thanks

The circular repeating damage was so cool (0:43) 🗿
will there be sound variation added and/or pitch variation? i wonder if that’d sound cool
the cinematic throw across the room move was so cool too

[wheat wing]

thanks , yes these are not final sounds as its still in early development

Deflection and Deflection counter attack

Critical Attack

Do you make your own effects? Animations?

Either way this is really cool

I think some screenshake is an order since the boss feels a bit weak when it’s huge flaming blade just swishes around

[wheat wing]

thanks .....no i am only focusing on programming , other assets i am buying from store .....

[wheat wing]

yes i am using low intensity or no shakes on normal attacks and only using strong shakes on major attacks , i dont want to have too many screen shakes while boss fight

[dreamy robin]

I just think that the massive lava blade should be a bit more impactful when you parry it

Because it kinda just makes a small spark like a regular human sized sword would

[wheat wing]

Yes i am actually making changes in effects to make it more visible and impactfull .... have you seen the deflection and counter attack video above , thats actually the updated version .also updating effects on normal hits as well
