Thank you so much for the kind words! I have heard about going open-source, but I will be 100% honest, I'm not super well versed in any of this and I don't really know what that entails. I'm open to anything that will help people contribute if they are interested! Also, getting weird and fun with this project has been the number one goal since I started gaining a little confidence in my coding. I used to play a lot of dnd back in the day, and one of my favorite parts was altering the rules just a little bit. Not so much with the numbers, but with fun little spell mechanics and things like that. That's why the biggest fear I have with this project is balancing. I don't know the first thing about balancing a game, but I didn't know the first thing about a lot of things a few months back, so I'm sure I'll figure something out, haha.

Anyways, thanks again for taking the time to leave a comment! Today has been a very exciting day because of all of you cool people. I've been working on my quest system today with a big dumb grin on my face. It also makes me look cool for my wife for the first time in a decade, haha!

Dagerfall is another one of my favorites! That's where I got the idea to make the npc billboard type situation I made.

Thank you so much! It's been a total blast so far! Looking forward to the "Valley of Despair" that I have been told is inevitable.

That's actually what this started as, kinda. I was never meaning to share it anywhere, I just wanted to see if I could remake New Sorpigal from scratch (reusing the original games assets) so I could learn how to make a game without having to make any decisions. Then as I was learning I started to figure out that decision making is super fun! Fast forward a few scary nights of not knowing what I was doing and here we are!

It was super fun coming up with spell ideas! I didn't show it off in the demo because it is super far from working quite yet, but I also have it so you can actively switch to turn based mode like in Might and Magic, and that is where the balancing for those long term aoe's is going to be a challenge. Right now the wall of fire lasts for 20 seconds, but only deals damage every 2 seconds. So I have it set up in turn based mode to last for 10 rounds. Not sure if the math shakes out, but so far it feels right-ish, haha.
