GearHead Caramel Exploration and Combat Working
Both exploration and combat are now working in GearHead Caramel… if you can forgive the fact that the enemy pilots fight like they’re drunk. Right now they just pick a random weapon, try to attack a random target, and if that doesn’t work out they walk randomly. I am hoping to release a playable demo …

All The Missiles
It’s a bit hard to see the shot animations on the video (especially since I only fired one missile), so here’s a gif of a BuruBuru launching (and hitting with!) all 20 of its missiles at once. In GearHead Caramel the missiles anim shows how many missiles were fired, letting you know at once just …

Sorry for the inconvenience.

GearHead Caramel Effect System
This week, I got the modular effect system working in GearHead: Caramel. This is pretty much the same effect system as used by Dungeon Monkey Eternal, but generalized and expanded to handle the GearHead rule system. The two effects needed for a basic attack (AttackRoll and DoDamage) work, and there is a new option to …
