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…

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…

This Saturday I’m taking it easy and passing on the blog duties to our resident Animancer, Nyka! Enjoy all the slimy movement! -Joe Hello Obelisk fans! Over in the animation department, I’ve been working hard on bringing our first mob, the Glub, to life & thought I would share the spoils of some of my…

Ben has done it again! Haha, happy Saturday everyone. Today we have a small, but really cool update. It’s gross and it comes to you in the form of the Puke Rat! These tiny undead abominations have begun to swarm in the dungeons beneath the Obelisk. They’re not hard stop by themselves, but there’s just…

It’s Saturday and it’s time to update the DotO Update Blog! Last week, I talked about a small delay that we had. Now we have Prototype 3 and I’ve been playing it nonstop. I feel like it’s a really good sign that I’m enjoying it so much. We only have one dungeon and the single…

Games are very complicated, it turns out! I knew it going in, but sometimes you can know something but still not fully comprehend it till it actually happens. Don’t worry, we’re still making great progress. In fact, Kel is nearing completion of Prototype 3. This one is going to have the first implementation of all…

It’s still Saturday night, and um, I didn’t forget to blog all day today… But yeah, It’s Saturday and we recorded our fourth podcast episode yesterday. That means it’s been over 8 weeks since we really started this whole project. (That episode should be out later tomorrow…) Earlier tonight I tried to stream our second…

The big news this week here at Knob Cat Games is Minor Stats! Kel has been working hard to get them in the prototype! Let me explain. DotO is going to have three types of stats: Major, Minor, and Non-Combat. Major Stats are your Constitution, Strength, Dexterity, and Karma. These are used to determine a…

It’s Saturday again (for another hour or two) and I’m here for a DotO update blog! A lot has happened in the past week, the biggest thing being our character creator. We can now make a character and use that character to play in our prototype. It may not be a huge thing really, but…

It’s Saturday, so it’s time for an update blog! I don’t know, can a sewer look amazing? Green slime oozes it’s way down channels in the first few levels under the mysterious Obelisk. Maybe it’s connected to the sewers of Topia? Glub have started pouring out of the sewers and attacking local cats! If only…
