Super Tobu Adventures!! - Day 05 - Melee Combat

Day 05 - Melee Combat

Melee is finally in now! Not pretty, I know, but the mechanics are in place. I’ll be added more melee weapons to give different play feel, the same as for ranged. Right now, each character has a hit counter that will affect animations later (think the attack sequences from 16-bit arcade beat-em ups) they also have damage multipliers etc. Also Uka is MUCH stronger and faster than Tobu at melee ;)

• Fists - bare knuckle brawling, combo chains, etc
• Katana - think Leonardo from TMNT
• Sai’s - can be used to disarm melee enemies that carry weapons
• Nunchaku - can be used to deflect enemy projectiles
• Bo-Staff - slow but long range, hits are weak but it hits a wide area
• Whip - slowest with longest range, narrow hit area but high damage
• ??? - suggestions? Lol 7 weapons are ideal due to narrative themes!

Also in now are jump/fall-through platforms. I’d been meaning to get them in for a while and just kept putting it off, but no longer! Also, they react to your weight, even if just in a really simplified way… I’d like to expand on that later as the environments become more sophisticated!! At any rate, just gotta keep pushing forward!
