Hello dear mortals,
hope you all are doing good, this month of March has been a bit hectic on our side, the Coronavirus pandemic came and, as with many other people, impacted our daily lives, luckily we are all healthy and taking the recommended hygienic and distance measures while we keep the quarantine.
Here follows the more remarkable progresses done during this month of Dungeon Crowley development:
- We have been working on our main door model, it was designed to easily transmit progress info to the player. It can be found all over the place in dungeons.
- Currently working on the blocking behavior in some enemies so we improve the combat dynamics and their pace.
Now, the enemies switch to defense mode, and stays for 2-3 secs.
Do you have any tips on how the player could break that defense?
- We are working on an early prototype of the new-coming Hod Dungeon.
Hod is the 8th sephirah of the Kabbalistic tree of life. Its color is orange and there ideas are worked on by facts and not by feelings, so we look for a more robust and warm dungeon design.
- Finally, we would like to present a short introduction on the relationship with the Thoth tarot and the Kabbalistic Tree of life on which Dungeon Crowley's game design is firmly based upon.
Joining those two distinct views of the universe was a continuous work developed over years amongst great minds, but we can extrapolate to say that the ultimate convergence of these [before opposite concepts], was conceived by Mr. Aleister Crowley and painted by Lady Frieda Harris, creating a set of archetypes known as the Thoth Tarot.
In our dual existence we trend to naturally stipulate antagonistic concepts, love and hate, heat and cold, but the Universe doesn't differentiate those:
"Learn now that Impressions of Sense have Opposites readily conceived, as long to short, or light to dark; and so with Emotions and Perceptions, as Love to Hate, or False to True; but the more Violent the Antagonism, the more is it bound in Illusion, determined by Relation."
Happy reading: https://www.tarotica.net/tarot--the-tree-of-life.html
Stay tuned for more news, and above all, stay safe!
