I'm making a minimalist dark fantasy strategy game that combines chess and traditional tactics into a challenging #turnbased #roguelite.

Check out the demo on Steam! store.steampowered.com/app/3106600
That might be a few too many enemies...

How about a look at the character portraits for #ScreenshotSaturday?

You can pair these with 176 pre-selected medieval names or add your own!

My golfing roguelike's been on my mind again lately. May have to revisit the idea after Unto Deepest Depths is out...

TIL #GodotEngine has built-in support for following focused child nodes. Neat!

Oh, and working on rebindable controls ⌨️

Making this plugin was already worth it for creating units earlier on in the dev cycle, but even now, in the beta stage, it's been saving me a lot of time to quickly iterate on tweaks to existing units.

Definitely doing more plugins for future projects!

#GodotEngine #gamedev #indiedev
Here's something a little different for #ScreenshotSaturday, a quick look at my custom #GodotEngine plugin for managing unit actions, with the mage as an example.

Left column are the relative cells to attack, right is the cell to click to activate, and above is the rule for when it's valid.

Coming soon, placing your units before battle!

Working on letting you see where enemies could attack if other units move out of the way (hatched area) to help with turn planning.

Fixed a bug on teleporting units so that they can now properly pass through walls to reach their destination!
