Got inspired by the #skald title screen anim I did so I tried it out the proc anim tool on some of the other awesome #pixelart in the game!

More could be made of the animation but the upside is that it's very fast to make! It took about 15 min to animate it and all I needed was for the artist to turn in the art in layers.

Also, 5 days left of the TREASURE HUNT! Check out the demo TODAY and win free games. More info here (you have till Monday 9th):

Seeing if I can't spruce up the intro screen a little bit by using some procedural anim for #Skald. Parallax looks pretty darn good IRL!

ALSO: Lot's of people participating in our treasure hunt! Try the demo and join in today (Real prizes):

Night is fast approaching and fog rolls in as fell-hounds begin baying in the distance. Relative safety might be found on the other side of the broken bridge. Do you risk the jump or look for a way around?

Making your way along the windswept coast of Idra, the ancient lighthouse stands out as a beacon in the darkness. It's light, however, is failing and dire howls are carried on the wind. What do you do?

Fellow screen athletes: do you use blue light filters in your terminal glasses and does it help eye fatigue? Looking for peer reviewed research in support of it but that seems lacking. Trying to find out if it's all a "big opto" conspiracy or if I should get it w my next pair:-)

#SKALD is a narratively driven RPG but still has a crunchy #TTRPG lineage meaning lots of customization options in the char creator.

That may feel a bit daunting to new players. Thankfully the difficulty settings means we cater for everything from narrative to ironman runs!

Also try to have rules & systems be exposed through tooltips etc.

Note how you see associated stats change as you change your primary stats in the gif above!

More on this in Friday's devlog update at Skaldrpg.com!
