What are some interesting enemy design layers that are slowly introduced to the player in Hollow Knight? Enemies need to provide increased challenge over the course of a game but also be digestible/fair to learn. Let’s look at early to mid game enemies. #gamedev #combatdesign 🧵
In #JediSurvivor there are tuning tweaks that myself and combat team added based on the difficulty you choose. For example, in Story Mode, you can pull some enemies towards you without them resisting and attacking you. #gamedev #combatdesign

Shield attack? This dude doesn’t give a fck! 💥🛡️ When Hulk Knight charges, even his own guys learn to fly. Get in his way - I dare you. 😈🔥 #GameDev #IndieDev #CombatDesign #EnemyAI
Throw it like you mean it!💥 Heavy Shuriken is for when you want your ranged attacks to REALLY hurt! 本気で投げろ!💥 ヘビー手裏剣は遠距離攻撃でも本気で痛めつけたい時に! #Indiegame | #ActionAdventure | #CombatDesign | #GameDev | #ゲーム制作
In #JediSurvivor harder difficulty modes can make some enemy attacks less forgiving (the inverse of my Story Mode tweet). For example, in Jedi Grand Master, the Mogu grab auto slams the player; in other difficulties, the player gets a mini-game to escape. #gamedev #combatdesign

How do Hollow Knight enemies provide meaningful challenge with minimal behavior? Each enemy builds on the ones before it, introducing small TWEAKS. These INCREMENTAL changes forces the player to be deliberate. Let’s look at EARLY GAME enemies. #gamedesign #combatdesign 🧵
What’s the purpose of a boss? Depends on the game, but usually bosses serve as a skill test, provide a sense of mastery, a set piece or a genuinely hard challenge. But, secretly, some are the ILLUSION of challenge. Let’s look at God of War’s first boss. #gamedesign #combatdesign
How does the Default controller layout of a 3rd person melee combat game influence gameplay? Console games need to strike a balance between intuitive inputs & supporting a wide array of mechanics. Let’s examine some melee games’ controller layouts. #gamedesign #combatdesign
What are some design elements that make a challenging boss in Sekiro? Overall, Sekiro bosses skew hard compared to other action games so each boss needs to provide unique challenges. Let’s look at one of the middle difficulty bosses - the Guardian Ape. #gamedesign #combatdesign
What does the act of getting hit convey about the melee combat system? How the player controls/reacts when taking damage contributes to the combat difficulty. Let’s look at two different 3rd person melee combat games, Sekiro and Devil May Cry 5. #gamedesign #combatdesign 🧵
God of War enemies must keep the player ENGAGED over 20+ hours. The first enemy, Draugr, serves an important ROLE (punching bag). Subsequent enemies need to VARY their roles and STRESS TEST the player’s toolkit. Let’s look at some “mid-game” enemies. #gamedesign #combatdesign 🧵
How do humanoid bosses in Sekiro remain predictable yet provide increasing challenge over the course of a boss fight? Let’s look at arguably one of the more difficult humanoid boss fights - Genichiro Ashina. #gamedesign #combatdesign 🧵
How do melee combat systems REINFORCE the fantasy of the player character? These gameplay systems are designed around a set of INTERCONNECTED rules that nudge players towards a certain playstyle or action. Let’s compare some popular melee action games. #combatdesign #gamedesign

Oh, look! 🥷👽 A wild combat encounter appeared on the hospital roof! Once the player climbs to the top via the ladder and is in range of cover, two Combine scouts will arrive at the top with the nearby elevator! #halflifealyx #hashimaisland #combatdesign #leveldesign #blocktober
