I have been working on several things lately: Keyboard shortcuts for quickbar, adding  soundManager,  combat calculations based on damage/armor lookup table, item cooldown and  restricting map teleporting.

While playtesting the game lately, I had noticed that the combat was bit boring, so I decided to try different approach. Instead of relying to automatic melee based on weapon speed, I set up an action based melee system. So now you need to “swing” the weapon yourself, by pressing the quickbar slot (  I [...]

I have made nice progress again. I implemented an  item transfer to the quest system, and I also have a world map teleport functionality up.

I have made good progress with the project. Item saving now works well, and I managed to create a quest system in a very short time. Here is how it works:

What’s the use of having different weapons, if you cant find out the differences? Giving player needed information is vital for good game playing experience.

I _finally_ got the inventory system working. There still is small bug, but its usable now.
