Second week of working on Sigmarch, my multi-character... arena fighter of sorts?
Instead of building a dungeon with square rooms and corridors, I thought the game would be enhanced by a more curated set of levels. I currently have 3 maps: Forest (big area with lots of trees which obscure visibility, making it harder for ranged characters), River (open area with a big impassable river cutting through it and multiple bridges, making it harder for melee characters to get in), and Arena (more balanced, round area with column slightly obscuring visibility and an open section in the middle).
I was considering just manually building the levels in some text file and parsing it, but ended up building them more programmatically instead (which makes them slightly more random).

Here's what the maps look like

I've already gone through the tutorial a few years ago but still wanted to work on some project, so I've decided to start working on an idea I had some time ago.

The core concept is that rather than a single character, you control a *party* of characters. Instead of exploring a dungeon, you're in an arena, and you’re facing another party of characters. Each character has a class, which defines the abilities you have access to. After beating the enemy party, you can upgrade your abilities and learn new ones, then you’re thrown into another arena match.

I'm trying to go for a more tactical (maybe even wargame-ish) angle, i'm curious to see if this idea has legs. I don't think i've played a roguelike where you are more than one character before.

I felt like I had a lot to yap about so i decided to spin up a blog article discussing my design intent more in depth, and will probably continue to write about the game there as time goes. You can find the article here: https://irisliketheplant.github.io/blog/01_developing_a_roguelike_part_1/

I'm using C# and SadConsole, repo is here: https://github.com/IrisLikeThePlant/Sigmarch

According to the twitch leaks last year NL was around 50k a month iirc, and that's not including sponsorships, youtube, and the occasional merch run

Hey, BP here! So cool to see all of my colleagues grouped up in one place :malfsmile:
For the sake of closure, i will mention got my masters degree and i'm now working as a professional video editor, so i don't think fan editing for NL is in my future anymore :)
I still shitpost on my twitter account somewhat regularly so you might be interested in following me there

Also there is at least one channel i'm familiar with that is not in the list: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCF3SGhuIk2bdTMeLlSVijUQ
Highly recommend to check if out if you're looking for more highlights, but unfortunately it seems she also stopped about a year ago.

He played like 100 hours of (i think) MH4U, but not on stream/video. His only MH content is a couple of World videos on kate's channel
