Throne Rooms

Marigold is finally in as one of the main quest givers... she's kind of the plot engine and narrator, as she remains a constant even if you lose an individual PC.





Here the player is approaching her for the first time.  Below, she's talking to her:


The fallen members of her former raid party against the Siren appear, mostly as HCG, but not all of them are dead or defeated.  You can use town portal scrolls yourself, or give them to fallen NPCs or PCs so they can make it back to town.




I probably need to give some contrast to the inventory screen, as well as make it pop up when you try to use items in combat.

Noxico

So, there aren't a lot of adult roguelikes, but Noxico is trying to fix that:

It's still pretty early in development, but it looks like it's going to be an interesting game, and more "rogue-like" than my current project.  Kind of like Corruption of Champions as more of an RPG.

As for Dungeon of Lost Maidens, I'm still progressing (slowly) which is about as a good as it's going to get through August.  More town work done, installed the key vendor and the temple.
