An area of #gamedev that I never thought about, but find surprisingly fun is sound design, such as this little effect that plays when you level up.

I guess coming from SaaS UX design is refreshing to put more life into things using sound.

I've been busy all week reworking the skill milestones into skill trees. This design will give the player more meaningful choices while leveling up their character.

Here's the first 4 skills complete!

It looks quite nice! You could probably make it a little bit more noticeable (more contrast, or more stuff with normals) without it detracting from the visuals IMO.

A game that goes too far with normals is Songs of Syx, I always felt they had way too much contrast, and it ends up feeling noisy.

Dang, this looks great! The normal maps are very subtle in the still image, but I guess they're more noticeable while moving around?

Thank you for hosting!

I'm a solo dev making a turn-based RPG, where the world is 100% procedural and simulated.

In Dwarf Fortress style, when you die, you can revisit the world after several years to see how your actions have impacted it!
