Tomes of Mephistopheles - Development Update

by Dhruin, 2012-04-25 00:49:00

Kot-in-Action has kicked up an update for for their indie first-person dungeon-crawler Tomes of Mephistopheles:

Character Saving, Inventory, Spell Book and Quick Bar in Progress

Just a quick update on what's currently in progress:

Mouse Driven Inventory:
It will start with 25 slots, and items will be stackable. For those who like to keep things organized, you will be able to arrange items any way you like.

Spell Book:
Simply a list of spells you have available so that you can place them on the quick bar.

Quick Bar:
Items and spells can be placed on the quick bar and activated on the fly with keys 0-9, or any other key you've rebound them to. Using up an inventory item will not remove the shortcut from the quick bar, as it will assume you would like to keep the shortcut for when you pick up more of the same item later.

Character Saving/Loading:
Before choosing, generating, or joining a world, you will be able to create a character or choose an existing one from a list to be loaded upon entering a world. Single player characters and multi-player characters are currently the same, so you can play offline, then join a server later with that same character, retaining the inventory, skills, health, and mana, and saving upon leaving the world.

This update may take time as there are many things involved that all must be implemented at the same time, but I will keep you updated with screenshots of the GUI as development progresses.

And of course, bug fixes are happening as well.
