More Modded Content!

I bought back Discipled Inquisitor everyone's favorite miniboss from MT1.

The animations had to be updated from MT1, but works for the most part.

I'd definitely be interested in bringing back all of the minibosses as champions for a mod.

Modding for Monster Train 2 underway!

I whipped up a new status effect, Smirk. Inspired by SMT IV

+5 attack per stack, and enables "bonus effects". Decreases when attacking.

Here I gave a Strike effect, If when attacking you have Smirk apply Dazed.

Apple crisp I made last week served a la mode. Sorry for scooping skills. 😂

Apple crisp made with a brown sugar, cinnamon, pecan topping with oats.

Used Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and tossed in a single McIntosh.

If you liked the Titanite Sentry. Here's a new MONSTROUSITY I've created.

Reanimating Legion of Wax

It'd be OP if each Reanimate triggered Extinguish each time it dies.

I would think not, but for now I assume it does.

GENTLEMEN! BEHOLD!

I present to you. The Titanite Sentry.

I got inspired 😂 guess this can be my #ScreenshotSaturday entry.

May code up more of the stuff from the MT2 demo.

oh Professor Noname I'm sorry you missed the first Monster Train, but here you can have the first super express ride on the second Monster Train.

With all the new features I'll do an MT2 Clan version once the game releases / official modding support.

Continuing the Hello World of modding Monster Train 2.

Changing the name of a card.

Yeah after some code review I believe that mods made from MT1 with a little work can be rewritten for MT2. (However, the modding framework for MT1 would need to be ported over first)

Monster Train 2 demo modding w/ BepinEx

Whoowee things have been busy.

Modding Monster Train 2 progress (just looking at assets)

I got them skeletons

Effect triggers after end turn.

9 ions = 2 triggers. (Apply 2 shock to all enemies) x 2.
End of battle all enemies get electrocuted.

Second turn
8 ions = 2 triggers.

Card 27/41, Unit 3/16

Common, Non banner unit

The first of the Sentinel units. 5 units meant for support. All take up 1 capacity and have various effects.

This one just shocks everyone and then electrocutes enemies at the end of combat.

Ehh hadn't done a #gamedev post in a minute.

Here's the design for 5 units an animator did for me before vanishing a few months ago. These hadn't been rigged yet.

Just this drawing of these mini robots in various colors.

Favorite design and color? I can go on ahead and use these for the card art

Oh yeah catch up all the food I made last week. My streak ended on the 13th when I ordered out. 10 days of homemade food.

Lots of chicken 😂

Here's a strange interaction.

Vampire sucking away stone (it IS an enhancement), but the game doesn't recompute what the hand is afterwards.

The hand was supposed to be a pair, but nope. The stone cards once revealed did count towards the chips, but worth its original amount not the +50.

Yellow deck donezo

Of course I get Verdant Leaf. I sold Smiley Face with Polychrome, but then I flooped the Blueprint giving me x9 mult instead of 4.5x mult.

The entire game I had Blueprint on Vagabond and I was blasting them Tarot cards. Turned the entire deck into spades and played flush(houses)

Late Valentines Day build.

Flushes are ❤️
Play only hearts w/ Lusty Joker
Certificates are love letters w/ Hologram making the Love stronger
Madness to be madly in love.

Misprint is there.

Also ft. the fool.

I think this gets up to ante 10-11 I got observatory. Needed Blood stone really
