DEVLOG 5
I added a mechanic that acts as both health and currency: blood. The idea is that killing enemies gives blood, getting hit loses blood, and saving blood can be used for upgrades. Balancing it this way will require a lot of thinking about game theory, but hopefully it’ll make gameplay more risk-intense while still being engaging and rewarding. I designed this UI block based on old Flash games and I’m going to try to lean toward that aesthetic.
