Game Development: A Prayer in a Dark Place

Postby jorb » Thu Feb 28, 2013 7:00 am

We've been developing, and here's what's new.

Churches. Build them. Chase darkness away. Beware that these will in time come to require upkeep in the form of regular masses to be effective, so don't go and build a million of them that you won't be able to support. The implementation is rough but functional.

The Lumberwoods now have a new creature in all forest types, just past the edge where civilization ends. Beware, the creature is fearsome.

Fields can now be built on dirt. Sorry for that.
Stuffed Marchhare better
Fyne Frock & Pants -> Embroidery & Silk

Update your clients, pl0x.

Enjoy!

Update info

New creature appears to be a derpy looking bird called an Argopelter

- they appear in flocks.
- aggressive.
- hides from tree's and throws stick at you
~_~ hard to fight, cant kill one

edit: it disappears suddenly when it doesn't have a tree in range? i think. Maybe it force him to fly away since it cant hit you.


It hits quite some damage and it's pretty random, ranging from 0.7 to 33.8. Since you can't see them in the tree (so it's hard) and due to my problem I recommend going around them for now

WOOT Church of Thor ....op
“In a room sit three great men, a king, a priest, and a rich man with his gold. Between them stands a sellsword, a little man of common birth and no great mind. Each of the great ones bids him slay the other two. So tell me—who lives and who dies?”
