Any card with a spark be transmuted into recipes for powerful potions. Recipes simply need the essence amount to produce.
Your entire 'deck' and 'build' are made on the fly as you play, strategy is in what you choose to keep/consume.

Rough targeting visual.
#Gamedev #WIP
Tonight I wrote a weighted targeted-nearest system that attempts to score which cards you're attempt to target while holding a card.
This weight target selection helps it 'feel right' when the player is making choices.

Wards.
Armor in gaming can be done a lot of ways, I prefered to simplify it. Ward is very powerful and simply protects from 1 attack, pure and simple. Any damage is reduced to 0 and 1 Ward charge is removed. Easy to use, tricky to strategize around.

Here is another example showing how transmutation (an action) triggers both mob counters at the same time.

Action based gameplay.
Mobs have a wide arrange of attacks and spells, and they cast those when their action counter hits 0. Every "action" the player takes reduces their counter.

Thanks! I am a big fan of the style, the only thing holding me back is I worry it lends to being 'too simple.'
This week I am experimenting with minimalistic mob designs to dial in the aesthetic choices.
These are basically stick figures in my eyes, but I am a big fan of the aesthetic, contrast, and ease of color balancing.

Shy GOHST.
This little dudes mechanic is so adorable that he's getting his own place in the trailer for sure.

Albeit (as a dev) self-serving, I agree.
Gaming as a whole could do with a lot less hate, but devs seem to get a disproportionate amount for folks just out to make fun things for people.
After months of systems development, finally moving into art and aesthetic. So much work ahead but she's finally looking like a game!

I need to work... but... some days it's just a different priority.
I like video games.
I hope you do too.
Someone posted a crazy cut up pizza and I couldn't help but notice something.......
Classic. Makes me want to buy an old GBA SP and start a new adventure.
Sequel was also fantastic.

I'm day 3 into learning to play #piano.
So far this is how online research feels:
1st day learning piano.
Question: Why are notes letters instead of numbers?
Numbers makes way more sense.
