixel Dungeon will make some pretty big changes to the Warrior. His current shielding over time benefit is passive and hard to notice, so I'm changing it to grant him a bunch of shielding up-front, with a cooldown.

Are you a junior or aspiring #gamedev #indiedev? Here's why I think it's beneficial to make a #RTS game.

Most TCGs have some "grouping" of cards, seperating gameplay styles (think colors in Magic, or classes in many digital games)
I'm experimenting with an "Affinity" system to handle that in my game:
If your character is bad at the type of magic your card represents, it becomes more expensive. Here, the character played excels at Element-based Magic, so this Physics-based spell is difficult and therefore incurs a +2 cost penalty #madewithgodot #screenshotsaturday #indiedev #cardgames

As Agents of Groove for #playdate approaches beta (!), Daley Bellbottoms would like to remind everyone that G.R.O.O.V.E. disguises can be highly flammable, and thus should be handled with caution in the field.

Mostly fixing bugs lately, + doing some maintenance/utility work, like a button to disable villagers' hunger for testing, or better unicode support & font fallbacks.

Though I messed something up with the fonts, and only the fallback works rn

The good thing is that UI auto layout works flawlessly with a new font :)

Watch your step! If you fall, you'll break that orb you need to carry to another room of that temple...

I've been working on a new Prototype.
You play in a small store that sells snacks and also gets parcels that people can collect from you.

Testing a "ballistic modifier" that turns the rocker launcher into a grenade launcher. Currently it's too hard to use but I see potential here. The auto-aim uses high arc when the line of sight is blocked, so you can shoot over obstacles.

This week, between migraines and errands I was able to get a small sketch concept drawn up of a Mimic type Mek called a Mimex. This little guy will have different variants for different stages in #XenithAwakening.
