Hey, all. It's been a while since I posted here (and a longer while since I posted any updates on the progress of Hellscape), but I wanted to share some screenshots of the upcoming Alpha 0.01 release (which should be online some time next week). Needless to say, the game has changed quite a bit from the demo I posted last December, but I think the changes have all been for the better.
So why has it been so long since the last update?
I graduated University in May, and have had to spend the past few months looking for a job (and settling in once I found one). That's kept me a bit busy, so I haven't been able to work on Hellscape quite as often as I'd have liked. I also completely reworked the combat system--the game's now a strategy RPG, rather than an action RPG--and that took a LOT of time to get right.
I'm wrapping up work on Chapter One right now (which has about an hour and a half of gameplay), and once that's finished I'll be posting an update.
See you all then!
