Well, the holidays are over and we’re all getting back to work here at Knob Cat Games. It’s definitely nice to have a break and take things easy for a bit, but I’m definitely excited to get back into developing this game. Ben is starting work on designing our next dungeon mob. It’s going to…

Working Hard!
Hi everyone, I hope you all had a great holiday. Today’s DotO Blog Update is a bit of a non-update. We are all currently working hard, but we’re kind of in between things that I can show you. Last week we saw the big Turn Meter update and I’m still super hyped about it. Now,…

Our New Turn Meter
It’s Saturday evening and for this DotO Update Blog I want to tell you all about our new Turn Meter! Since our game is turn-based it is super important to know when your turn is coming up and when the enemies are going to be attacking you. We originally had little bars under everyone that…

UI Design!
We’re hammering away at a lot of stuff here at Knob Cat. Kel is hard at work on Prototype 4. Nyka is animating the disgusting Puke Rat. And Ben has been hard at work on our UI. That’s the User Interface for the combat in our game. It’s the HP and Mana meters that show…
