Hello, welcome to my second devlog!
If you haven’t read the previous devlog I would highly recommend it.
I have gotten quite a bit of progress, so I’m going to divide it into these categories -
- Combat
- Weapon Buffs & Modifications
- Extra
Combat
Things I’ve added since the lest devlog -
- Swinging
- Jabs (Faster, more damaging, harder to parry but if it is parried there is a huge stun penalty.)
- Parry
- Blocking
- Stuns
- Posture & Block break
- Criticals
- Animations (I might polish these later)
Here is a gif of the animations for M1 and Jab - https://gyazo.com/7abd7dd60eae9a1d4dfcce413060a048
Here are the block and parrying -

And here is a demo of combat -

(Notice how posture works and how the block dummy is block broken)
Weapon Buffs & Modifications
Things I’ve added since the lest devlog -
- Part abilities
- Modifiers
- Part matching
Ice pommel adds frost to your sword which freezes your enemy on the next hit (They can still attack) - https://gyazo.com/02fd27051accb16ad38506295b2c4508
Modifiers which can increase certain stats of swords -
Example of a sword with the “Developer” modifier (Just for testing it wont be in the game) - https://gyazo.com/9e43495abb86405c253383b5b6cebd91
The last finished feature I want to talk about in this category is part matching. Handles and blades are the only parts with weight classes(Light, Heavy, Medium). If you match a light sword and a heavy handle or vice versa, attack speed is reduced 40%, but if it is only one step apart(Medium & Light) then it only takes 15%. If the parts are the same type (Medium & Medium) then it will take no attack speed penalty.
Something I want to add is the ability to add an element to your sword and then apply scrolls with spell on them. For example a scroll with a fireball spell could be applied to a fire infused sword.
Extra
The last feature I want to talk about is the inventory. It is nowhere near done, and only sword equipping works. Here is an example - robloxapp-20221009-1055025
(Yes I know the UI sucks but I am just working on the system right now)
Thank you so much if you read the whole post, or even if you just skimmed it. Any criticism is welcome and wanted.
