The year is coming to an end, and looking back we feel like 2023 was one of the most fun years we had working on Coridden! We’ve been adding a lot of new content, improving the game thanks to great player feedback and the extra help from several talented devs. Also, a little final gift just in time for Christmas, we teamed up with Anshar Publishing to help us during this last challenging stretch of game development.
This last period we’ve been working further on the different levels, quests and story of the game. One particular area we’ve been putting more work into is making more “boss” enemies and other extra challenging encounters. So design, animations, enemy behaviors and VFX have been created and improved upon to achieve these more challenging fights! We don’t want to spoil too much here, we’re eager to hear what you think when you face them yourself.????
But we’d love to share some abilities we’ve been working on for the creature “Dragolem” at least! This one is a very tough and heavy-hitting monster. ????
We’d also like to share a quick showcase of our first implementation of the new robotic enemies you can encounter in game (so, still early WIP). We’re implementing 3 different types of these stationary “turret” enemies, and while most of them might be a bit slow to turn and start shooting, getting in their line of fire could mean big trouble...
We know next year is going to be the most exciting one yet, as we have a Kickstarter campaign coming in Q1 and the full release on the horizon!
Until next time, Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year ✨
