changedThe attack animation is finally in the game – and you can instantly feel the difference. The character finally looks alive, and combat actually feels like a fight. Movement, timing, and enemy reactions are all starting to click together into one cohesive experience.
changedFirst Spells: Bringing the Heat
changedWe also threw in our first spell - the good old Fireball ☄️. A burning projectile flying straight at the enemy? Yes please. It’s a simple addition, but it immediately makes everything look way more exciting and dynamic.
addedEnemies don’t just stand there anymore either - they now have death animations, which means fights finally have a proper finish.
changedOn top of that, we’ve set up the first version of the skill system. Abilities trigger automatically, and you can already see how the rhythm of combat starts forming as skills interact with each other.

The Feeling of Combat

The attack animation is finally in the game – and you can instantly feel the difference. The character finally looks alive, and combat actually feels like a fight. Movement, timing, and enemy reactions are all starting to click together into one cohesive experience.

First Spells: Bringing the Heat

We also threw in our first spell - the good old Fireball ☄️. A burning projectile flying straight at the enemy? Yes please. It’s a simple addition, but it immediately makes everything look way more exciting and dynamic.

Finish Them!

Enemies don’t just stand there anymore either - they now have death animations, which means fights finally have a proper finish.

Attack, impact, reaction, down. Seeing a full encounter play out from start to end just feels right.

The Skill System v1

On top of that, we’ve set up the first version of the skill system. Abilities trigger automatically, and you can already see how the rhythm of combat starts forming as skills interact with each other.
