It's #ScreenshotSaturday and oh!? Are those? New expressions? The characters can now express themselves with new emotions!? Wow!

Also, it seems like there are 2 new locked characters here.

Any guess who they might be? 📷 #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame #adventure #cute

🔥🔥🔥 ATTENTION DEVELOPERS 🔥🔥🔥 There must be tons of games out there with assets from the store, but we don’t get to see many. 💻 So, if you have any completed games (ideally browser based) that include any GameDev Market assets, we want to see them. Because we’ll be picking some out to be included in an upcoming post on GDM so everyone else can check them out too. All you have to do is send the details and links to hello@gamedevmarket.net with a little explanation of your game, and we’ll take a look at everything sent in. 👀 The way we see it is you’ve spent precious hours of your time creating a fantastic indie game... Why not show it off!

Nothing special here. Just a giant Petri dish. Сharacter size dummy for comparison.

I'm glad to show it to you :)

Devlog 6: The grind

Not too much to talk about today! This week was mostly spent on un-flashy things like fixing some bugs in controller support and rebalancing encounters.

Encounters, or the possible combinations of enemies you can find, are the hardest and trickiest part of this game's development for me. They need to have a strategy that is predictable enough (but not completely deterministic) that allows for counterplaying and which forces to adapt your strategy on the fly, while also being fun and having the adequate amount of damage and HP, and a long list of other stuff that's tricky to balance.

A slightly flashier thing I've been doing is making new skills for the Brawler, the second playable character. It's still somewhat barebones when compared to the Arcanist, the original one, but it's getting there. It's trickier because I've imposed on myself the restriction of having them share as little strategies and concepts as possible, so they feel as different as they can be. Still, it's getting along, and it already feels very distinct to play compared to the Arcanist.

That's all for today! Don't forget to like and reblog and follow and ask and all that stupid stuff you're supposed to do on the internet so the Almighty Algorithm notices you (me, in this instance (but I'll notice you (and I'm cooler than a computer))).

If you haven’t seen it yet, check out the announcement post for RE:P!

Introducing: Salvador!

House: Iscari Height: 5’10 Likes: Magic tricks, city lights, electric guitar, mischief Dislikes: Talking about himself, crowds, video games, peacocks

Description: A playful, easygoing loner and self-proclaimed “nobody,” Sal is your first friend and quasi-mentor in the vampiric underworld. Like many Iscari, he’s effortlessly charming, though a little theatrical at times. He also works the night shift at a strangely empty bar, where you first encounter him.

But there’s something mysterious about Sal. He shows a persistent interest in you from the start, even protecting you despite the risks involved. You can’t quite put your finger on it, but you have a feeling all is not what it seems.

Why is he helping you? And who really is “Salvador”?

✞———————❖———————✞

Stay tuned for more character introductions in the following weeks! There are many NPCs in RE:P, and we’re super excited to introduce you to them all!

Questions or Comments?

Feel free to send in questions about RE:P and any AG/GAG games (or dev-related questions)! Our Ask Box is always open.

Q: I have a question. Will we have a strix, too? And would their existence influence our interaction with the LI?

A: For those unfamiliar with previous Red Embrace titles, some mortals in the Red Embrace universe are known as a Strix or Strices (plural). These humans have uniquely appealing blood, but if they’re turned, their bodies can react in dangerous and unpredictable ways. In Red Embrace: Hollywood, the player character has the option of having a Strix for a blood pet (feeding from them repeatedly).

As for RE:P, there may or may not be another Strix appearance! There will be optional blood pets, though. Unless they’re romantically involved with the MC (whether they’re romanceable is TBD), there likely won’t be much reaction from any love interest…unless said love interest objects to blood pets or happens to be jealous, of course.

Q: Just noticed that there’s an update to the screenshots for RE:P and cult leaders are included in all houses. Is this a sign for things to come?

A: We’re happy you noticed this fun little detail! However, the inclusion is just to show the equal career opportunities available for all types of vampires…

Or is it?
