Weekly Roundup 234 - New Enemy Type - Grabber

Added 2025-06-13 15:41:42 +0000 UTC

Hi everyone,

I've been working away in photoshop on some new enemy art assets for the Bindmancer. Let's get into it!

1: What's New?

I think it was time to develop a new enemy type for the dungeon. After consideration of what kind of gameplay mechanic the enemy could bring to the game I decided to go with the flyer design. I have some ideas of this enemy moving in quickly from a longer distance to "Swoop" the player.

The first step is to create the artwork for this enemy that can be used in Unity. So that's been the target of the week.

In total so far we're got the Front, Back, Sideways assets in flat color, and the "Captured" model in flat color. This is going to be an enemy much like the mimic chest or Golem that once its got you the animation plays in the dungeon itself. Not a unique encounter screen.

2: What's Next?

Next week will be completing these art assets. There's a few not pictured here like the destroyed assets or the escape state assets that need to be created as well.

Once these assets have been finalized it's then getting them into unity to animate and then work on the new enemy type!

I hope you all like what you're seeing!
