The past few months I've been doing another visual pass at the NPC slug town.
Last version was a good improvement, but it still was not quite there yet and I had to make some bold changes. Very happy with the results this time😊
Here's a quick tour!

I've always loved the look of the coral reef biome in Don't Starve Shipwrecked, so I tried to create my version of it using Unity's Shadergraph.
All generated with procedural noise :)

Showing off some combat in my sea slug RPG using a variety of weapons, plus an inventory wheel menu to quickly switch between equipment

Finished building heavy weapons with a slow 2-part swing primary attack for damage and huge knockback, plus a devastating slam for alt attack.
It's hammer time 💥🔨

A lionfish-inspired creature that lunges at its prey to deliver a ferocious bite. Better watch out! 🦁

Testing spear weapons with a 3-part thrust primary attack for damage and knockback, and a spear throw for a strong alt attack, all aim where the cursor points at.
How do you think this combat looks in a top-down 2D game with 4-directional animations?

It's been two years since I started working on my game full-time. The toughest part was reworking the all of the art, and my NPC village got the biggest face lift. It was a very long process but a good exercise to explore the direction I want.

A quick showcase of #cooking in the game - you can build a grill that takes a single food item to cook, or a stove set that requires multiple ingredients to make fancier meals🍳

Are they rabbits? Are they cows? Someone even called them mammoths?! 🤔
All you need to know is that they're fuzzy, chill, and friendly 🥰But if they must have a name, what do you think should they be called?

An ensemble of fauna you can encounter in my game, each design references a sea creature IRL! 🐠
Can you name the references for all of them? Which one is your favorite?
