CodeSpells Version 0.911 -- Nightly Branch
[ 2017-07-18 17:21:51 CET ] [ Original post ]
Hi All! We've been working hard on a fun and challenging single-player experience, and we ended up settling on a survival-game-meets-tower-defense sort of experience, where towers can cast spells. A big question we've gotten is if towers can be made to cast any spell. Currently, the answer is "no", but we are planning on making that happen at some point. Here are the build's changes: Gameplay: -Survival mode (currently it's "roguelike", but the plan is to make the experience more like survival sim where you can save your world) -Limited-shot spells (for placing towers, and studying spells on scannable things) -NPC chat system (your staff talks to you and gives you advice) -Made more environment things destructible Audio: -Footstep/attacking sounds for Croakers and Rock Beasts. -Ambience sounds -NPC chat sounds Performance: -We got rid of dynamic water. It was slowing things down at certain times quite a bit. -Fixed a performance bug having to do with the death "nether"

CodeSpells is in Early Access, so not all planned features have been implemented. The current version includes Earth, Water, Fire, and Air magic, as well as 5 multi-player minigames and a procedurally generated sandbox creative mode. *Note: multiplayer is still in an early alpha state and requires port forwarding and local hosting.

When we were young, wizards like Gandalf and Dumbledore struck a chord in our minds. We spent hours pretending to be wizards and casting epic imaginary spells. We wanted to see these fantasies fully realized, so we created CodeSpells.
CodeSpells combines the creative freedom of imagination with the beauty and interactivity of video games. The secret sauce? Coding. Instead of limiting players to pre-packed spells, we allow our players see the real magic that happens under the hood of most games. Through Javascript or the intuitive, kid-friendly visual tool Blockly, CodeSpells lets everyone craft the magic of their dreams.
Ignite blazing wildfires, drain entire seas, turn the elements into a force field around you, or just blow stuff up - the choice is yours!
PLANNED FEATURES:
*Ability for players to use multiplayer servers in the cloud to play with friends (rather than using their own PC as a server).
*Life Magic: (Final Kickstarter Stretch Goal) We’re going to make more robust ecosystems and interactions with the lifeforms of CodeSpells.
*Coding Tutorial: After getting great feedback from our beta testers on Steam, we’ve decided to revamp our code windows in order to make them as intuitive as humanly possible. This includes built-in aid for trying to craft your own games within CodeSpells, like the 5 multi-player minigames we have provided.
*We might create a small campaign mode where players can test their skills by protecting the fading fragments of the CodeSpells universe, but this is a dream feature, and last on our list. Our primary purpose is to deliver on our Kickstarter goals, and make the best procedurally-generated spell-crafting sandbox the world has ever seen.
We are so grateful for everyone’s help in making CodeSpells as magical as we all want it to be. We hope you will continue to give us feedback on Steam and on the Forums as we bear down on the final product.
