Are we accidentally making a pixel art Baldur's Gate?? When I originally started Lair I had set out to make a successor to the old Goldbox games but the further we get into things the more it is feeling like playing Baldur's Gate (1 and 2) Oliver put in... new shadows today, they no longer overlap and I have also started working on up and down walking animations for the player figurines (a lot of work and testing my limited drawing abilities!)show more

All up for it, but please, add a sprint button (with a toggle option) 😅

I would like to play this. How can we make that happen?

Look into Warriors of the Eternal Sun. Basically, this reminds me of a mix of that with Baldur's Gate or Icewind Dale. Basically, any of the old Infinity Engine games, really.

Keep it up!

Looks cool, I'll have to keep an eye on this. Walking around does look cumbersome, as someone with limited game time. Maybe a "fast-walk" in safe spaces is viable? Won't have to animate any sprinting and helps everyone save a little time.

I was trying to keep the towns a bit smaller so there won't be too much walking hopefully. There are also fast travel points within towns on top of that to quickly move around 😊

Nice! I'm not a fan of fast travel systems, but I understand the line being walked in terms of balance. Don't let the opinion of this stranger alter your course. This is definitely making it to my wishlist, I love games like these.

Me too. Unfortunately I think we are the minority. We are trying to make the fast travel a bit more low fantasy 'you are walking to this location, just behind the scenes' than just teleporting magically around.

That drift usually starts the moment companions get opinions. Once the party talks to each other, players read them as characters instead of a stat block, and everything after that leans narrative. Nothing wrong with landing there. The new shadows look great.

The character's movement speed seems a bit slow. It's recommended to increase it to 1.2 or 1.5 times.

It's absolutely got a Baldur's Gate look to it. Love what you've done so far.

i find all the little things going on in the scenery very charming. like the ducks and NPCs having their own lives. idk if it would work well with the style but if the trees moved with the wind, it would blow my mind.

@dillraypickles It looks like Ultima 7

This is the kind of world where maps probably lie.

wow, it looks like! Pretty amazing!

Yes, please!

迫不及待想玩了

Shadows looking sweet now 👍

These guys need to walk at least twice as fast. Worst part of a new Baldur's Gate run is that it takes so long to get everyone boots of speed.

Add a toggable sprint button. Because this walking speed looks painful.

Definitely reminds me of the old 1990s games like Heroes of Might and Magic 2.

wooooo

Oooh this looks very interesting

В такой балдурс гейт я бы поиграл!

Looks really cool, another game to keep in mind and on the radar!

So real

need sprint

So real

Dink Smallwood 2

Looking good.

Looks really nice

That would actually be amazing. :D ♥

It's good, but i would raise the resolution a bit more.

This reminds me of the old King's Quest games. Looks great.

発売してくれ、とりあえずそれからだ 可能であれば日本語版お願いします🙇‍♀️🙇‍♀️
