    What we did in 2024: the first year of dev on our retro RPG wraps up in style!

    A roundup of the first year of Lair of the Leviathan dev, from powerful in-game editors to gorgeous pixel art maps.

    Greetings, adventurers! It's time for a wrap up on what's been going on in the development of Lair of the Leviathan this year.

    Firstly, thanks for all your feedback on the great "Top Down vs Side View" debate of 2024! The battle was fierce but in the end, you voted overwhelmingly in favour of the Top Down view. ( Someone actually pointed out to me this is actually a 90 degree isometric view, but that doesn't really roll off the tongue, so top view it is.)

    Reflecting on this, I think you guys are right. Both David and I love the visual look of the side-on view, but from a gameplay perspective, keeping things consistent with the world map and exteriors ( which are top down ) just makes way more sense. This also allows us to stage combats inside interiors, and allows me to just use the same code for regular buildings like armourers and taverns, as well as dungeons. Anything that saves me time is a good thing!
