Apexicon: Fantasy Puzzle Combat - Created by Gaffer - [Wii U/Vita/PS4 stretch goals]
- Thread starter Jobbs
- Start date
I can do a quick walkthrough of what we have so far, but I'm still building towards the demo.
Backed via PayPal.
Game has potential. In particular the features outside of the battle intrigue me. I love preparing for fights, setting everything up, go shopping, customize everything, managing your own castle/town building stuff etc. Hope details follow.
Will there be equipment, outside of the weapon?

There will be lots of items that can go in the offensive and defensive slots, and slotting them will allow you to change how you make words in combat, as well as potential combos from each.
And ANYTHING can be an offensive item. From a broom to an NPC who follows you to the Emperor himself!
Thanks for watching!

This is exactly what I thought when I just saw the images. That Sequence guy must be kicking himself, or sitting around talking to his computer or something equally crazy.
Good luck with the Kickstarter! I'm going to check everything out a little more when I'm home later, but I like the art and the concept could be fun.
We have a Wii U Devkit, we just need the kickstarter money to pay for it
Hey thanks! We're working on fixing a couple of niggling issues with the game.
I cant progress in the character selection screen. I put in my name, but then the continue button doesnt do anything (yes, I pressed enter after I entered my name). Also, when trying to exit the character selection screen, the new pop up wont let me select "No" when asking me whether I want to quit the game.
Yes we've gotten reports about that. The new fixed demo should be out today, including letting you progress in the screen easier.
You have to click "OK" on each option (including putting in a name) before clicking continue, however, I will be adding an event that "auto OK"s every option to make it easier.
Upcoming changes in the demo -
OH one more thing - E's will show up much more often now. As well as Q's, U's, W's, X's, Y's, and Z's will be much more rare.
Hopefully you guys will enjoy this!
- Balance
- The Eraser will hit for 3 damage normally, 5 damage when he enrages, and his enrage starts at 10 life not 15.
- You also overall deal 2 more damage to him as well.
- Bugfixes
- The How-To-Play screen is more user friendly.
- Pressing No when you don't want to exit works on Character Creation Screen and World Map respectively.
- If you press the "Continue" button on the Character Creation screen without selecting "OK" on all your options, it will give you an error now.
- The Abin fight will be unlocked from the start considering how difficult it was to get to it. Once you complete the Literati Eraser, you will go to the next screen where the full word sequence will be in the suggestion bar.

OK - loving this music...
An early version of this is in the game when you fight Abin D. Antz. The updated demo will have his fight unlocked from the start. Previously it was locked based on people out there sharing the words needed to unlocked, but it was too tough to even get to the screen where the words would come up. So I'm going to have it available as soon as you beat the Eraser.

Sorry that the KS isnt doing too hot Ashodin
Maybe it will do better in a few months if you try the KS again with an earlier/better demo.
Nah it's cool man, we got a solid plan ahead of us, we won't let this stop us!
Kickstarter Ends soon!

I haven't posted here in a while, but I've been working on more stuff while working on setting up a second Kickstarter to kick off in January. This time we'll spring back hard!
We've been working on getting the Map scrollable, and getting all the clickables clickable. Then it's setting up all the neat interfaces, from there, writing, more story, combat, all the works!
