I've been so busy with Sock it and other things that I haven't been posting much about it. But I am working on it! And I think I'm at around 75% completion with the campaign as a whole, although there are some other things I want to do as well. Extra challenges for fights? A reward for doing them? Maybe even workshop support? I'll worry about those things when I get there, but I think they're all feasible!
Hopefully you've played the demo, but let's take a look at some stuff that's in the pipeline!
I'll just share 3 of the bosses from the fights I've worked on so far for now:
Here's Vort. He's an actor from Pluto. He also has a shield you have to hit around, and he can also flip the gravity of the stage.
The Trio of Triumph (Gladilade, Leozod, and Garold) are a much more challenging fight. While you mainly attack Gladilade in the middle, her fellow larpers attack from the sides, and even throw potions. Maybe you can steal them?
Finally, here's the fight I'm currently working on, a bit of an homage. Glass Cannon is a placeholder, I have not made enemy sprites yet. I wonder what kind of opponent will show up...
As for the cutscenes, there's a lot in store for Mike and Ashley. Here is them walking through a park.
And here is a pizza place
And here is Ashley practicing the ill advised habit of tilting in her chair. Bad Ashley. You'll fall and hurt yourself.
Lots of comedic writing went into these, you'll have to watch the cutscenes on your own time.
And finally, the running stages. There's two more that are pretty much done besides the one in the demo.
One is in a forest of some sort...
And another is, well... It's in a variety of places. What cruel machinations could be in this factory?
I'm also planning a short form dev log series to cover stuff I've made so far. If you haven't, you should check out my Youtube channel to be ready for that.
Also, if you want more stuff like this, check out the Discord channel! I post stuff there a lot!
