changedIndie Game Development - Level Hard: Multitasking LordsThe final bosses of the levels “Flower of Lirolay” and “The Virgin and the Cherufe'' are almost complete. The latter is probably one of our favorite final bosses: the Cherufe is a reptilian volcanic demon who feasts on virgins. Sounds like a charming dude, right? Well, he’s not! He’s likely to be the hardest final boss in the whole game.
addedIndie Game Development - Level Hard: Multitasking LordsWe’re testing new game mechanics for two levels: Talisman and Cherufe (for short). As you may know by now, we’re an ambitious bunch. We want the player to experience something different in terms of play in every level, and to take something with them after every level. Thus, each level has a different mechanic or a special something the other levels don’t have.
addedIndie Game Development - Level Hard: Multitasking LordsThe Aya Huma level is finished! There are still some details to polish, as well as the battle with the final boss, but we’re right on track! It was exciting to be able to develop Ecuador’s very own folktale. The team has added some Easter Eggs to the level, some hidden goodies, which may be hard to find for those who are not very familiar with Ecuadorian culture. Still, it was a fun task! It’s also one of the most detailed levels.
addedExtra Guardian of Lore Updates and GoodiesOf course, there’s more, guys, don’t fret! So, what else is new? As usual, we’ve added more particle effects that look SICK (yeah, we’re shouting). Our boy Josh, the ex-intern turned fully-fledged Round2Games team member, has been handling these types of effects. Check out his awesome work!
addedExtra Guardian of Lore Updates and GoodiesThere also are new sound effects! In this regard, we’re ecstatic to announce that… *drum roll* Guardian of Lore’s first-ever track

Guardian of Lore In-Game Updates
Indie Game Development - Level Hard: Multitasking Lords
At the Round2Games headquarters - now, our own homes! Totally unthinkable a few months ago -, it’s all work and all play! There are no dull boys in our dev team, that’s for sure. We are working on several levels at a time, which keeps us on our toes as well as fully entertained. When you spend every day doing what you love, work hardly feels like a chore.
Well, then, what Guardian of Lore levels are we working on? What changes and updates have we implemented this past month?
We are reaching the final instances in the development of the level called “The Marvelous Talisman”. This Quechua folktale revolves around… well, you guessed correctly… a marvelous talisman. What’s the deal with this amulet? Well, we can’t say yet, sorry folks! It’s classified info. What we can share is that this level is unlike any other we have developed so far. There’s no final boss, for starters, and it ends on a weird note. Why? That’s classified too. You’ll have to play it to find out ;)
