Devlog #0: Upcoming Updates and Direction ~ new Beginning
[p][/p][h3]š®~ About Developer[/h3][p]Hi everyone! Thank you all for supporting Tomomon so far. I'm Gia, and I'm responsible for everything in Tomomon. For a long time, Iāve been a pretty low-key guy. I donāt usually enjoy talking about myself or what Iām working onāmostly because I just donāt have the time. Iāve been soloing about 80% of the game development, so yeah⦠over the past seven years, Iāve barely had time to make any devlogs, even though Iāve really wanted to. However, I will start to write my devlog from now on so people can follow what I'm working on. [/p][p][/p][p]With version 1.0 of the game now complete, I finally have more time to share the vision behind it. I truly want people to see what Iāve been building and to support this journey. These past few months, Iāve had to do some outside work to keep the project going. But now, Iāve got a few months free to focus fully on Tomomon updates. Iām super excited to share what Iāve been working on, and whatās coming next in the updates. So, here we go![/p][p][/p][h3]āØ~ About Upcoming Updates[/h3][p]š² New Monsters:[/p][p]Of courseāthatās what brought us all here, right? We all love collecting and taming monsters, so working on new ones is always the most exciting part, isnāt it? Here are the some of new monster designs:[/p][p][/p][p]Jiangoo - was born from sacred springwater said to hold the wisdom of ancient generals. Despite its bouncy, harmless form, the helmet it wears glows with radiant light, allowing it to command other slimes in battle. It shines brightest when protecting weaker Tomomon.[/p][p]
[/p][p][/p][p]Skulmaw - hides beneath a skull helmet, with a cursed tomahawk embedded in its head. Itās said to be formed from the regret of fallen warriors. The green glow of its axe pulses when danger is near. Trainers report it vanishes into shadows when not watched directly.[/p][p]
[/p][p][/p][p]Yanbeng - leads with honor and burns with pride. Its crimson armor is forged in sacred fire and can withstand volcanic heat. In battle, it channels ancient war cries to rally allies and intimidate foes. Its burning mane glows brighter when defending the weak.[/p][p]
[/p][p][/p][p]Dragmour - forges its armor from the bones of ancient dragons, binding their spirits to its will. Its skull-plated wings emit an eerie hum when it flies at night. Legends say it guards the boundary between life and death, attacking those who disturb the resting place of fallen dragons.[/p][p]
[/p][p]...and many more are coming along as well.[/p][p]Personally, I really love Dragmour. Since I'm a huge fan of Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh, I think people can guess where his design inspiration comes from š[/p][p][/p][p]šŗļø New Areas:[/p][p]On the next updates, I will focus on expand the map to the sea area and the island at the bottom left corner of the world map. So yeah, many more Water Tomomons are coming too~[/p][p]
[/p][p][/p][p]š® More MiniGames:[/p][p]Iāve always had a deep love for the vibe of retro arcade stores from the '90s. The colorful lights, the sound of pixelated games, the clinking of tokens, and that pure sense of excitement and discovery. It all stuck with me so that's why I want to bring that feeling into the arcade store of Tomomon. I will work on 1 or 2 more new minigames to make the arcade become more interesting spot for players to stop by.[/p][p]
[/p][p]š  The Others:[/p][p]New Mechanic :[/p][p]I'm also researching a new mini-mechanic within Tomomon's gameplay ā something similar to a Mystery Dungeon mode, but it will be a Dungeon Raid system where players overcome challenges and earn valuable items, gear, and special Tomomons.[/p][p][/p][p]Refated Contents :[/p][p]To support former players who have already finished the game multiple times, Iāll be adding more end-game refated content such as:[/p]
- [p]Exclusive Areas[/p]
 - [p]Exclusive Refated Chests[/p]
 - [p]Exclusive Items and Gears[/p]
 - [p]Exclusive Refated Skills.[/p]
