"Optimize equipment" usually focuses on defense How about optimize it for full offense? #gamedev #ScarletRecord #緋色の記録

It's a bit late but we're playtesting the new demo build and well, there's a lot to iron out before we can release it. Since that also means we can add a few things into the demo as well as a prototype for what comes next.

Reshaping the early chapters after many changes have been implemented (mostly are behind-the-curtains changes) #ScarletRecord #緋色の記録 #indiedev #indiegame

A small fix around barriers. Beryl's barrier caused Hazel (with her shield fully charged) to be way too tanky during troubleshooting last week. Also, added a few more small things, like the portrait shake on taking damage or heal. #ScarletRecord #緋色の記録 #indiegame #gamedev

Added some little movements on small things, the likes of summons and satellites like this Beryl's brand new sparkling bubble. It moves in sync with all of Beryl's spells too! #ScarletRecord #緋色の記録 #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame

It's been past due but the better battle board is now here. It has a clearer target indicator, and it's now more well-aligned with the background (also we tried a different background for this test. It's quite warm down here) #ScarletRecord #緋色の記録 #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame

A few revamps on the action system, especially how cover works. This time, anyone (in this case, Beryl) can take cover behind Hazel who acts like a wall in this game #ScarletRecord #緋色の記録 #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame

Conditional Turn 0 action Beryl's presence triggered "Turn 0 action" which in this case, the book fella summons a few magic tomes for extra ether bombardment Would make a great gauntlet scenario material #ScarletRecord #緋色の記録 #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame

Leveling/ranking up and unlocking perks and equip slot are now tied to the only currency that fairies would accept: ether shard. Fairies' services are not free! #screenshotsaturday #ScarletRecord #緋色の記録 #IndieGameDev #gamedev #ゲーム制作 #ゲーム開発 #pixelart #ドット絵

Tinkering around damage popup, now it can show damage type and elemental affinity of the attacks. Negative affinity should be more washed out but at least the idea is proven. #ScarletRecord #緋色の記録 #IndieGameDev #gamedev #ゲーム制作 #ゲーム開発 #pixelart #ドット絵

Working on projectiles as well as other stuff in the background. Indeed, Ruby's quill can turn into a powerful golden arrow and she has full control of it. #screenshotsaturday #ScarletRecord #緋色の記録 #IndieGameDev #gamedev #pixelart #ドット絵

Field item test, this time featuring their favorite device: (placeholder) barrel bombs. 💣 It can be detonated safely with ranged attack, or like in this clip below. #screenshotsaturday #indiedev #gamedev #ゲーム制作 #ゲーム開発 #pixelart #ドット絵

Utility skills come in many shapes, including a simple kick that can be used as a combo setup. Talk about a kickstart. #IndieGameDev #gamedev #pixelart #ドット絵

Amber's Charge Slash (working title) is designed to deal a lot of damage in one swing... sometimes. Her poor hit accuracy may give various results. #screenshotsaturday #ScarletRecord #緋色の記録 #IndieGameDev #gamedev #ゲーム制作 #ゲーム開発 #pixelart #ドット絵

The ingredients to our game: - Old school top-down JRPG, revamped - Late 90's style audiovisual (some would say retro) - Visual Novel elements - MMBN + Radiant Historia inspired combat system - Meaty, impactful animations - Uhhh... oh right, pretty girls!

No discernable progress this week. At least we've figured out what we wanna do with her sprite #screenshotsaturday #ScarletRecord #緋色の記録 #pixelart #ドット絵

Recap of Hazel's built-in close-range counterattack ability (without several VFXs) Very useful to keep her enemies in check! #screenshotsaturday #ScarletRecord #緋色の記録 #IndieGameDev #gamedev #ゲーム制作 #ゲーム開発 #pixelart #ドット絵

Taking a break from combat-related stuff. This week we're helping Fee setting up her shop. She's a honest merchant despite her... demeanors which is truly asking for a correction. #screenshotsaturday #ScarletRecord #indiedev #gamedev #ゲーム開発

Cropped screenshot of Fee, the fairy mechant

Selling items UI with Fee's different expression

Fee will make that expression everytime you leave her shop without buying anything.

Enemy summon test, this time it's a Repair Limpet that can spend its own HP to heal its nearby allies. Taking it down first may prevent prolonged combat. #screenshotsaturday #ScarletRecord #indiedev #gamedev #ゲーム開発

Improved barrier system. Now it can nullify incoming damage and can only removed by certain attack type. This can lead to more barrier-related mechanics in near future, it seems. #screenshotsaturday #ScarletRecord #indiedev #gamedev #ゲーム開発

Ruby's Mystical Gust caused some misaligned behaviors on those drones. Works as intended, but still need some more adjustments. #screenshotsaturday #ScarletRecord #indiedev #gamedev #ゲーム開発 #pixelart #ドット絵

Added steam vent on Hazel's armaments whenever she performs certain actions. As a steam-powered equipment aficionado, this is just appropriate. #screenshotsaturday #ScarletRecord #indiedev #gamedev #ゲーム開発 #pixelart #ドット絵

< When the same status effect works different on yourself > Beryl's Bubble Blight status effect when applied on herself grants damage reduction and evasion bonus instead of amplifying damage taken. Everyone seems bubbly now, eh? #ScarletRecord #gamedev

Omniguard counterattack test Deflecting a melee attack may trigger Bunker Buster counterattack. Might need a limiter to balance it out... #ScarletRecord #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev

An experiment on Beryl's Mini-Lens. Probably too powerful when combined with Bubble Lens? #ScarletRecord #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev

Some treasure nodes may contain some... surprises. This is going to be a theme in later chapters. #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev #ScarletRecord
