Speech Bubbles

Here is what it looks like:

Here is a version with moving camera angle:

They are implemented with curves and triangulation instead of as textures (images), so stuff like changing their color is ver...

Some design considerations and features

For this game, I want a simple control scheme that is playable with one-hand. It should be playable with either using a mouse only, using a keyboard only, or using a controller. The best way to accomplish this, in my opinion, is to keep the number of buttons low. Therefore, for gameplay, there will only be 2 buttons, an “Affirmative” button, and a “Back” button + directional controls - ...

Grab System 101

Finally made enough progress on the grab system implementation and UI to make it functional enough. Here is an introduction on how it works.

Units may have certain abilities that can place an opponent into a grab. They might come in different flavors. For example, some may have higher chance to hit, but costs HP or MP. Some may be ranged and pull the victim into you. Shown here is a simpl...

Progress

Hope everybody had a good Thanksgiving! (if you celebrate it)

I been working on the new game and made lots of progress. Dungeon generation, path finding, UI, transition, just to name a few. Here is a quick gif to demonstrate the dungeon exploration + encounter/combat portion of the game.

The graphics/animations (or lack of) are just placeholders, my primary concern is to get a Minim...

Why make a turn-based game?

“Turn based RPGMaker games and VNs are a dime a dozen, and is usually uninspired, why make another one?” 

On that, I wholeheartedly agree. But, I am not making another RPGMaker game, I am making a party based tactics game. Even though these two genres are both turn-based, the game plays out very differently. Most people would agree that games like XCOM,...

What if Heroine Rescue Team was a turn-based game?

Working on a new game! Like HRT, it is a party based and feature in-combat grabs. However, it wouldn’t be an action game but is turn-based instead. 

Here is a super duper early concept video of the gameplay:

Originally, I was aiming for a side-view camera like darkest dungeon. However, that limits the angle you can view the grabs at, so a grid + full 360 degrees camera is mor...

Happy Halloween!

Download V0.641 here!

This is a small bug fixing patch that fixes some bugs with v0.64. 

There seems to be an issue with the game stuck at loading bodyMeshNAnim for some people. I spent the last two days looking into this issue and examined various saves/mods/etc and I...

Ruins Part 1 is here! Finished implementing some of the new units but had no time to work on the Map itself. So instead, used the "old" dungeons system to give players an opportunity against those new units. 

In the picture is the new "Knight's Set." The...

Sneak Peak 2

Here is a preview of the boss on the first floor of Ruins. I saw quite a few "monster" designs by modders and I thought, hey, that's pretty cool. Let's add one to the base game too. And voila. I also added a few tricks to it so its not completely helpless versus ranged attacks: ;)

Patch is finally here! I redesigned the "map" progression system and got rid of the random companion recruitment in place of something better.  As you progress and unlock new maps, yo...

Some Upcoming Features

1) Button mashing!

By popular vote, this feature is now in the game. In a situation that you need to escape, mash either LMB, RMB or the movements keys to fill the escape bar. This is on by default but you can switch it to "auto" button mash (the current system) under Options - Controls.

2) Nested mod folder handling

When you extract a mod folder, it is very easy to end up wit...

First of all, I like to thank everyone for participating in the previous poll and for writing all the feedback. To be honest, it's a lot more comments than I anticipated because I don't usually get many comments on my pos...

Do you want button mashing?

It came to my attention that not everyone is happy with how the escape system works. In short, they felt that a button mashing or some other QTE (Quick Time Event) is better than the current "passive" system. So, here is a poll, do you prefer the current escape system, or something more "active", like button mashing?

V0.6 - vine traps

V0.6 is here! (I scaled the version number by a factor of 1/10).

The main feature in this patch is 3 additional vine animations + player peaceable traps. Includes th...

A Poll

The vine moves are pretty well received, and for next patch, I added a few more variations.

In the current patch, only enemies are able to use the vine moves, so naturally, people want a way for them to use vine moves on others. However, since the player is not a tentacle monster, having her able to summon vines out of the thin air is kinda weird. But there is an alternative, I am going t...

I forgot to mention in the preview that I added a new merchant in town. She specializes in newly added items that doesn't really drop from anywhere else. You can expect her inventory to change from patch to patch.

 Otherwise, the mea...

Almost Ready

If you are wondering why the next patch took so long, look no further than the picture below. I’ll admit, I don't have experience animating tentacles, so that took some trial and error in blender to model, rig and animate them. That wasn’t too bad. The problem is, how to make the tentacles animations work for different body sizes. And that took much longer. But it is done, functional, and y...

V5.0841 - so many bugs
