A sneak peek at the second boss for my brick breaker fighting game! The sprites are still first pass, but the fight mechanics are getting there!
Don't forget to check out and wishlist Sugar Shatter: s.team/a/4275860/

Working on polishing up some sprites with shading/lighting - really happy with how I animated the hair for this attack animation!

For bigger systems and features, I try to break it down so I can still test each step individually before doing a bigger pass once the feature is complete to iron out bugs and stuff

I usually try stuff a bit as I'm implementing it - e.g. "run every time you make a small tweak"; I then do a bigger self-playtest every few days to validate big picture things like different mechanics working together, game feel, game balance, etc.

Thanks for trying it out! I definitely put a lot of content in the demo - but the full game will have more characters, more levels, more game modes, boss fights, and a bigger story! :D
Also lowkey considering trying to implement online multiplayer, though idk if my gamedev skills will let me.. QQ

Thanks for trying it out! I've gotten a lot of comments about the game difficulty so hopefully I'll be able to tune that down a bit in the future; Hope you enjoyed the game!

So many people like V3! I thought V1 would be the most popular haha

True - I was just planning for this to be a small mini-boss but I like that idea of adding all 3 :D

Trying to come up with some more enemy designs, and I can't decide on which of these three to use for a mini-boss; They're all just too cute ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ

Next Fest is ending soon, looking forward to taking a social media break and just getting back into actual dev work again!
Shoutout to all the devs who were a part of next fest, after my first one I finally understand how much work it is ๐ญ

Chill vibes and good times. Please be good to each other. Primarily focus on cRPG content but you never know what you'll see me streaming. :)

haha I might give myself a "refactor week" to mentally reset - just a small hit, can't hurt right? ๐ฅถ

Not me hard-coding things and making tech debt exponentially worse, fully knowing that I'm going to hate myself in a few weeks :/

Hi! Thanks for trying out Sugar Shatter, hope that first level wasn't too frustrating haha - I've realized that watermelons are REALLY brutal for new players while you're learning how the ball movement works, so I'll definitely change that in the future; Other than that, hope you enjoyed the game :)
