I keep trying to keep enemies for my RPG simple but instantly fail every time because the game has four health bars and I think it's cool how you have to manage different survival aspects and all but that means everything has FOUR HEALTHBARS
I need a more efficient way to abstract this down (especially since I keep wanting to split epic monsters into parts like some kind of videoghame bossfight, which means MORE HEALTHBARS) but haven't landed on something yet I can make universal. Maybe once summer is over and I actually get to sleep again...
I’ve completely readjusted Ill Wind’s weight and carry capacity a good three or four times now. Trying to keep it easy to use but also an active concern.
In the mix, some oddities pop up time to time. Like a baseline character being able to carry five others all day long with no side effects.
It's evil, gross, sad and maybe a little pretty. Get the new book NAPTIME here NAPTIME PINUP by Nick Vincenti Obviously something wrong with the man, obviously we're buds.
