8th January 2024 Update

Quest of the hero
A downloadable game

I have worked in the past one week and a half or so to do some updates to the game. It is still not there yet, it is a few months away from a “Steam sellable” state, but I’m making progress one step at a time.

This update comes with:

  • some game juice such as some particles, some click and mouse hovering sounds effects and animations, mostly on the main menu
  • removed the upgrade tracks from the main menu except for the “Blacksmith” one, so that I can focus on adding content one track at a time
  • reworked how the hero creation works, and moved from a completely random generation to a class system. For now, I am starting with Fighter, a generic strength based sword wielding hero. This will impact the gameplay by making only a subset of the skills available.
  • removed older niche items (dagger, staff, axe, hammer, the only weapons left are a sword and a book) and added more stats generic items in three tiers (shards giving small bonuses, gems giving medium bonuses and spheres giving big bonuses)
  • added critical hit system (a chance to hit for a multiplier with normal attacks)

Some logistics:

  • added builds for Windows and Linux. The Windows one is untested but I trust Godot to have exported it fine. Let me know if there are some issues with it :D
  • automated the export process with Godot
