WEEK 1 PROGRESS LOG:
Time for a little update on things. Also, let's have a chat afterwards!
==============================================================================================================================================
WEEK 1 TITLE: Spells, Problems, Balance, and More Spells!
This week, I decided to give spells a shot! I had some trouble with projectiles, but here ya go:
Spell of Flame!
Use style: Boomerang (for some reason)
Gives the debuff 'On Fire!'
Made with a Spell Tome and 10 Souls of Fright
The Spell of Flame is the first magic thing I've ever created in Terraria. And, boy, it was troublesome!
Spell of Shadow!
Use style: Boomerang (for some reason)
Give's the debuff 'Confused'
Made with a Spell Tome and 10 Souls of Night
The Spell of Shadow is yet another magical thing. Again, this update is all about magic!
Spell of Might (will change to Spell of Power)
Use style: Boomerang (this use style makes sense considering how the projectile looks)
Doesn't give a debuff, just looks cool and is very powerful!
Made with a Spell Tome and 10 Souls of Might
The Spell of Might (Power) is a magical item that has a different looking projectile and isn't just a recoloring of the Flame Projectile! (Initiate 'Yays')
Also balanced some things, will balance values of items later.
==============================================================================================================================================
EDIT: I worked really hard this morning to make up for the fact that I only have 3 items for the first week, so here, have 3 more!
(projectile not needed) Spell of Shine (DOES NOT WORK YET)
Gives the player the buffs 'Shine' and 'Night Owl'
Made with a Spell Tome and 10 Souls of Light
The Spell of Shine! AKA the start of another spell that will piss me off when coding!
Spell of Knockback
Use style: Magic Missile (kinda)
Made with a Spell Tome and 10 Souls of Flighr
Control your knockback into one shot!... except you can't move it around with your cursor for some reason.
Spell of Knives
Use style: Throwable (Throwing knives, shurikens, etc.)
Made with a Spell Tome and 10 Souls of Sight
A spell that shoots poisonous knives!
Next week's update includes the final spell, balancing, and an updated download link!
==============================================================================================================================================
Now that that's over, let's have a chat!
I want to make Never Helmets, and Never Chestplates, and other cool armor, but I have ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA how to sprite it. For example, I can create the armor, but I don't know how to actually make it move around when wearing it. If one of you could help me sprite armors (or at least give me a link to a good armor spriting instruction thing), then I will love you in a non-homosexual way forever! Thanks for the help!
