Any suggestions on how to make the librarian glasses look more like cat-eyed glasses instead of a mask? I'm struggling 🫠

I think it's interesting to think of encounters as not only combat. Much like in tabletop, you can give XP/loot for resolving visible encounters by avoiding them. And scripted encounters can feel random to the player while maintaining control over XP without being too disruptive of exploration.

And the second one go over the more than 20 fixes and updates I made: studio-carmim.itch.io/ardent-flame... Some of them are simble bug fixes, while others fix mechanics that I had written in the MAMP rulebook but never fully implemented in game, like reactions!

Thanks for hosting #TurnBasedThursday ! Ardent Flame Lucia is a JRPG-like game with a custom TTRPG system running and a combat log to check all rolls! Still very much a work in progress, but you can battle, level up, and change gear in the current demo. studio-carmim.itch.io/ardent-flame...

Yeah fair point!! Specially with the menus (inventory, party config, etc) I want to look for more recent stuff and PC games. I was used old RPG conventions, but now that this is a mouse-first game, the UI should match this type of input. Need to steal ideas from BG3 and stuff 😅

Studio Carmim - Ardent Flame Lucia and the Accursed Mist @studiocarmim.com · 21/09/2026
Thank you!! Means a lot, I do love your UI work! And yeah, it is very daunting... I found that designing it in Figma and then putting it on Godot worked well for this style. It's an extra step, but building in godot directly without a reference was not working for me

Studio Carmim - Ardent Flame Lucia and the Accursed Mist @studiocarmim.com · 21/09/2026
A little bit! Mostly the text and content, I redid the action tooltips and combat log to have cleaner and less cluttered info, and standardized text formatting since it was all over the place 😅 still working on it tho!

Studio Carmim - Ardent Flame Lucia and the Accursed Mist @studiocarmim.com · 21/09/2026
One thing I wanted to have in my game since day one was the equipment showing during combat, and I'm pretty close to having it! I still need to clean up the animation frames and sync it with audio, but hopefully by then end of the week it will be out in the demo 😊 #gamedev

Looks great! Repeating water textures are so hard.... Also I saw you mentioned about the blur: I export with max scaling on aseprite and that seems to be the only way to avoid it, like 1000% or something like that.

i made my own monster line for a collab!! meet isoscelestial, tetrahedragirl, and datenshivega! lore for each in alt text!! 32x32, 48x48, 64x64! #ドット絵 #pixelart #kiwiheart10 #digifake
pixel art on a 160x144 canvas using 4 colors from my kiwiheart10 palette!! shown are three of my monster designs:

isoscelestial
observer type
she mysteriously appears on landias that yearn for observation. she uses her blade only for self-defense.

isoscelestial looks like a tetrahedron with eyes and a mouth, a halo on one side, and a floating blade on the other!
ーー
tetrahedragirl
wanderer type
she wanders the landias in search of her true reason. her blade has severed at least 7 lives.

tetrahedragirl is a tetrahedron with one eye and two arms and two legs and a humanoid head with a black halo over it that glows red within! she wields a blade!
ーー
datenshivega
protector type
she has found her truth. she is the sole witness and protector of those who had nobody.

datenshivega is a girl with long red hair and a black streak over her eyes that wields a broken red and black halo and a sword, with tetrahedrons for legs!

my first time to make my own digifake / fakemon, it was so fun fun!!

Studio Carmim - Ardent Flame Lucia and the Accursed Mist @studiocarmim.com · 15/09/2026
I also updated the text formatting and colors for the Tooltips, as well as revamped the entries themselves so you have less redundant and more readable information showing up! Since I still don't have the system rules in the demo, at least you can check the action rules during combat now.

Studio Carmim - Ardent Flame Lucia and the Accursed Mist @studiocarmim.com · 15/09/2026
Most of the work went into updating the Battle Log. I not only fully reworded each action and how it showed in the log, but also made a Simplified and a Verbose version that you can toggle during combat! I think it looks pretty neat.

No it was actually very intuitive to pick up. The only thing that was a bit hard is that I had some text missing, but it's not your fault lol I'm running on linux and for some reason just running directly though wine it seems some text did not load properly. But other than that it was nice!

I'm excited about rolling out an update on the the Combat Log and adjustments to text content and formatting throughout the demo. Trying to keep it clean and readable, with enough formatting and color coding but trying not to overdo it. Let's see, I hope I can release it by tomorrow!
