I hope everyone is doing well and had a great Christmas, I just wanted to make a quick update on the progress for the next update and celebrate 1000 total downloads.
First of all, I'd like to apologize for the update taking so long but it's been a lot of work so far since most of the way classes functioned and their skills are being completely redone. I've just finished adding all the skills for all 80 classes and I've tried to make them all feel unique from one another while trying to re-use as few animations as possible. Most of the reuse in animations is for the melee classes because there's only so many different ways to show a melee hit. I've added an image for what one of the class trees looks like. The woodsman class took the second longest to make since each vocation works differently from each other. The idea with each class tree is that the starting class has a few generic skills for the class that can go with the vocations. Then, the vocation is the main part of the class tree where you get most of your skills and it defines that classes play style. Finally, the specialization is where you get a few more spells that lean more toward one aspect of that vocation or add a bit more.
There should be more than 408 skills across all classes when accounting for some duplicates and some classes not having as many. It's made up of mostly damage focused skills with utility focused being the smaller percent, probably about a 70 -30 split. This doesn't account for passives because their, well, passives. The passives provide some amount of percentage boost to special stats like hit rate, evasion, counter attack chance, that sort of stuff.
It probably gonna take at least another 1-2 months to get everything setup the rest of the way. I know, a long time, but I'll try to get it ready for that time frame, no promises.
Also, I'd just like to thank everyone for 1,000 downloads (~58% from Android, ~38% from Windows, & ~4% from MacOS) . Considering I only ever advertised the game once 1 1/2 years ago when I initially released it is wild. Hopefully the next 1,000 happen much faster, but I'll keep working to improve the game regardless because it's my passion. Sincerely, thank you.
If you have any questions or comments about the next update or whatever else, feel free to ask.
Have a Happy New Year!
