Again not super pretty, still blocking things out. But I'm testing out combat on temorary platforms, wich is something ive wanted to add for a while! Probably needs a bit more leniency though #pico8 #gamedev #indiegamedev #indiegame #pixelart #umbragame

Finally ported all the basic entities to the new system! Everything still needs a few tweaks but, it should be good to move to the other carts at some point in the future. Though Im gonna focus on building the last level stuff for now. #pico8 #gamedev #indiegamedev #indiegame #pixelart #umbragame

Still working on porting over all the old enemies to the new entity system,and things are going smoothly! Got bloodstones and animations working. Wich means most of the other systems for the other entities are mostly implamented now! #pico8 #gamedev #indiegamedev #indiegame #pixelart #umbragame

Still working on the next page of the comic for those interested, heres some (wip) shading progress! #comics #webcomics #art #digitalart

it doesnt look like much has changed but i ripped out all the old entity code for this levek and am redoing it to allow for new features to be added. Now it runs the same for half the tokens! Thanks to everyone on the discord for help! #pico8 #gamedev #indiegamedev #indiegame #pixelart #umbragame

Working on adding visible loss of blood stones to make death feel abit more punishing. Though this may be too many lol. It's still a bit token heavy, But I think I can get it to fit into the rest of the carts. lmk what you think! #pico8 #gamedev #indiegamedev #indiegame #pixelart #umbragame
