🏃‍♂️Taking the first steps (and sneaking around) in the Overworld. The camera movement isn't perfect yet, but I think the basic player movement fits what I imagined quite well. The evil ladders are next! #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev #anime #Unity #unity3d #rpg #screenshotsaturday

🪜Ladders always were one of my arch nemesis' when it comes to game development. I still plan on adding a proper Get-Up animation, but I think the base system behaves very much like expected. Next up - Swimming! #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev #unity3d #rpg #screenshotsaturday

👤Look at me! If two characters are close to each other, they'll look at each other. I made this not only to make characters feel more alive, but also to prepare them for my dialog system framework! #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev #anime #Unity #unity3d #rpg #screenshotsaturday

👥That's what friends are for! In Vivacious, you are always accompanied by up to 2 allies, in this case: Fey & Sato! You can also tell them to strike a pose in the new First Person View mode! (+ New UI) #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev #anime #Unity #unity3d #rpg #screenshotsaturday

💨Zooming around in this first look at our combat system! Use grounded and aerial dashes as gap closers! I worked a lot on making the movement feel good and I am really happy with how it came out! (Sound🔊) #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev #anime #Unity #unity3d #screenshotsaturday

YEET! 🫵 Testing the throws! Predict your opponent's block and use the grab to disrupt them, forcing them into another position! It's not perfect yet, but the camera perspective switch was a neat idea! #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev #anime #Unity #unity3d #rpg #screenshotsaturday

⚔️A first look at our protagonist's attacks. Light and Heavy Attacks, which are altered while airborne. Each part of the (grounded) attacks can be charged. Uncharged Light Attacks combo into each other. #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev #anime #Unity #unity3d #rpg #screenshotsaturday

⁉️Okay, so WHO - Man, I just wanted to test our first person view with which you can take a closer look at everything! #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev #anime #Unity #unity3d #rpg #screenshotsaturday

🔀Ending the year on some character switching! I developed a system with which you can switch between your party members on the fly! And this one time... I am also controlling the bad guys. Weird!🧟 #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev #anime #Unity #unity3d #rpg #screenshotsaturday

⚔️Let's end this year with a BANG! Take a look at this preview for our character AZAZEL - as well as 2 of his special moves! He is a nimble assassin, wielding a giant scythe! More to come in 2023!🎆 #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev #anime #Unity #unity3d #rpg #screenshotsaturday

🎇HAPPY 2023 - No matter where in the world you are. This year, we made a lot of progress on Vivacious - we did some background stuff but even got to show you a glimpse of our combat system! Thank you for your amazing support this year, we can't wait for 2023! #indiegame #gamedev

"Do you have a moment to talk abo-" Me in my head: #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev #anime #Unity #unity3d #rpg #screenshotsaturday

We've been doing this for 5 whole years now, huh? On 2018-02-02 a group of friends decided that they wanted to make a silly, little fantasy game. Many, MANY interations and another game later, we are working hard on developing the game that brought us together - Vivacious.

Our studio, Daggerbunny Studios, celebrates its' 5th anniversary today! When we formed this studio in 2018, we were not expecting to have such a great community upon the release of our very first game! To more cool stuff in 2023 - and beyond! #indiedev #gamedev

⚔️Life as Fey easy. Enemy too far away? Press 1 Button for crossbow. Good life. #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev #anime #Unity #unity3d #rpg #screenshotsaturday

🏹Who could've thought that implementing this bow boi would come with so many bugs? A first look at Astor with his charge mechanic! (Almost) all of his moves hit really hard, but need to be charged! #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev #anime #Unity #unity3d #rpg #screenshotsaturday

🪝Using the hookshot to go to higher places! While either grounded or airborne, Astor can reach places other characters can't! Seems like a perfect fit for a long-ranged archer. #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev #anime #Unity #unity3d #rpg #screenshotsaturday

⚛️I changed ONE small Physics Number and now everything runs so... smoothly! Movement and Input now feel snappier and more responsive than ever. #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev #anime #Unity #unity3d #rpg #screenshotsaturday
