- Devlog #6 - Player Auto Attack & First Enemy - 30 April 2026
This week we focused on two important gameplay foundations - player auto attack and our very first enemy. How does the player’s attack work? We’ve implemented the first version of the player auto attack. From now on, your hero can automatically attack nearby enemies. Enemies don’t deal damage yet - but that’s coming soon for now, they serve as targets for the auto attack system. Our goal is to make combat feel smooth and responsive, while still giving you control over priorities and character behavior. Your character detects an enemy, moves into a defined range (depending on whether it’s a melee class or ranged), and attacks. In the future, we’ll expand this with more advanced logic, targeting rules, skill interactions, and animations. First Enemy - “Cube” We’ve also introduced our first test enemy. At this stage, it’s a simple prototype that allows us to test: enemy targetingtaking dam…
- Devlog #5 - More Characters, More Spells, Real Server Test - 24 April 2026
Hello there!This week was a big step toward a real multiplayer experience.We tested using spells with a larger number of characters at the same time, and also increased the number of players present on the map. Each character was still handled individually, but now everyone existed on the same server, which made the whole experience feel much more like an actual game session :DWe set up a server and connected to it with a few people to see how it works in practice. You could say this was our first “real” multiplayer test and… it worked ^^Of course, there’s still a lot of work ahead of us, but this test gave us a solid foundation to build on. Would you like us to introduce anything specific along the way for the first multiplayer version planned for May/June? 🤔If you haven’t added the game to your wishlist yet, you can do it here:That’s it for today 🫡 See you in the next devlog!~Tom
- Devlog #4 - Spells & Real-Time Animations - 17 April 2026
Hello guys! This week we focused on expanding multiplayer interactions and improving our animation workflow.You can now use abilities like Fireball and various buffs together with other players, and most importantly - you can actually see what others are casting in real time. This makes the whole experience feel much more alive and dynamic :DWe also wanted to show how we approach animations.Instead of relying on a static workflow, we built a system that allows us to tweak animations in real time. We can adjust timing, positioning, and the overall feel on the fly - and instantly see the results in-game.This gives us much more control and removes a lot of the usual guesswork. No more constant exporting and rechecking - we can dial things in exactly how we want, much faster.Are there any spells you’d like to see first?Personally, I’d love something like an “ice rain” spell - but that’s jus…
- Devlog #3 - Networked animations are in! - 10 April 2026
Hey there!This week we focused on building the foundations of our networked animation system!Instead of syncing full animations over the network, we’re sending only actions (like casting a spell or attacking), and each client plays the animation locally. This approach keeps everything synchronized while significantly reducing network load.On top of that, we’ve added the first version of spell animations visible to other players!What you do is no longer just local - now everyone can actually see your actions in the world.This is an important step toward making the game feel more alive and responsive in multiplayer.More improvements coming soon!If you haven’t added the game to your wishlist yet, you can do it here: That’s it for today 🫡 See you in the next devlog!~Tom
