This week, we’re taking shelter from the spooky forest inside some buildings! Vilya has been busy creating the cozy, candy filled house of the witch, as well as a substantially less picturesque abandoned house…

Fred has mainly been busy with cleaning up all of the basic attack animations for all of the enemies. Here’s a sample of this week’s workload in form of everyone’s favorite flying pumpkin wizard, the Jack O’ Lantern:
We’ve also been working on getting some lighting going to boost the atmosphere in the forest, and after some sweet feedback from Reddit, this is what it looks like at the moment (click it!):
If you have any feedback, don’t hesitate to make a noise in the comments! :)
Next Week: Hurr durr ‘loween
Nice and moody! I hope there will be some treats that have razorblades in them.
Even though I already presume that this is going to be in the game, I’ll phrase it as an enthustiastic statement instead as to not sound silly. Area-themed flavor equipment is going to be fun to muck about with!
Or was that sillier?
Tis looking great guys. The lighting effects really add to the mood. Can’t wait to actually get into the world and experience it first hand!
Everything is looking awesome as per usual. I agree with Gauss Jordan, having some green glows would make the area seem a lot more eerie :)
Quick question: Will there be voice chat available in the game? I was just thinking that it might be a bit inconvenient for those using controllers to keep swapping between controller and keyboard just to chat (although, obviously it wouldn’t be too difficult too use another piece of software for voice chat).
it would be nicer if there are little sorcerer kids as sidekicks :D this is gonna be the coolest game ever. can’t wait.
and oh, some enviroment interaction would be fun.

@Gauss Green lighting, huh? We’ll have to play around with that!

@Adam Thanks dude! There won’t be any built in voice chat, since as you mention there are other services that do this better than we could, including the inbuilt Steam voice-chat!
@Keith You can smash a lot of things in the game. As far as sidekicks go, we’ll have pets! :)
It’s looking so nice! <3 <3
I think you should add some halloweenish green light details too.
Good luck for next week. Looking forward to some gooood Hurr durr ;)
