Golden Leaf Defence Force


As anticipated last week, I got to work on the new quest, specifically on one of the gameplay sections (the quest should have 3 major ones). This will be the opening section, right after the quest intro and the preliminary choices you can make before the quest properly starts.

It's going to play a bit like a simple, turn-based Plants Vs. Zombies. You get to direct your attacks on the encroaching enemies, and you must make sure to stop them before they reach your defenses. It's not meant to be very long, but it has some flexible options for players to use, so hopefully it's fun. Balance still needs time but presentation and gameplay are mostly finished. Without giving too much away, you also get an easier time if you befriended the minotaur village, so it should be nice to see how your previous efforts pay off and there are some choices from the intro that also play a part, so I am sure it will at least be fulfilling once it plays out.

Not much else to report, though. I have fixed a few typos and looked into some stuff for future updates (I got a few comments from various websites which took some time to parse, and reply to concerning possible improvements), but the bulk of my time was spent figuring out the details of the gameplay. I was tempted to make the section longer and with more mechanics, but I think it's better to keep it simple, since the quest will have other gameplay mechanics to rely on. The second section, for example, should be a more straightforward fight, although previous choices and efforts will also play a part on the difficulty there.

Anyway, that's about it for now. I can't say for sure if the quest will be finished this month, but it's probably a safer bet to put together some "accessible" content for the month, just in case I have to push it to september. Whatever the case, more info on the game coming soon, so stay tuned! ^_^

As time goes on, I inevitably get less comments, so it's nice to hear they are still worthwhile.
