TREMENDOUS progress!! All of the data-handling and "viewfinding" for the upgrade grid is complete. The next step is to hook this into the existing power-ups from the "blueprint era", while adding some new ones. After that, buttons and graphics!

I wonder how many lines of code I've written for Grabbus... Even for what must seem like a simple game, there is a great deal of detail put into its systems. It's easily the most complex thing I've ever assembled, by a LOT. I thought I'd feel more overwhelmed by now, but nah...

I'm gonna have to rely on others to tell me if Grabbus is fun, cause when you build and test something for years, you form a very different relationship to it. Can't see it with fresh eyes. Even the idea of doing an extended playtest of my own has me like "uuuuuuuuhh"

Another nerf! Before, dropped loot potency was rolled from 100% to (Difficulty)% evenly. Now, since there are a greater number of ways to increase loot potency... the worst of two rolls is used!

I spent today in deep contemplation, sketching the upgrade screen graphics and UI! Simple controls compatible for KBM and Gamepad, all info conveyed, a space for everything, and an aesthetic all its own. It could end up being a very beautiful part of the game.

I made the decision to delete my twitter account within the week and switch to blue sky. bsky.app/profile/grabbu… Sorry for the inconvenience, but this platform has become unsuitable for promoting my game. Be sure to follow so you don't miss the big demo!!
