Post news Report RSS ADVENTURE CRAFT: Blog #43 WEREWOLVES

I love werewolves. There's not enough werewolf stuff. I am adding werewolves! Come witness the birth of a werewolf.

Posted by on

I decided that I it was time to add more scary stuff for the night time gameplay, so what better creature to add in than one of my all time favorite monsters. The werewolf. Just look at this scene. It's just begging for more werewolf.

I thought that it might interesting to show how the drawing of the werewolf evolved. At first I decided to try and draw it standing up but the way that it was going didn't feel right to me so I ended up making it more hunched over and ape like. Once I had that shape I added in the details and I was happy with the result. Fun fact: Werewolves never brush their teeth.

Here is his run cycle! Still a work in progress! I wanted him to have a very vicious and menacing looking run. When he comes at you from the darkness it should be frightening. For now I will add him as a normal part of night time, but will probably limit the appearance of werewolves to nights with a full moon later.


And here is how he will look in the game! Watch out he's right behind you!

Not sure if it's in the game, but it would be hilarious and crappy, if you could invite an npc with skills to stay with you and they turn into a werewolf on you. But loving the werewolf sprite look!

At the moment I can set an NPC to simply follow you and they will stay with you and attack whatever their AI instructs them to. There are a couple of fun Paladin NPCs that will appear and defend you during one of the night scenarios. Also we have plans to allow certain monsters to "infect" other characters. The werewolf will eventually have this power too and if you get infected, you will be able to become a werewolf during the full moon!
