Devbulge: Game Class Art
🕑 Added 2018-10-10 22:05:40 +0000 UTC If you saw the booklet I posted earlier. You will know this game will feature a class sytem. Much akin to the classic RPG classes but MUSICALLY THEMED.I drew up some fancy images to be used for the Kickstarter video and possibly other promo stuff. I'm not sure if they'll be in the game. The idea is that these images will show up to introduce a class as the characters explain/transition through them during the video. IT'LL BE FUN.
Speaking of FUN, I had a lot of FUN with the TYPOGRAPHY for all these. A lot of variety in the fonts to capture each class. I think I did a pretty good job!!! I'm gonna explain them a little one by one:
1) HEADBANGER - This game's equivalent of a BERSERKER-TYPE, hits hard but low defence and can hurt self out of pure RECKLESSNESS. The closest music genre to this class is general hard rock/metal I suppose.
2) GOTH - Excels in NOT FEELING A THING. Has great immunity to things, especially status effects. Also Briff looks hella cool as a goth LET'S BE REAL. I imagine Briff will be pumping out some serious NINE INCH NAILS-TYPE INDUSTRIAL beats as this class.
3) SHOW-OFF - Faye's the lead guitarist so obviously this is her default class (hence why she's Pink most of the time) but Ian can be one too! He loves to show off too, albeit usually through his muscles rather than musical ability. Show-offs are FAST and big on HIGH-RISK moves that have a chance to fail.
4) SAMPLER - Yeah that says Sampler in the image. Might need to tweak that so it's more legible? Ehh, maybe it's fine, WHAT DO YOU THINK? Sampler is a fun one cause it involves using the enemies own moves against them. Like a blue mage of sorts.
5) DISTORTER - Clearly the sickest class. Probably the best class logo as well. Big on laying down the crippling riffs, debuff them to hell. SATANIC BABY. BLACK METAL.
Of course, those are only 5 of the 9 classes in the game. MORE LATER.

Yes! I have been thinking about access to a discord as a Kickstarter tier reward. Of course, Patrons would have access too. If you're a patron that also pledges enough to get that as a Kickstarter reward then I guess you can bring a +1 to the discord server guilt-free lmao.

Love the ideas from a gameplay a design perspective! I def couldn't decipher Sampler's title until I read the description so, there's feedback I suppose. Ever considered having a discord or something to discuss the game?
