Hey friend, how have you been?
The last month for Roundguard has been a lot of balancing tweaks, tutorial rework, and bug bug bug fixing. Not the most exciting stuff to talk about, but it's so nice to feel it all coming together. On the art side, I finished a pass on every last monster and fixed up a bunch of UI. But enough words, let's see some pictures!
Here's a sneak peek of the ettin. I'm going to be animating him on my Twitch channel today -- like, probably right now! Come by and ask me for my ettin impression.
After a year of ignoring it, we finally did a rework of the opening UI flow. Major thanks to Aeos for the great feedback / therapy session while I worked out the character select screen on stream. UI, man, it takes a village.
Flagon's healing skill got a rebrand to Gold Lust...
And for those of you who were worried, the "round" books are gone. No more do you have to wonder if they're actually clam shells or toilet seats. What was a misguided attempt at world-building has been corrected. They're square books now. Just books.
Oh, is it May already? Guess what? We've got some events this month! Come by for a high five!
iFest -- Seattle -- May 4
PG Connects -- Seattle -- May 13-14
🍑Momocon🍑 -- Atlanta -- May 23-26
And one more at the very end of the month that we can't talk about yet... 😬 They said the announcement will probably go out next week, so I'll be sure to share it first on the Roundguard Discord.
Talk again soon!
