[Loot Cave and Branching Characters]

Welcome back. Hero I is gaining a whole new level of depth as I type. Remember how you will be able to choose characters for the P3 and P4 slots? Well instead of just stupid, unused and silent P3 and P4 characters, they will actually take place in conversation and scenes. Check it out. I've also been at work updating the DBS, World map, and all its playable areas for the demo. My current project, Loot Cave. Loot cave features two customized switch/lever minigames, in which you switch on certain switches to activate certain bridges, make paths, etc. There are also hidden rewards, and this dungeon is, in my opinion not too lengthy-but lengthy enough to feature fire monsters, a boss battle, and the finish to the sidequest, that is, if you signed up. Without further adieu, it's time for screenshots.
In this scene you can clearly see that Loot Cave isn't just open in the beginning of the demo, but always- because you can either explore it alone as Ephren, or come back when you've gotten any of the characters you desire! In the screen you can see Ephren, Match, the beautiful Alina, and Vander.Oho. Boss battle! One of the first real boss battles I've designed in the demo. Just wait and see the ones to come. This battle has a bit of a difficulty level I'd say, unless you have a good strategy, or you bring along Match and the gang. Right off the bat the boss and the imps hit you with flame breaths, causing a ton of damage and possibly the Bleeding Condition. But if you can manage enough damage before they get a shot, they'll no longer hit you with flame breath making the fight a helk of a lot easier. Here it is, the Loot that you find when you complete the cave. If you've a mind to think with- you'll probably see that this amount is ridiculous, and yes it is. A little too true to believe. Apparently someone has already Looted Loot Cave, leaving you with only two of these purple chests to open at the end (and a crap-load of secret chests in the cave) but don't let that get you down, the Sidequest offers a ton of good rewards anyway.

Thanks for stopping by, just wait until the demo is released!
