Prototype Units and Sprites, Capns Log 02


Hello Gamers!

Well after much trying and many hours effort I have come to realize I am not an artist. Although my little minions looked cool, they were too big for what I envision for this game. A massive horde the size of the Uruk-hai army that invaded Helms Deep. Well you get the idea, you march across the screen with as many units as you can summon given your level and unlocked minions, for which I have planned at least 20 minion types, with at least that many enemy types. Not included boss battles. 

So far the game follows like this, you start on the start screen and choose your Summoner Image, from a list available. Then you get loaded into the first zone, and the choice of load out for your first summons, a skeleton or zombie to start and then a choice of three opening battles. After each battle you get resources to upgrade your units, upgrade your summoner tower or upgrade your summoner. Then once you made those choices its back to battle. There will be different types of battles to do, with different types of resources. Will have the story battles, that lead you through the very basic and simple story of conquest and some random battles that allow you to get new resources, unlock minion subtypes, get new gear to upgrade the summoner and so forth. That will be the game loop, pick your units, upgrade stuff, go battle, get resources and repeat. 

The first two zones and about 6 battle types will be ready over this weekend and hopefully I can get them working well enough for people to try by Monday or Tuesday. 

I really want input as to game mechanics to see if the game loop is enough for people to want to keep playing until a final zone and boss. Let me know what you think by posting a comment, for more direct communication follow me on Facebook page. For now I don't have a discord set up, but if I can get enough people following and interested in the game than I will get that set up instead of Facebook. 

Also if you like this idea, want to support me, let me know, anyone who offers support can be put in the game as an enemy boss to fight, with your own name and tweeked art style. 

Anyway, happy gaming and thanks for reading.
