the first half to implementing the actionball mechanic:
the actionball allows you to choose additional battle actions

#gamedev #concept #indiegame #twine
i have chosen realtime battle for #twine, but i would really like the player to have some additional options during battle (like in undertales round based battle system).
so i'm toying with this actionball concept.
anyone know of a similar concept in other games?

the combo indicator in action - managed to get to 7 but only by adjusting the tolerance to 300ms - this path of the game will need better gamers than myself!

tiny #font for small UI indicators. the numbers are only 2x4 pixels to fit the space i have for the combo step counter you really may need to squint a little for this one
