Version 1.0.0 Launch


Heya folks! I'm happy to announce the first major publication of my Project Twitch fangame prototype. This is mostly to show what I've been working on for half a year of development in a decently playable state. This project in particular took 4 iterations to get to the root mechanics that I personally felt satisfied with. 

The game itself is a mesh of Twitch's original kit from League of Legends and, surprisingly, Aphelios kit since his ammo management system helps give a satisfying risk/reward to Twitch's ambushing. Also, compared to other roguelikes, the plan for this game is that you don't necessarily get physically stronger by simply increasing strengths and powers. In this game, you'll accumulate recipes which increases Twitch's ability to adapt with loot drops and make powerful Poison Vial combinations. The game itself is in a prototype stage with unfinished textures, only 2 actual models, and stock sound effects.

I'll probably work on a game design doc in the near future, but otherwise, I think I'll be taking a break from this project to work on others. If I were to move further, I think I would need an actual art direction and sound direction.

I will come back to this project in the future though. If I were to work on this project further, I would've added..

  • Procedural Dungeon Generation
  • Drinking Side Effects that allows Twitch to get a powerful temporary buff at the significant cost of ammo
  • More general side effects (Optimally I would want 40 side effects, 10 for each Side Effect type)
  • Recipe Add-Ons: Add-ons that you can add to a recipe to make it stronger. If you make a vial with a recipe with an add-on, you get that add-on buff in addition to a side effect
  • More enemy types that aren't the simple 3 you see in the game
  • Shop: Featuring Chump Whump from Legends of Runeterra
  • Recycling Function: be able to convert 1 type of ingredient to another type of Ingredient
  • More dialogue / Character interactions
  • Potentially more Dungeons with unique Mechanics: It was planned that a single run of this game would include 4 dungeons / sections. The prototype only shows what a singular dungeon would've looked like
  • More Bosses: Plans include Professor Von Yipp, Cait/Vi, and ZAC potentially. The warwick boss you see here probably shouldn't be the first boss, but will be a model on what a boss would look like in this game.
