Hi The Armorman Smiley
Althought our combat mechanic is a bit inspired by Dark Souls there will be no Soul collecting mechanic in our game. Soulblight is a roguelike/roguelite but we plan for some meta game progression mechanic (although collecting Souls isn't one of them Smiley)

This looks incredible. Specially loving the art and environment design, makes the top-down perspective so enjoyable while being able to discern background from foreground. Also loving the mood overall, amazing work.

During your journey through the sanctuary you’ll come across rare A'dr gems that can fuel a mysterious process of transmutation. Legend tells that some of thous crystals can also be infused with a human soul.

Passed week was an intensive one but it was definitely worth it as we've reached the ALFA!


Different developers define "ALPHA" in a bit different way. For us this means you can actually play and finish the entire game. You can visit all the locations and all the mechanic are already in place. This doesn't mean the game is finished thought. There's still a lot of work ahead of us. Most of the locations lack light, particles and ambient animations. ALPHA doesn't mean the programming and designing work is finished as well. From now on though we will be focusing on adjusting and balancing the gameplay. This means soon we might be in need of testers so stay tuned Smiley

To seek out the Soulblight you will have to face strange and horrifying machine created hundreds years ago in the Age of Wonder. Meet Marauder, Brute and Sentry. Know that there are many other iron monster that will stand in your way...

Sometimes it is better to take your enemy out without the fight... if your honor allows you to do such a thing... Be careful though, the environment might be traitorous. One wrong move and the sound you make will alert your prey.

 Sounds like a really clever RP system with the taint mechanics.  Very curious to see how it plays out.

Second week of alpha test is behind us. So far everything seems to be going well. Besides clearing out few minor bugs we've added new combat action - dash (you can see it on the gif above). It's effectiveness scales down with the amount of armor your character is wearing. This allowed us better differentiate play style of heavily and lightly equipped characters. Thanks to our testers we've been also able to better evaluate the difficulty of our game. It seems our complex mechanics tend to confuse players at the beginning. To smoothen the difficulty curve without lowering it all along we've decided to create a short introductory level. Don't worry you won't have to play it over and over again with every run Smiley It will launch only when you play the game for the first time.

That's all for this week Folks Smiley

Today I would like to show you a parry mechanic. How it works is it throws enemy off balance when you perfectly time your block. Additionally you revive a few seconds of slow motion. You can use it to reposition before striking a deadly blow

I like the armless animation.

Some feedback on your English in the taint menu:

Try "Being wounded gives you Rage boost" spelling it this way gives you cause then effect. It is easier to understand this way.

"the stronger you are the more different items you're carrying" doesn't parse. I think you meant to say "The more items you carry the stronger you are" or "Carrying excessive items gives you a Strength boost"

or possibly "As Strength increases, so does Endurance (item carry capacity)"
