The next version of Light Descends (be it a 0.2.1 or directly the third level with 0.3.0), will have some new graphics 🤩🤩
By the way, I'm always looking for playtesters! If you want to support Light Descend's development, play it and give me any feedback you can!

I'm learning a lot recently from several yt channels about some mid-to-advances topics in #Godot 4. I think we have left behind the times where you could say that Godot lack of guides and tutorials was a disadvantage against Unity.

A week after the second big update of Light Descends comes an important fix for the web build. I wish I could've done this earlier.

I finished fixing all (known) bugs after the systems rework in Light Descends. Now I need to put some lore rewards, translate them, and the second level update will be ready!
Also, have a preview of the new visuals for the first level altar 😉

The content for the second level in Light Descends (barquero.itch.io/light-descends) is almost done, but the update will be delayed a bit because I'm reworking some systems and elements to make them more reusable, and speed up future developments.

The first 80% of the game takes 80% of the time. The final 20% takes... the other 80%.
It's a long road. But you're on it. Keep moving. You're closer than you think.

Another #indiegame recommendation until I release the trailer for Light Descends.
Finding 🏹🔥 Roguelight 🏹🔥 was an extraordinary coincidence, because I had already created mine, and it was great to see another approach to a light and dark mechanic.

I don't have much to showcase yet about the second level of Light Descends. I'll be instead recommending indies I played this month!
The 1st one: 🩸Ichorus🩸. Challenging and SUPER cool visuals. Feels like a little cousin of Blasphemous, but bloodier.

Every piece of your feedback is and has been invaluable! The most problematic aspect for now are translations... I want to be make sure they are fully fixed in the next update.
Apart from that, people seem to like the game. That motivates me a lot!

Apparently, it does! Finding a bug in your game that's been fixed in the version that just released, that's what I call luck! And now I get to try out the latest #Godot 4.5 features 🤩
If you have tried the demo for Light Descends, you have noticed that important texts are not being translated properly to English. I believe this has to do with a bug in Godot 4.4, fixed in 4.5, so I'm updating (as already planned) to see if it fixes it.
