Devlog #2: Summoning Progress and Power-Ups!

Devlog #2: Summoning Progress and Power-Ups!

Greetings, fellow seekers of the Outer Dark! 🌌 Since our last magical meetup, the dark forces have been busy, and I'm thrilled to unveil a treasure trove of new features and upgrades in Embers of the Outer Dark! Prepare to have your minds mystified and your souls... slightly singed.

✨ New Magical & Melee Mechanics ✨

• Melee Madness: We kicked things off with the mighty Punch—a true classic! But power-ups await the intrepid, and with each weapon pickup, your arsenal grows deadlier. Now you can wield a Dagger or go all-out with a Mace. Each weapon brings its unique punch, stab, or swing to the fray, all instantly equipped upon pickup—no fumbling in dark corridors required! [Animations need tweaking, but hey, we are still prototyping !]
• Smooth Weapon Switching: Found a new weapon? Boom, it’s in your hand! Want to go back to fists? Simply hit a key, and the old favorites return. Each weapon waits in the shadows until summoned, ready for action.

🛠️ Enchanted Pickups and Spells 🛠️

• Weapon Pickups: Weapons aren’t given—they’re earned! Discover the dagger and Mace scattered throughout our dark realms. Just remember, each weapon upgrade is a double-edged sword. Choose wisely which beast to bestow your powers upon.
• Spellcasting Wizardry: We haven’t just been waving fists around! The spellcasting system continues to grow, letting you rain fireballs and more magical mayhem on unsuspecting foes. Each spell feels powerful, and I can’t wait to share more spell upgrades in the next update!

🎨 Immersive Visuals and Effects 🎨

• Weapon Attach Points: Each weapon now lives at your side, seamlessly in hand, adding to the game’s rich and immersive feel. Look down, and you’ll see your dagger gleam in the shadows or the hammer’s deadly heft, waiting for its turn to smash!

Stay tuned for Devlog #3 where we plunge deeper into spellcraft, explore darkened levels, and whisper tales of upcoming enemies (or are they whispering to us...?). Until next time, remember: the dark awaits only those brave enough to wield its power!
