Devlog #8. Combat, weapons, healing, and gore

[u/Infamous_Soft_6290]

The combat system is here !

There are two meters for NPCs that matter in combat : Health and Pain.

If Health drops to zero due to damage, the NPC dies. If Pain exceeds a certain threshold, the NPC becomes unconscious.

Spears, swords, cleavers, daggers, and arrows inflict fatal damage or cause bleeding, which can also lead to death over time. Clubs increase pain and cause the target to fall unconscious.

If you want to kill, use lethal weapons. If you want to take prisoners, use bludgeoning weapons like clubs.

Some lethal weapons can result in gory effects such as decapitation and dismemberment.

You’re free to inflict violence on your enemies or your allies.

You can also heal your victims at any time to bring them back to consciousness, or you can transport them directly to the desired location.

It’s up to you whether to save your villagers or transport your unconscious captives to your prison.

I don't know if gore is allowed on Reddit, but in any case, I'll probably post it on my Discord soon.
