Battle Gem Ponies DevLog #42 (Donations & Swapping Hats)

     Sprite season is over and it's time to make some more tangible progress. I'm planning to wake up earlier and work faster to get closer to the next public build. Time to put on my coding hat and get my capstone project wrapped up. Once I do I can fix up the BGP battle calculations and release another demo by my birthday, October 28th.

Time is ticking away! Let's go!

BGP Battle Items (Part 1/3)

The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
(I have no relevant pictures for this post)

     BGP features 75 different Battle Items that you can equip to your equine and get a competitive edge in battle. They compensate weaknesses, boost strength, and can even throw wildcards at your opponent's face. Going in alphabetical order, I'll be listing off the combat items you can use in Battle Gem Ponies over the weeks 25 at a time. The game is still in development, so like everything else, things are subject to change. Especially when time comes to start balancing. (Part 2, Part 3)

Battle Gem Ponies DevLog #41 (Human Sprites & RoShambo Updates)

     As we enter into October game development time becomes clearer. At a steady work pace I should have 2 demos out by Christmas. Nearly all my NPC sprites exist and 8 of them are fully animated. That means I can get to work on the overworld this weekend and animate the other sprites later. This game is coming together piece-by-piece.

I'm all hyped up on gamedev lately! Find out what's been fueling my personal hype below!

Battle Gem Ponies: Fire Class Moves

     Battle Gem Ponies would be a snorefest if it weren't for the awesome moves your pony can learn! Whenever there isn't any new feature to report, expect to see blog posts like this that show off all the cool stuff in the game. Whether it be a set of items, attacks, or information about a town.

     Hopefully these will keep things interesting for you guys while I chip away at the game behind the scenes. To kick things off, we'll be covering Fire class moves. There's quite a few moves for some classes, so I'll be splitting larger posts into 2 equal parts.

Check out some killer Fire Attacks below!
