Greetings, celebrated creators! It's been a while, so here's an update on the stuff I've been working on so far. [h2]Roguelike[/h2] One of the biggest, latest and greatest changes - Antipaint is becoming a roguelike. The core gameplay will remain the same - you will still be battling baddies that leave paint trails and each level you beat will still become an awesome and unique piece of art. Additionally, you'll also be visiting some crazy places and grabbing items along the way. Each item will affect you in fun and unique ways, making each playthrough different and interesting. Each level will also be randomly generated, so you'll end up with a large variety of paintings.

Playing this way feels nice and immediate, you get into a flow of creating tons of different paintings without even noticing it, which is exactly what I want Antipaint to be!

The enemies now have tiny little hands and they reach towards the player if he gets too close. The enemies have eye expressions and they blink! These really minor things, but I feel like they make the game look much nicer.

It bounces around and sends kittens towards the player. Neat!

It took a while, but I got it working - you can now tweak things like the paint brightness and screenshake amount. This will have to be expanded to include more settings in the future. [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/39212421/c95cf785d852ab29dca0d4a82401806f0c0855f5.gif[/img] There's been a lot of stuff done in these last few months. Most of it was working on the roguelike aspects of the game, but I'm sure I've missed a few details here and there.
