I'm going to continue working on Lich to make a full game, with more abilities and a world to explore.
I started work on improving the art, trying to add better detail while keeping the simple feeling that I like from the original sketches. Here are some ideas for the Lich, next to the version I had…

My game Lich is complete. My main focus today was adding sound. I made some sound effects on bfxr.net, and figured out how to limit the number of sounds being played in the right way. One thing that helped a lot was not starting the same sound twice within a few frames of each other. This way you c…

I started today by making some much needed UI. Hearts to show your remaining life, and spirit life. The red heart is your current life, and the silver outline is your spirit health. Earlier I was thinking these two sets of hearts would be near eachother, but not on top of eachother. Once it occured…

I added the power-ups I talked about yesterday. Enemies drop mana power-ups when they die, and you can only pick up those power-ups when you die and are in spirit mode.

Today I added a variety of enemies. I gave the peasants pitchforks and torches. Knights are like the basic soldier, but a little tougher. Paladins are the toughest so far, and have a faster charge ability.

Today I focused on the enemy soldier. It chases you and your skeletons if you get near, and attacks you if you're right next to him. Of course, simply chasing you makes it easy to kite the whole group, so the rest of the day I just worked on more movement types. Sometimes instead of chasing you dir…

So far, I've added movement, peasants, a spell to shoot peasants, a spell to turn dead peasants into skeletons, and added the ability of skeletons to kill peasants. Next, I think i'll had soldiers with the ability to attack you and your skeletons. Here's a screenshot highlighting what i've made so …

This is my first time entering "The Week of Awesome". For the "Death is Useful" theme, I'm making a game with a Necromancer Lich, and plan to address the theme in two ways. The first is obvious for a necromancer, making use of an opponents death by raising the dead. I also plan to make the players …
