Was super motivated to start knocking out Player attacks for our #indiegame, #Amurial - then I saw the state of my code. Now I'm super motivated to refactor till dawn.

Spaghetti anyone?

Hey #gamers and #indiedevs - how are you? We are excited to share some progress on our #indiegame, #Amurial The Shadowed Worth! New player - 3/4 view. #gameanimation is looking good and a new club weapon! What do you think?

Hey #indiedev friends! We have been having fun working with #spine2d on some new #gameanimations for our #indiegame, #Amurial: The Shadowed Worth.

Maybe having too much fun!

What's the funniest thing you have done in Spine?

Hey #indiedev friends! Sharing some of the progress on our #indiegame, #Amurial: The Shadowed Worth!

We finished up our first enemy's #gameart and #gameanimation. Imported and set up a basic controller.

Still needs some polish, but we are really happy with how it came out. What do ya think?

Almost have this hooked up in the game! Excited to share, it looks really good so far!
Happy #WishlistWednesday to all our #indiegamedev friends!

Today we're excited to share progress on our #indiegame, #Amurial: The Shadowed Worth.

We have the N.W Facing #gameart completed. It's ready for #spine2d animation!

Me: I’m gonna keep this #indiegame simple. Just a chill little project.

Also me, 3 weeks later: “So the dialogue system dynamically reacts to moon phases and player blood type...”

Anyone else building a small game? 😂👇

Happy Friday #indiedev friends!

Just knocked out some #spine2d #gameanimation for our first enemy character.

This enemy is for our #indiegame #Amurial: The Shadowed Worth.

We experimented this week with frame by frame animation vs Spine animation. Thinking Spine won!

Can't wait to get this enemy fully into the game! LETS GOOO!!!
Hey #indiedev Friends!

Check out our #gameart process from our awesome artist, @ArtzyAbz!

What do you think about our final render for Enemy 1?

We got an enemy battle prototype complete. Player can die and respawn. the animations are temporary.

Probably going to switch to 3/4 view for player and enemies/NPCs. This saves some #animation effort!

Started prototyping enemy combat! Still need animation, but got a state machine set up and ready to go!

Wonder what this would look like on a Switch 2.

I like D the best, but C is pretty good too!

Which do you like best?
Which enemy color concept do you like best?

These are for our #indiegame #Amurial: The Shadowed Worth.

Planning on releasing on Switch 2 in the future, along with PC, PlayStation, XBox, and maybe even mobile!

Definitely starting to look like a feature! This bug is killer!
#Amurial: The Shadowed Worth – Dev Diary #47
Today’s quest: why do the torches in Scene A rave all night, but in Scene B they suddenly remember they left the stove on and vanish until I hit Alt + Enter?

Our artist put together a little intro for our #indiedev studio!

We are working on #Amurial: The Shadowed Worth. It's a game like #stardew and #valheim but with a deep, epic story and RPG elements.
