So now that we have launched the game in a late beta state, you're probably all wondering, "Where do we go from here?"
Well, first of all we want to focus on making the gameplay more fun and varied. All you're currently doing is pointing and whacking things, after all. While there are plenty of things to beat around, it does get pretty old after a while. Here are our current plans for the near future!
DASHING
The player will be given the ability to make a quick dash in any direction. This gives you more mobility for dodging attacks and maneuvering around monsters, and it can also be used to move around faster. Of course, why does only the player get to dash? That isn't fair!
Fear not; many monsters will also be getting this ability! Each monster who can dash will utilize dashing maneuvers in different ways. Whether to get closer to the player, hop to the other side of the player, or dodge attacks, monsters will be far trickier to deal with.
MONSTER ARENAS
Running around flipping switches in dungeons can be boring. Here is something that will fix that: monster arenas. Some switches will spawn in special room layouts. When one of these switches is flipped, you will be blocked into the room and enemies will spawn in waves. Defeat all monsters to open the way out, as well as the colored gate that the switch was connected to. Previously you only fought bosses in enclosed spaces, but not anymore! With limited mobility, you will need to think a bit differently to survive in these arenas.
MORE ELITE ELEMENTALS
Currently there are 3 different Elite Elementals in the game. Elite Elementals are stronger versions of normal monsters with additional abilities, such as creating walls of fire or surrounding themselves with pools of water. As of right now these monsters only appear in the mode Earth Unleashed. We would like to bring Elite Elementals to the normal game mode as well while keeping them as a differing factor in Earth Unleashed. It has been decided to create 3 more Elite Elementals, totaling the amount to 6. All 6 Elite Elementals will appear in Earth Unleashed, while only half of them are selected to appear in the main game mode every run.
We have more ideas behind the scenes. If you have suggestions, feel free to share! We take into consideration all feedback!
