Cyber Aces - Wishlist on Steam

Hey #PitchYaGame ! Cyber Aces: Hope is a story-driven, fast-paced action RPG with social simulation element. ⚔️Combat inspired by Musou and DMC 📗Choose moves to equip, no complex pattern 🤝Social simulation inspired by Persona and Kiseki Wishlist now on Steam!

Unfortunately, the equipment menu UI is still not done yet due to some old technical debt which took my time last week. I cannot show the UI today, but I will show it next week. #gamedev #indiegamedev

I'm still working on the equipment. The backend is done, but the management UI not yet, so still incomplete visually. The only one with visual are the equipped consumable items on the bottom right. They also have visual effect when used in combat. #gamedev #IndieGameDev

@HarishM612823 😆

@GreenCaladrius Combat looks insane 😱

I'm currently focus on the in-game menu UI, while fixing some bugs in combat occasionally. Since the UI is not done yet, I'll show the combat for today. #gamedev #indiedev

I'm using this style for the in-game menu UI as well so hopefully it will be solid as well 😆 I agree with the minimap icon size, it is important to make it bigger and it is also a quick fix 💪 For the square around the skill, I need to put it in my backlog first because it might require more time to implement and then test it. I'll look at it after the playtest. Thank you for your suggestion! 😊

@GreenCaladrius tbh the UI already looks pretty solid👌 i really like the map at the center showing the amount of enemies, tho maybe make the miniboss/bosses on the map red and bigger or just add a setting in the menu to customize that >>>

@LegionStudio24 Thanks! 😆

@GreenCaladrius The combat you're showing looks great! It's really well-polished. Congrats, my friend!

@TheK78071738 🔥

@GreenCaladrius Musou + rpg... please don't dissapoint.

The combat hint and collected items now use the same pop up on top left, just like the non-combat. I think it is better compared to putting the hint on bottom right like before. For the test I max out the drop rate so there's a lot of pop up. #gamedev #IndieGameDev

@devouring_gods Thank you! 😊

@GreenCaladrius Damn!!! This looks so sick!!!!! 👍✨. So much speed and Big BOOOM!! Energy!!!! I can’t wait to play it!!! 🖤

@AJMillsMusic The players will definitely like your banger music in the game 😎

If you haven’t yet, please wishlist Cyber Aces! Amazing action combat and social bonding mechanics. Im also a little biased because I have been fortunate enough to work on music for this lovely game!

@azrhyga Thank you 😄

@GreenCaladrius Subtle and nice way to inform about it!! Great job!!

An example of a small bonding scene. I spent time to think about the best way to communicate things such as stats increase to the player. I decided to do it via pop up messages which is simple and does not disrupt the dialogue with machine like text. #gamedev #indiedev

Posting combat again this week since I'm not done yet with the refinement of the non-combat part that I want to show. I'll show it next week. #gamedev #IndieGameDev

@Porecomesis Yes! I always like it when a game has such things, it makes me feel more invested in its world 😆

@GreenCaladrius Ooh, this looks sweet. :D Your combat looks fun as hell but every game benefits from a downtime where the player can simply relax and absorb the context.

Small preview for one of the non-combat mechanisms: social stat. Used to unlock/advance bonding with some characters, unlock events, etc. Got some good feedback about my weekly update here, so I will alternate between combat and non-combat post. #gamedev #indiedev

@Undertak3r86 I agree. That totally makes sense. Thank you for your reminder 😊

@GreenCaladrius I mean you do advertise is as being inspired by social sim from Persona and Kiseki so it's important to show those features besides combat

Trying to refine a buff skill while still focusing my time on the non-combat part. #gamedev #indiedev

A character has basic attacks, 4 chosen action moves, and 4 skills. You can chain them as you wish. Like attack > attack > attack > action move > attack > attack > skill. But different inputs won't result in different move. And I choose hack n slash because I was really obsessed with DW5 back then and until now nothing beats the feeling of combat in that game for me 😆

@GreenCaladrius Just to ask can you pull off multiple combos like in a Hack & Slash game? (x,x,x,y,y,y/x,y,x,y,x,y) If so what made you decide to make a hack & slash game?

@Undertak3r86 Yes, I'm thinking of doing things like characters introduction when I'm almost ready for the playtest 😉 And I can also show the non-combat mechanics once in a while. I thought they are less visual then combat for a post so I usually choose combat 😆

@GreenCaladrius Talking about non-combat, can we also get such posts about the overall story, character introduction, social sim elements and other mechanics? Y'know a simple non-combat overview post or video, assuming it's in a good enough state to show.

@TheRealRazzAce Thank you! 😊

@GreenCaladrius CAG musou is such a baller idea. Wishlisting this

@2YYXnito The pizza will be served once it is ready 😉

@GreenCaladrius It's like seeing a delicious pizza on the screen, but I can't taste it. Soooo frustrating
