Transcending sparks into flame.

Hey bloggers, it's that time again!

I must admit it was a slow weekend for me but I finally was able to produce a fully functioning AI working. I also added some more visual detail to the background and skill slots. All of the visuals is subject to change so don't be surprised if what you see here is different from when you play the game.  Minor bugs here and there still need to be fixed but the progress of the game is going well. As some of you saw in my fourth blog post, skills have an upgrade system in which they either grow in size, strength, range, or length.  Three screenshots below show off that growth for those of you who missed the video.

Fire 2

Fire 3

In addition to the growth of the skills enemies have health, can choose to attack if they want and can be hurt by the player's attack. Enemy programing is still basic in nature as of right now but by the time the game is finished I hope to make a more advanced AI.

A little more on Zyion......

So by now I'm sure you all have plenty of ideas of what Zyion is, and I'm here to tell you straight that Zyion is a hybrid of a Dragon and a Witch. The Drix tribe in which Zyion belongs to is comprised of several dragon hybrid species each with their own unique abilities and weaknesses. This unity between Dragons and non-Dragons was formed due to Dragons being hunted down to the brink of extinction. In order to help keep the Dragon bloodline alive the Drix are forced to go the Kytera mountains for Transcendence upon the age of 18 and transcend into a pure Dragon. However, it is the Drix's choice as to which creature to Transcend into but those who do not choose to become a dragon are highly looked down upon. Zyion himself is torn upon which path he should take into Transcendence and hopes that by the end of his journey he can become who he should become and not what people would like him to become.

Look out for my next post on Wednesday and goodnight!
