Hello everyone!

Just letting you know that I am now running my dev blog on TIGSource forums (https://forums.tigsource.com/index.php?topic=65119.0) - so  expect further updates to be posted there.

Cheers!

Steampunk XCom devlog: May 2018

So much has changed since the initial "Twin Demon Slayers" game (made for a game jam), that was the origin of all this.

First of all, I will stop using the original game title from the jam. The current game evolved into something much more than its original. One thing remained contstant thou…

Twin Demon Slayers: more XCom-ish look!

I spent some time on altering the visuals in general, to make the things look nicer and more clean. Basically I tried to reproduce the look and feel from XCom games.

First of all, I've changed the way HPs are displayed - from hearts to rectangles. Player characters use blue color, enemies - …

Twin Demon Slayers: cover display

Hello there!

I've been busy implementing the display of cover status. Basically I used the similar approach that XCOM uses: three types of shields (full, half-full, empty) indicating three types of cover, plus a yellow shield if a character is flanked. Here's the final result:

You mi…

Twin Demon Slayers: post-jam progress

Hello there!

So obviously I have submitted my game to the jam. I even changed the title slightly again (added the "Twin" word), because I can!

Anyway, the cover mechanics that I started working on during the jam looks pretty interesting, so I decided to progress further with this idea, e…

    7DRL 2018: Demon Slayers, day 1

    So yeah, I basically needed a name for my game for the jam. The original was called "1 Room Demon Slayer", as it was created for the 1 room rpg jam. So now I've removed the "1 room" part. And as there will be two player characters, the "Slayer" part got renamed into "Slayers". Mind. Blown.
