Spellblade

“Spellblade is a character mod created for the game Your Only Move is Hustle, a versatile stance character that can activate different runes to change their game-plan on the fly.”

Spellblade is a custom character I created in my own time for the game Your Only Move Is HUSTLE.

• Character & Kit Design: I fully created Spellblade myself, including all character details and moves. They are a unique stance-switching character that makes use of elemental magic combined with sword based combat.
• Systems Design: I implemented all mechanics and unique aspects of the character as an integrated mod in Godot, including systems that have not been done before in the modding community.
• Art: I created all artwork for base Spellblade, working with a community sprite artist to create a unique skin for the character that changes Spellblade's design and implements never-before-seen features in skin customisation.
• Godot Implementation: I used this project to learn Godot and become familiar with the engine, and am now at a level of proficiency similar to my Unity experience.
• Documentation: I made use of another community created mod, Codex, to write out full player readable documentation to reference for the character.
• Balance and Iteration: I continue to tune the character toward vanilla balance, using community feedback, playtesting, and regular patches to refine the kit.
