...freetime, lol. I currently have the basics of a combat system in. Enough to give me something to play with, but not enough to feel interesting or in-depth. It currently supports the basic melee attack, healing, various types of experience points, player and enemy leveling, destructibles, and of course it is also driven by a big data table. :) I am currently working on enemy AI and then I will go back to combat and start that intricate dance between the two.

Should have probably started with this, but a simple movement system is in. I have a lot of things I want to add, but for now it supports walking, jumping, falling (normal, stunning, and killing) and climbing ladders.

It is a combo of art I made, free content, and purchased content. I am mostly working on the systems needed to make the game. Future blogs will show some of the systems and then more about the game itself as it unfolds. Hope you enjoy the journey. Game is made in Unreal 5.8 using
