Hi guys!
Game development is a complex process, full of ever-changing design ideas, tweaking, testing, and improving. Recently we’ve sat down and redesigned one of the main sights you’ll see on your screens - the stage where your performers face the audience (otherwise known as: the battle arena).
Up until now the artists were facing left, towards the audience. It was a satisfying sight - the opponents are on the left and our artists on the right have to avoid their attacks. However, recently we’ve decided to flip it and place the audience on the right and our performers on the left. It’s different, but we like it:) This change creates a familiar vibe and feeling well-known from games since the first Mario - the main hero progresses moving in the right (literally) direction.
Of course, in our game, the characters don’t move physically. However, the new angle feels more intuitive, and it’s a design choice similar to those in some other card games and roguelikes.
We’re pretty satisfied with this decision and we really hope you, too, will like this - again, literally - new direction we’ve chosen!
Hope you like it!
