Devlog 13 - Frozen Area Preview:

The Mythical, Underground Mines of Swipey Rogue are divided into 4 themed areas, each with their own unique gameplay elements. The Molten Area has been demonstrated so now it's time to show the Frozen Area!

Frozen Area Gameplay Mechanics:

These are the gameplay mechanics that are found in the Frozen Area:

• cold damage (-1 HP / second)
• falling icicles (get hit & die)
• ice ball turrets (get hit & die)
• slick ice (can't change direction once you walk on it)
• freezing water (fall in & die)
• cracked ice (cross once, then it breaks and becomes freezing water)

Frozen Area Screenshots:

Below are a selection of screenshots from some of the rooms in the Frozen Area.

Thanks for checking in on progress. Still lots of work to do, but lots of momentum happening so everything is rolling along. The Gadget Area will be demonstrated next week! :)
