Regulator City devlog update

Regulator City devlog update

More game development this week, taken straight from the developer’s TODO list and task management, here’s an overview of what has been fixed, changed, updated, improved or generally worked on in the Orangepixel Universe.

Been working on a new interface screen that allows you to assign skill-points to your team member. This was a “random” event where the player had no control over which skills were assigned or upgraded, so now we give you that freedom to train your NPC members.

Still have to figure out how the Skill items will be handed out or given.. and if they have a set order, or player can select in any order.

 

Non NPC’s will level-up based on what they do during missions (take out enemies, etc). But besides those you will be able to pickup Training manuals for extra skill-point credits and now also Specialist manuals which will allow you to unlock a specialty skill for your team member

 

Collected skill credits can be used when your team member levels-up during fights/missions. With the player now able to pick which specialty the team member gets and in which order you unlock them.. Bit of a work figuring this all out and building it, but think the result was worth it!
