Starting work on secondary weapons polishing, for reference, this is my starting point. Let's see how much I can make them pop!! 🔥
Considering the echolocation mechanic, it's going to be a chore 😂

Spent last week mostly working on the Darkness Seal and Gift mechanic. 💪
Like a manifestation of the Darkness Demons power where he marks enemies in the dark and when activated you do a massive slash dealing tons of damage. It gets destroyed if it's revealed by echolocation though 😅 #trailertuesday

Some background assets for the first tower, it's the bottom layer of the castle where the army resides. It has its training grounds, beds, and generally weapon racks with training dummies. Can't wait to lay them all out on the levels! 😍 #indegame

Weapon rooms give you an awesome weapon, but you need to beat a ''Weapon master'' first, and that is well... a risk worth taking? How we feeling about this trade-off? #trailertuesday

Designing trap rooms is one of the most fun parts of level design for me. 🙌
Do you feel a little too happy when players get caught in traps you designed? #indiedev

Love seeing the evolution of our echolocation shader. 😍
Figuring out how to make the area revealing feel like it's sound rather than light was and still is a very fun process!
The game is Echo: Defy Death btw, you can wishlist it on Steam to support us!🙌 #TrailerTuesday

We are excited to announce Echo: Defy Death by 3Hills as our next WINGS-funded game 🖤
A roguelite about a blind ninja who uses echolocation to fight demons. With his sight stolen, he must battle in darkness, master the power of sound, and harness demonic magic to hunt the one who took his eyes 👁️
