I am still working on Diabolica, albeit slowly the last few months due to a number of other things. Though here this last week I've been working a good amount, specifically on the class/skill/progression mess that has been a prominent mess in my project for a long while. A lot of information on the game page is also outdated / misleading, so I ought to update that soon.

the premise of the game still remains the same, though i got rid of character classes in favor of learning skills from equippable items specifically meant for learning skills (and nothing else), what exactly that idea will be like will be elaborated on later, of course once i can get it to actually WORK

i am becoming more satisfied or less perfectionistic about this project, especially now that i have the desire to work on other games that diabolica is taking my free time from. though given that i go to school all week and then work 7 days a week i am pretty short on free-time nowadays,,, but i have been saying i'd finish this game for years and i am determined to get it done

once i finish a few more things, mostly the skill system thing, and skill fusions which i will also explain later, all that remains for me to do is map out the dungeons, create the enemy and boss battles, execute the story in there somehow, add in a few easter eggs and other little details, and then do rigorous bug-testing and play-testing for balance. which is actually a lot of work, but

things are going well! sorry for lack of updates!

Rock on. Good to see you're still alive, Adon.

By the way, what's the significance of 95 floors? Why not 99, 100 or 108?

i am indeed still living!

95 floors is all that i could think of content for... each group of 5 floors is themed, and so 95 / 5 themes makes 19 branches

i plan on having a post-game branch with optional superbosses of some sort, so this would make 100 floors and 20 branches, but for the game to be completed 95 is the number
