Finally added stagger to the player, enemies now briefly stun you when they hit you. It needs more polish, but it already adds a new layer to fights

Still refining our combat. Here’s how light attack combos and heavy attacks look now (also finally started improving our HUD)

The way he charged at me, only to land on my axe 💥

Working on our demo level and we love the idea of a fight inside this giant skull ⚔️

Win some, lose some, or as in this case, do it both at the same time 😅

A quick shot showing our parry and stun. Audio on the enemy is placeholder, this scream is meant for another enemy type

Which key art do you like better? We’re currently using A and thinking of trying B. Both are hand drawn by our solo artist

It’s amazing how much sound can elevate the feel of mechanics. Our jump feels so much better now that the audio is in

Boxes/altars/etc can be pulled, pushed, or dragged from the side
(also, finally recording in the correct FPS…)

Combats are finally starting to feel fun! Still some work left to do, especially regarding enemy AI, but it’s nice to catch yourself playing your test build over and over again simply cause it’s fun to play 🤺

Short fight clip, combat is slowly coming along… work in progress ⚔️

Just love hitting two of them with a single throw 👌 and a nice parry at the end 💥🛡️
Work in progress

Still refining our combat but it’s starting to feel and look pretty juicy
New VFX and sounds add a lot, and we’re planning some changes to the enemy AI that’ll make the fights more fun and unpredictable

It’s so satisfying to hit two of them with one swing
