I’ve finally started some CRAWL Dev streams!

I’ve got a new computer that can handle my streaming needs, so I’ve been streaming work animating new monsters for Crawl.

>>Check out our channel HERE<<

You should be able to watch my last two streams up there, where I animate the all new giant mega blobfish, and drink a bunch of tea 🙂 Hopefully I can keep it up and do this as a regular thing every week!

**UPDATE** sorry guys, the streams are lost to the ether! I was planning on backing them up to Youtube, but I got busy and they got deleted by Twitch- turns out they only stay up for 2 weeks if you don’t make them into highlights. Anyway, it was a fun time, and a good learning experience- hopefully I can get streaming more regularly from here on in!

Finally got this one out woooooo! v0.9

Well, the hero intros that I thought would take a few weeks ended up taking months, but we’ve finally got them in there, along with a whole bunch of new monsters 🙂

You can see the monsters there, and check out some examples of our randomly-generated intros here:

Our buddy Old Shrimpeyes really came though with the goods for the voiceover, with about 250 new lines recorded so hopefully they don’t get boring too quick!

Have fun with it guys, and as always don’t hesitate to comment here or in the Steam forums and let us know if you’ve got ideas on tweaks and improvements, or if you find and sneaky bugs that slipped through Dave’s withered fingers!

Monster time again woo!

Making new monsters is the best part of my job 🙂 I’m trying to put a bunch in this time, as it has been a long wait!

I won’t necessarily get all these guys in, this is just a concept doodle as I think out how the avolution chain might work.

Statue Worship!

Here is the work-in-progress intro animation for the boss, where the Shaman gives him life 🙂 Obviously there’s a lot more work to do, but you should get the basic idea of what it’s going to look like.

A little glimpse at animations for the latest boss

It has been a while with no updates while we work on this boss, so I thought I’d start sharing some GIFs to tide you over while you wait 🙂

The next boss is a big gold statue brought to life, and this is the shaman who gives him that life with his voodoo spell.
