Hello, and happy Screenshot Saturday! This week, we've been working hard on enemy AI, and are happy to show it off!

Out of the enemies planned for this area, 4 of them are complete! We're going to be taking a look at 3 of them today: the Almusclenac, Arachnovel, and Fantasy Fiends!

The Almusclenac is a physical attacker focused on using the Sun and Moon signs. It's focused on building up it's own Attack first, and launching an assault once powered up enough! Thankfully, it's weak to poison as well.

The Arachnovel's focus is on speed and striking hard and fast with the Moon and Star signs: it's going to try and lower your defense, and target those whom it's slowed down with a poison attack! It doesn't have too much bulk though - one or two good hits oughta do the trick.

Finally, the Fantasy Fiends are the first example (unless you're a REAL old player) of an enemy with more than 2 signs! On odd turns it's going to opt for the Sun sign and either spew fire or roar, and on even turns it'll go either Moon or Planet, depending on the enemy party's HP! Knowing its patterns is the key to victory!

Of course, if you don't know what Signs are or how the battle system works, you can see for yourself with trying our demo! You can play it either in browser or download it at https://majimjam.itch.io/hyadesrpg! Let us know if you give it a go!

For now, stay safe, take care, and have fun!
