[h2]👋 Góðan daginn! 👋 [/h2] It's time for some official game design news about the game - we are also here to show you some concept arts for Creatures from our game! The game has a dynamic, real-time combat system. Optional companions will be able to join the main character’s party and help him in the fight. During the fight, the player has full control over the hero and must react to everything that is happening around him. Brand can use five types of weapons: one-handed, two-handed, polearm, short and ranged. Each type of weapon offers a different fighting style that relies on a different method of controlling and conducting the fight. 🪓 One-handed weapons provide the greatest versatility in the fight between mobility, enemy control, and damage dealt. You can fight with it using a different one-handed/short weapon or shield in the other hand. 🪓 ⚔️ Two-handed weapons provide the greatest damage and considerable armor penetration at the cost of much slower attacks. It also provides a wide range of attacks, making it easier to fight larger groups of enemies. ⚔️ ☠️ Polearms allow you to control the engagement with the farthest and broadest attacks of all melee weapons. Particularly useful against enemies that you need to keep at a safe distance. ☠️ 🗡️ Short weapons consist of a variety of light weapons that unrestrict character's movement and are easy to hide. It allows you to flood your opponent with a barrage of blows and has the best chance of dealing critical damage. Moreover, it is the best weapon for sneaking attacks. 🗡️ 🏹 Ranged weapons allow you to attack enemies from a considerable distance and defeat them even without getting close. Some ranged weapons also offer the use of different types of missiles, such as bows and crossbows. 🏹 🎽 There are four types of clothing in the game: robes, light, medium and heavy armor. The heavier the armor, the better its protection. The weight of the armor affects the regeneration of health, stamina, mana as well as the speed of movement, attack and dodge of the player. Each light, medium, and heavy armor is divided into five components: boots, bracers, pants, armor, and a helmet. 🎽 🛡️ Shields are also considered as a piece of armor. Light shield allows the player to move during the block but it is not as effective as heavy shield which grants wider range and quality of block. 🛡️ 🔥 There are various types of enemies in the game, from average and relatively harmless creatures to powerful enemies with whom the fight will take place in several stages. During the clashes, the player can use a range of normal, special and magic attacks. The most powerful magic is related to the soul power (hugr) of our hero. In some locations, elements of the environment may also be helpful. However, they can turn out to be harmful to the hero if use incorrectly. During the fight, it is possible to use a variety of items to change its course to your advantage. It includes potions, throwing items, ointments, traps, oils and other items that affect our character, companions, opponents or our equipment. 🔥 It's time to introduce some of the already presented opponents! ☠️ The first is Skuggi - disembodied souls of dead thieves and perjury, who were wicked until the day of their death and did not atone for their sins. ☠️ [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41450177/30bbaa42f724a5c37d362a2d49fbf1e235949b53.png[/img] 💀 The second one is Aptrgangr - a mighty and great undead, who with his attitude inspires fear in the hearts of his opponents. He can tear a person with his bare hands, but much more often uses his powerful, two-handed weapon for this. 💀 [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41450177/76e883c354304d889c09608c33371c0c0d0785f6.png[/img] Let us know what do you think!
