made brandy to get drunk, made brandy flammable, made brandy throwable and splash into puddles of liquor, made lit torches ignite flammable substances when thrown, made fire spread to nearby puddles, made fire burn items and actors, and introduced about a million bugs #roguelike #godot #gamedev

containers like chests now generate with items, and i've linked item rarity to dungeon depth, with items in containers getting a rarity boost. all sounds great until you battle a bandit to loot their chest to find their life savings was two bones and two cudgels #roguelike #godot #gamedev

I spent so long searching for the right minimalist pixel art to work with but the answer was in front of me this whole time, it’s too late to go back now but part of me will forever yearn to make a game with this, no colours, no effects, only the most amateur of programmer animation

here is the arcanist's infuse gem ability. You infuse a gem with a fire spirit which makes it explode on being picked up and then leave it around to kill unsuspecting innocents. I'm pretty happy that the item, ability and AI systems all come together nicely on this one #roguelike #godot #gamedev

it's a bit hard to work out from this but the dude with the staff is a healer who doesnt fight but goes around casting 'nine herbs charm' and injured friends, a charm that gradually heals over time. This was a bit complicated with an all new ai but works well now #roguelike #godot #gamedev

I made my first arcanist class power, which is basically my magic system but with the spells being more subtle than simply dealing damage directly. This one is offering food and wine to summon a slyph to follow you around as light source #roguelike #gamedev #godot

testing out the confirm prompts for attacking allies on Olaf the Bald and all looks good. Here you can see poor Olaf going hostile and then friendly again and being offered terms before being finished off. The health bars are now coloured to show allied/friendly/enemy #roguelike #godot #gamedev

the unsexy work of giving every entity a unique ID and working on properly serialising every piece of data means that complex AI states are now properly saved and allies now share knowledge of who has annoyed them between each other, as depicted below #roguelike #godot #gamedev

it is hard to show action from a turn based game but i did 'offer terms' ability so you can show mercy to your bandit bros and chill around the campfire after a tough battle. using this is going to be a gallant class feature ability for goofy chivalry conduct rules #roguelike #godot #gamedev

not sure if a feature or a bug, but I decided to earnestly play my game to see how far I could get and I was cruising until I got one-shotted out of nowhere by a goblin with a two-handed sword who critically hit me and then rolled exceptionally for damage #roguelike #godot #gamedev

working on dungeon layout with specific themed rooms with appropriate fixtures and npc generation. It seems to be going ok and this is meant to be a bandit camp with a few beds and a small chest #roguelike #godot #gamedev

playing with torches and lighting. when you equip a torch, you light it and it retains that effect when you drop it but gets put out when picked up and put into your pack. this lets the player do tricky things like light up an area with torches on the ground for combat #roguelike #godot #gamedev

flame cloud effect - this will be the environmental effect that is used for burning objects, gases, actors, etc #roguelike #godot #gamedev

I got webs, which seems easy I know but I had to write a heap of code to make environmental effects impose passive effects on actors. Next I want flame clouds to burn actors, then make webs burn, then make spiders spawn in a web house #roguelike #godot #gamedev

throwable mud as a way for goblins to initiate combat, blinding their opponents with a mud pie to the face to reduce their perception, I think I am well on the way to writing the most annoying enemies possible

I thought the whole time that I mostly wanted just human enemies in this game but it was starting to feel a bit samey so I added goblins and the creatively titled goblin mobs that can spawn: goblin, goblins, more_goblins, and goblin_horde #roguelike #godot #indiedev

I just realised that when I gave undead the lowest possible perception score, I also made them effectively blind in the dark. Not very scary when skeletons just stand still in dark rooms doing nothing while you bash them to bits

this is the start of some of my more complex gameplay ideas now that combat is feeling fairly settled. i need to implement altars and shrines to various saints and more weird and unusual spirits and the offer terms ability was always a planned part of the chivalry system #roguelike #godot #indiedev
