It's so interesting being a newbie game dev in this era. I'm spending so much time building systems from the ground up - I have no idea if that's what is the best thing to do, but it makes sense to me.
Meanwhile others are like "Here's a complete new game I made this weekend!"๐
You vs the bull he told you not to worry about ๐
(Base form vs Black Bull size comparison... yes this is how you'll first encounter him!) #Powerofthebull

ALT 4-panel comic by War and Peas. Panel 1: A couple at a fancy restaurant under a full moon. The man panics. "Oh no, it's time." His date: "Dear, please don't." Panel 2: He starts transforming, shirt ripping. "ARGH! My rockhard muscles are ripping through!" Panel 3: Now a full werewolf, he flexes. "Raah! My buff legs! How embarrassing!" His date sips from her drink. Panel 4: The werewolf poses at the table. His date says flatly, "No one is taking pictures, dear."

Playing around with the concept of an intro dungeon. Teaching the player a few basic concepts, rewarding them with a new item, etc.
Definitely need to flesh this out to be bigger. I'm thinking a good size is 7-9 dungeon rooms, a mini-boss of sorts, and a boss. Right now, I'm building the bones, then comes the fun part of iterating and adding some meat to make it feel better.

GROWTH! Coded the XP and transformation sequences for the hero to grow from each stage as he levels up to different forms in #PowerOfTheBull. Things are coming together!

Aztec history lesson/devblog:
This is a Cihuateteo. In Aztec lore, a cihuateteo is a woman who died in child-birth. They are revered to the same levels as a fallen warrior in this culture. On the days they visited the earth, children and men were warned to stay indoors, as folklore claimed the Cihuateteo would steal young children, cause illness or palsy, and tempt men into adultery at crossroads.
