Games Kingsblood - Tactical Indie RPG

Kingsblood is a tactical indie RPG in the making. What started out as a dream slowly seems to become reality. We began this journy in April 2020 without any prior unity knowledge but have now implemented most of the core mechanics. Still, a lot of polishing, content and exhausting hours left - but we are closing in to a playable product.

So, one more week has passed. Got a lot of progress. We integrated pathfinding and glued together our worldmap and combat pipeline:

 

Hey there. Once again we made a huge leap forward i think . We now integrated a random item generator as well as some fun backgrounds for our fighting scenes. Hope you like it .

 

All right, our newest vlog. We added tonnes of mechanics. For instance a motivation system for forming your group or the capability to recruit new fellows (in this case a witch!)

 

Coming along very fast!

 

Yes, it's evolving well!
Not a fan of the UI (yet), but I guess that's something subject to change?
I love the bearded ginger dude's face, the "why did you chop off my hand??!" expression
The map too is pretty neat.

 

Hey thank's a lot. The UI is supposed to change- At least the general one! - also the dude has a rough time :>...indeed

 

Hey there, and once again a bit update. This time we started out with the construction system:

 

And out next Vlog. This week we tried to get some structure into handling our animations. Also set up a notification and invasion system:

 

So this week we implemented a first draft for our research / tech tree system. Aside from that stationary enemies as well as some improvements for the combat system:

 

Hey there,

one more week with some updates!

Also we created a 2 minute video describing what our game is actually about and how the game will flow and play out:

 

Implemented our first couple of questlines

 

Amazing job, congratz dude. I like so much!

 

Interesting, looks great ! Keep up the good work

 

Hey thank you so much . Very appreciated!

 

Alright, this week we finally added the sound system - so the combat should be much more alife!

 

This week we added a couple cool combat mechanics. Now our heroes can summon creatures and shapeshift!

 

Finally found a cool pipeline for creating halflings and dwarves

 

Finally added the assassin-jump mechanic + triggerable special effects

 

Just implemented a buffing system and the combat UI got a bit of an overhaul

 

This week, after a lot of effort which went into our combat system, we dedicated some time into improving mechanis as well as looks on the worldmap.

 

Probably the biggest update we had in a while. Within this update we created a comprehensive character UI and also interconnected it with our website (www.kingsblood.net):

 

Discussing the concept of souls and all related gamedesign ideas in that regard within our newest devlog

 

In this episode, we tried to find a good solution for giving light in our combat scenes (still work in progress)

 

In this week we tried to design our leveling system. For this we needed art which we created based on neural networks and utilizing artifical intelligence .

 

This week, we finally progressed with our motivation system

 

In this devlog we showed how we created a char from zero to final product.

 

Implemented a market

 

Used shader graph to create a cool pulsating blood effect

 

In this episode we gave our main UI a complete face lift

 

We started creating a house for our heroes

 

2020 comes to an end! In this pretty extensive lookack i go into detail about most things we have accomplished. Pretty exhausting but worth every minute!

 

Some visuals for our housing/construction system

 

In this devlog we talk about the first iteration of our dungeon system

 

Kept polishing up the character progression system:

 

This week we put work into completly redesigning the deployment of monsters:

 

This week, i wanted to give a little bit of insights into some minor but cool things we changed. Some "beauty" stuff / polishing and also a cool new mechanic including obstacles in combat.

 

Honestly my favorit video so far! Some more updates to our dungeon system! Really stoked about how it is going!

 

We implemented a very cool world expansion system. Getting closer to our "minimal loving product" - basically our first playable demo!

 

This week we introduce a new way how we create combat scenes: Biomes

 

Added one more dark and sinister Biome

 

Raised some cool looking mountains

 

It has been more than half a year since we updated our channel intro. So if you want to know most facts about our game in less then 2 minutes, than don't miss this video .

I also edited the initial post and added some links to our social media etc. ;F.

 

Finally! We finished up the soul system and explain it in this devlog.

 

Just a short video about our newest biome . Was bit sick - still - i like it. Have fun

 

Once again a somewhat shorter video. This time we revisited our city selection mechanics

 

Fixed the issues of last week. The city selection system can be considered final now i guess

 

Some updates towards our dungeon system!

 

This is how we drastically improved our dungeon UI

 

Bit unusual and not so much about the game progress but more about how we, or rather, I stay motivated during this journay of creating a game:
