Blood & Ash news+

Posted by mattthew_h on June 14, 2008, 10:36 p.m.

As you may have seen at the top of this post, I have a new banner, a "Blood & Ash" themed one.

Although it is very basic at the moment, I was just wondering what you all thourght of it.

Anyways, I have added in some physics to Blood & Ash, as well have added some of the HUD (Heads Up Display).

I am hoping to add more weapons to the game later tonight, such as, a long bow, a short bow, a short sword, mace (Not very middle east themed I know) & possibly some more.

You basic weapon in the game currently is a Samurai sword.

EDIT: I just thourght of another weapon, a flail, If I have any other weapon ideas, I will post them too.

I may have some screen shots later this week, maybe.

Mmm… What style gameplay are you going for?

Maybe, but the game is based more around the 15th-14th centry, but maybe a mythical-type stone launcher, hand-held of course. =D

If anyone has anymore suggestions, please state them, all help is greatly appreciated, great & small.

Oh & BTW (By The Way), it is a Japanise Samurai-ish style game.

BTW doesn't work if every time you use it, you write it in full anyway :P

@Banner, it's… a good concept, but too basic right now.

@Game, sounds fun, actually.

Yes, I thourght that the Banner was very basic ATM (At The Moment), But I am working on a newer one ATM (At The Moment).

It is looking pretty good I say, but, I need to make it a teeny-tiny bit more detailed than it already is.

Also, Is there any limit on the pixel size of the banners?

Anymore weapon idea's?

Lastly, @PY: I only do the "BTW (By The Way) or ATM (At The Moment) because some people don't know what it means, I know, sad, but I think that after this post, I will only write it in full or the abbreviation & thanks, I hope that everyone will enjoy it when it is finished!

You have two options, matt, you write it out or you abbreviate. Don't do both at once, that's just silly haha!

I can't remember the limits, my banner is the maximum size I think so use its dimensions.

I'd suggest you have a small, delicate katana-style sword and a massive beserker sword that is slower but does more damage. I'm liking the flail and mace, perhaps you could have nunchaku with blades.

Thanks for that feedback Juju, It really does help to know what the people who are possibly going to be playing it, had an input with what weapons they get to use, Unlock, buy & trade.

Also, I will have a search of some of thoughts weapons on the internet, to get some more infomation about them.

I might have alpha one of "Blood & Ash" out by about Christmas time, so, not to far way, but plenty of time to get it already.
