I'm putting monthly builds for #Gryptic on hold for a while so that I can do a major refactor. Billing is suspended on my Patreon until the next build is ready for closed testing, but I'll still try to share some previews here and there while I'm working. #gamedev #indiegames #godotengine
New update to the Gryptic Public Prototype is finally out! This patch adds bottomless procedural dungeons and RPG mechanics to the game, along with some new items and interactions.
Download the game here: trashwizz.itch.io/gryptic-publ...

Been working on a monster to replace the placeholder enemies in #Gryptic for the next patch. Haven’t finished drawing the legs yet so you can see some of the under-sketch still. These will be shambling around in the first few floors of the dungeon.
#pixelart #gamedev #indiegames #dungeoncrawlers
Making solid progress on the level-up system for #Gryptic, however some performance issues in the last patch need to be addressed before the next update to the public prototype. Details here: www.patreon.com/posts/progre...

In the Bottomless Dungeon update, the game proudly displays what floor of the dungeon you died on :) This update will be added to the public prototype on October 24th, but it is live now on my patreon for Patron + supporters and above. #Gryptic #gamedev #indiegames #dungeoncrawler #godotengine
Tomorrow’s private prototype update is shaping up nicely! The proc gen system is now correctly adding light sources and enemy encounters. I have a few more hours to try to squeeze in some additional content 🤓 #gryptic #godotengine #gamedev #indiegames #dungeoncrawler
Starting to work on spawning decor and encounters in the proc gen system now. I may even make a pass at replacing the placeholder enemy with something a little less goofy. Either way the next private prototype update will be a major leap forward for #Gryptic
#gamedev #indiegames
I think I might have found a bug in my procedural generation script...
#Gryptic #gamedev #godotengine #bugreport
Wrapped up the biggest parts of the procedural level generation code today! Still need to set up some tests, but I’m currently on-track to include a bottomless dungeon in my next patch 🤓

The public version of the #Gryptic prototype is now live for everyone on itch io! I'd love to get some feedback while I work on the next update, so would you be willing to give it a try?

The private version of the #Gryptic prototype is now live for my Patron+ level supporters! I’m planning to release the public version on September 26th for anyone else who is interested in playing and providing some feedback. Exciting!
#godotengine #gamedev #indiegames #videogames #dungeoncrawler
I’ve got an early prototype build now! There are definitely a few tweaks I want to make next week before my first closed play-test, but I’m really proud of what I’ve put together so far!
#Gryptic #godotengine #gamedev #indiegames #videogames
For folks that want to see the #Gryptic prototype preview without needing to navigate to some other site, here's the clip! I'm planning to release a public play-test build of the prototype on September 26th! (Patron+ supporters will get it early)
#gamedev #indiegames #godotengine #videogames

I'm back to streaming! Starting tonight I'm returning to my 5pm to 7pm EST time block. I've been working on the entrance of the ruins, which will serve as the tutorial for #Gryptic. Like the signs?

Taking this week off for streaming. Instead i’ll be focused on getting the early prototype of #Gryptic into a playable state!
After spending all of last stream programming some crude transitions between the background drone sounds and low life music loop, I found a much better and more elegant way to handle that today. Un-mute to listen 🎵
#godotengine #indiegames #gamedev #sounddesign #Gryptic
Been working on some visual changes and experimenting with assets packs in Gryptic since my last stream. Between changing how the resolution works, and adding some ps1-inspired post-processing, I've got it looking nice and crunchy now.
#Gryptic #indiegames #gamedev #godotengine #videogames #psx
Canceling my twitch stream for tonight. I over-did it when I worked out today and I’m completely wiped out! I’ll have some other #Gryptic related updates soon 🤓
I'm about to go live on Twitch! Today I'll be working on Gryptic again, fleshing out some of the game's resource systems and natural health recovery. I'll be live from 5pm to 7pm EST today, so basically now-ish.

To test the healing behavior in Gryptic (and to test other future things) I put together a really simple button, that when shoved by the player, applies healing. Essential to counteract the Bad Sword.
#Gryptic #gamedev #indiegames #godotengine
Been working on some more prototype HUD elements for Gryptic. To help test the health bar behavior I needed to add a way to deal damage to yourself: the bad sword. I just made a placeholder sword sprite that you hold by the blade. The bad sword hurts you.
#gamedev #indiegames #Gryptic #godotengine
Throwing is smooth, and using items is starting to get there in Gryptic!
I'll be working on the combat mechanics again today during my Twitch stream! I'll be live from 5pm to 7pm est, tune in here:

#gamedev #indiegames #godotengine #Gryptic #twitch
Today on my live stream, I'll be working on combat mechanics for Gryptic! This will include using items, attacking, and some basic hit feedback and UI changes. Also more carrot throwing. I'll be live from 5pm to 7pm EST!

I’ll be streaming again today from 5pm to 7pm EST! Since I managed to get input buffering for Jumping functional, I’ll be able to start digging into the meat of the action system on today’s stream!

More off-stream progress on my rogue-lite dungeon crawler: Gryptic! I've got foot-step sounds, and made improvements to my targeting system. I'll be working on this some more live on my twitch channel today from 5pm to 7pm EST!
