Samurai Game Jam 2024
I was making good progress on Crumbling Crypt until Cheez shared a link on the discord about a new game jam, called Samurai Game Jam. I was half jokingly saying that I'd bee cool to make something for it and I got swept away, so Devlog 0 time baby!

Stances and their sprites already in! Onto some samurai variations and a better background! After that, combat resolution!
Don't forget, tomorrow is PICO-8 Weekend, we are gonna jump into some live stream coding for sure!
Double Posting because that is what we do ... :D But hey on stream we made a lot of progress, and managed to get a proper game loop into the project! You can now predict the enemy attack and beat it in Rock-Paper-Scissor style!
Also we added a lot of heads thanks to @nerdyteachers on-spot drawing skills! More samurai to run into!
There was a lot of progress on today's stream, mainly we have made the battlefield more lively! They might even serve a purpose other than just eyecandy!
Devlog Tomorrow and stream VODs as soon as they render!
If you are interested in how stuff shared above is created you can now read along the first devlog!
It contains a few spoilers in the end about how you will be able predict attacks, but discusses other things of course!

I uploaded the VOD-s to YouTube! In case you want to check my IRL thought lines, chat interactions and not just read through the devlogs!

Character customization and a whole new battle area! The bamboo gardens! Let's hope I have time to add a few more to the game! Wednesday is release day!
One Last Swing is out!

You can now play the game jam release! Expect a few bugs, which might be only solved tomorrow, quite late here.
You can now enjoy One Last Swing from the BBS and with that from the comfort of your sofa using Splore!
