How To Make RPG Combat More InterestingSupport the channel on patreon!: patreon.com/ArchitectofGames Follow me on twitter!: twitter.com/Thefearalcarrot RPGs are a classic genre - so much so that they've been around since before the dawn of videogames.

What can be done about it? Watch the video and find out, dummy.

How I Designed the Perfect Open World for my Dream RPG Game - Monster Tribe DevlogHere's the thought process that went into creating the perfect open world for my dream RPG Game "Monster Tribe"!

Monster Tribe's Cool Features: In Monster Tribe Devlog 20 we discuss what makes the perfect open world for an indie RPG and how we can start to figure out how we want to make our game enticing to players. In my experience developing an open world rpg has come with as many negatives as it does positives so make sure you are understanding WHY you are creating an open world game in the first place and try to figure out what really makes this feature an incredible gameplay overhaul over being a band-aid to a crumbling idea of random design ideas. Monster Tribe has come a long way since we started almost 2 years ago, so thank you all for your continued support, allowing me to develop my child-hood dream game as a full-time game developer/pixel artist. #MonsterTribe #devlog #gamedev #indiedev #pixelart #gamemaker #gamedevelopment #gaming |
How Do You Design a Cast of EnemiesThe first 1000 people who click the link will get 2 free months of Skillshare Premium: skl.sh/designdoc0820 You could have the ultimate combat system for your game, but what good is it if you've got no one to fight? Constructing a cast of enemies is a tough task. Even great games like Breath of the Wild and Paper Mario: The Origami King haven't nailed it perfectly. You need to carefully balance visual and mechanical design to keep things interesting, and games like Pikmin and the Dragon Quest series have each figured out a way to do that well. Let's talk about how to design a cast of enemies, some problems to avoid, and some opportunities to add flair to make your fights worth fighting.
