Dev Log |Episode.005: Time to show our Versatile Mix-and-Match Monsters

[p][/p][p]How was everyone's holiday that just passed? Did you go out, or have a good rest at home?[/p][p]On the first day back to work after the holiday, after receiving a lot of special - local - product snacks, we have also been continuously improving the basic gaming experience. Today, let's share with you some progress in our monster design.[/p][p]The core goal of this system is very clear: to make each monster bring you a little "surprise".[/p][p][/p][h3]Random model color shifts[/h3][p]Put simply, we added a random dye job feature for monsters. We set up a custom color palette for each monster model. When a monster spawns, the system grabs a random color from it and slaps it on—so you might run into a lavender zombie, or a neon green goblin. [/p][p][/p][p][/p][h3]Random Part Combinations[/h3][p]If changing colors is like giving monsters a new "skin tone," then random part combinations are like dressing them in different "gear."[/p][p][/p][p]We split this into multiple parts that can have gear configured independently—think head, shoulders, chest armor, leg armor, and weapon slots. Each part has its own pool of gear to choose from randomly. When a monster spawns, the system randomly assigns a piece of gear to each part, one by one.[/p][p][/p][p]Now this is the real "mix-and-match"! No need to say more about how awesome this is!
