Field position is everything.

Ball Swap is a new ability allowing Gamebreakers to swap places with the ball. Use it to move a great distance and position the ball near your team!

⌛ - I don't know why it took me so long to implement this as it was finished in an hour. 😅

🗺️ - Highlighting with the cursor now shows moves! Along side that, Clicking enemies shows their range so you can keep an eye on slippery enemies!

The fun you’re having working on it shines through the game itself. It’s a blast and delight to play. I can’t wait for it to come out.

Wow how cool! Thanks for hosting #turnbasedthursday @gog.com

I am building a turn based magical football game where victory comes from out scoring your opponent. Check out the Fantasy Football Tactics demo on Steam (and hopefully someday... GOG!): bsky.app/profile/jlan...
Nothing sums up the excitement of football quite like the Hail Mary pass. The quarterback takes the snap, winds up their arm, and launches a rocket down the field. What happens next is up to fate...

Been playing around with the idea of being able to run around camp in between missions to manage and have conversations with your army. Made a rough little prototype and I can see the potential.

Hail Mary is the ultimate risk/reward play. The receiver has a 50% chance of instantly being walloped and super fumbling the ball! Luckily I kept Rewind enabled so I could try again :)

Wrote my first Renderer Feature for URP to create some heat distortion for the new lava playfield. Also getting more familiar with Shader Graph in the process. Brick by brick... it's starting to make sense!

This took a while to do. I compared Final Fantasy Tactics, Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions, and Final Fantasy Tactics - The Ivalice Chronicles for @rpgsite.net going over features, platform differences, visuals, load times for all the versions, and more: www.rpgsite.net/feature/1859...

I’m unsure how I feel about having characters in a game tell me how to play in terms of keyboard buttons and stuff. It’s a bit of an immersion break, but it’s also cool to have the game explained by a character rather than a popup hmm..
