✔️ DAMAGE MODIFIER CARDS ✔️ I defs did not realise just how strong these would be at a base level, they are going to have to be pretty rare/expensive! Reworked card stats with this, so cards run off a "Power" value #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiedev #unity3d

Slowly Starting to get the theme together... So far its been a bit hodge-podge, where I added things as I needed them, but it wasn't super cohesive Today, I replaced the normal ball with a potion Might lean into Alchemy, does that seem too safe? #gamedev #indiedev #programming

Fiddling with effects for card reward packs before you open em Glowy and wobbly #gamedev #indiedev #programming #unity3d

Rune system is go! Runes you play add effects into slots of your balls, these runes last for a single shot, the battle, or permanent for the whole run Got a lot of Rune ideas ready to code Also, chuckling at my old destroy card effect #gamedev #programming #gamedesign

What are those slots that have appeared on the cards, hmm? Getting back into working on this, its been a while, but I've done some thinking and I have a clearer idea on what I want to achieve! #gamedev #indiedev #programming #screenshotsaturday

ITS ALIVE!! The refactor is ALMOST finished! The trinket over on the left is loading a bomb into my magazine every time I hit 2 pegs (The same effect as the bomb card) Way OP, but what's gamedev without a little messin' around? #gamedev #indiedev #programming #unity3d

Someone suggested I make the ball bouncier by default, this might be an overcorrection but it DOES look better with more bounce Will need to test... Juiced the Multiplier a bit too! #gamedev #indiedev #programming #unity3d #roguelike #deckbuilder #games #gaming

Hey @mcspiky, love the stuffy, any chance you might post over on Bluesky as well? I followed you over there, but your account is empty I reckon your art would go gangbusters, big fan

Being sick is the worst, I've been trying to code, but I just cant concentrate and my brain feels like someone's just smooshing it I think I need to lay down... Have a photo of Pudding in lieu of dev work 🍮 #gamedev #indiedev #programming #unity3d #dog #corgi #puppy

Took some time getting my data structure for the saving down, but its doing what its meant to and levels are now flagged as completed! Oh yeah, it's all coming together... Best part, I'm sick as heck right now, go me! #indiedev #gamedev #programming #games #gaming #unity3d

Threw together a map concept tonight, wasn't too hard Kinda working it into the flow, I like the idea of not locking you into doing only one path of levels on a stage Maybe rewarding you if you full clear, not sure #gamedev #programming #indiedev #gamedesign

Implemented a Trinket last night! Its just under my deck on the left Its just a test one, but I had to sort out an event/listener system Trinkets are all going to be passive effects that buff you in random ways Woohoo #gamedev #indiedev #programming #unity3d

Lots of things changing all over the place in the game at the moment Mostly invisible things, refactoring and data management. But heres the character selector i've been working on. #gamedev #indiedev #programming #unity3d #roguelike #deckbuilder

I didn't realise how much this 2kb file would mean to me As someone who dislikes writing system-ey code, I'm so excited that my save stuff is working It only took like 3 days of brainstorming how, but I did it 🎉 #gamedev #indiedev #programming #unity3d #roguelike #deckbuilder

After implementing my deck saving system tonight, I thought i'd give myself a treat and fiddle with animating my witch Is she a jellyfish? Its possible! (But no, probably not...) (...unless?) #gamedev #indiedev #gameart #witch #characterdesign #roguelike #deckbuilder #pachinko

In this deck I have nothing but 10 regular balls With my changes tonight "boosters" now actually add to your deck, that persists through levels Also added a dumb little "restart" visual, which was mostly for me, haha, but I love it #gamedev #indiedev #programming #unity3d

I will continue to post over here, but the updates will be a bit less frequent I'm mostly posting over: bsky.app/profile/emdoodev.bs… A lot of the gamedev community has migrated there #gamedev #indiedev #programming #unity3d

I mean its PRETTY big I guess My refactors continue to clean up prototype code, allowing me to do stuff like this! While fixing things, you would not BELIEVE the bugs I've introduced, the price of progress! #indiedev #gamedev #programming #unity3d #roguelike #deckbuilder

Sometimes I have an idea that's just no good The Hit counter mirroring the direction of the ball from the camera? That's almost definitely one of those things 😂 #gamedev #indiedev #programming #unity3d #roguelike #deckbuilder

This refactor is sending me insane Everything is currently broken and terrible, but the modularity of the system when its finished will be a 10/10 In the meantime, have a pic of Pudding in the bath 🍮 #gamedev #indiedev #programming #roguelike #deckbuilder #dog #corgi
