Features of the week : Sound Design, Combat...
So I've been working on the game's Sound Design, interface sounds, in-game sounds (when you cut a tree, forge an item... or combat sounds), ambient sounds and some music composed by a musician I worked with. The result is pretty cool, and I'll try to update the trailer soon to include in-game sounds and music, because right now there's no sound at all and it's a bit sad!
I've reworked the combat system to make it a little less cluttered. Workers will be less likely to crowd into the same tile, for example. I've also changed the behavior when workers are in combat mode: instead of targeting a character and attacking him until one or the other dies, they'll now be able to switch targets between each attack, which makes the combat system a little more dynamic, less punishing if a worker gets targeted by several enemies at once, and it feels a little more like a free-for-all, which is what I had in mind at the start. For the record, once a character is in combat mode, you have no control over him, and he'll attack anything within range... until he dies.
I've added a little blood effect that spurts out when a character is killed, which is always nice!
I spent most of the week fixing bugs, adding QOL and improving performance, especially on a large map with lots of enemies.

Hello everyone! I'll be able to resume the schedule I'd set myself at the start, i.e. one news per week presenting the progress of development. Over the last few days, I've been busy working on the game's sound design, which is now complete :) So here's an overview of what's new since last time, enjoy your reading.

That's all for this week, thanks for reading! Kisses

King's Keeper is a colony simulation and base-building game set in a medieval fantasy world.
Context
In a world where night is permanent, your King and his “workers” will have to survive, fight and build what may be the foundations of a new Kingdom.
Features already available
Procedural generation: The map is randomly generated with each new game.
Job system: miner, woodcutter, farmer, blacksmith, craftsman, clothier and more. Configure each profession on each character using a priority system.
Raids: Enemies such as Goblins, Cyclops and the dreaded Night Walkers will regularly attack you.
Tower Defense: Build powerful towers to repel raids.
Base building: Building a dormitory or bedrooms would be a good start...
Needs and sanity: Take care of the needs of your “workers” and your King to prevent their sanity from plummeting.
Game Over: If your King dies, the game ends.
Craft: Harvest and craft resources for your base and equipment for your workers.
Skills: Each task performed by a “worker” will earn him XP in the associated skill, and he will become more efficient over time.
Light/Dark: A worker will prefer to sleep in the dark, and work with light. Some enemies will be invisible in the dark...
And many more :)
Upcoming features
Reproduction: Short of manpower? Select your 2 best workers and have them reproduce.
Trade: Export surplus production and import all kinds of goods
Prestige: Increase your prestige by upgrading your base, which you can use to unlock technologies or improvements, which may also attract attention...
Quests: Your King will have demands. He's the King, after all.
