Hounds of Valor

I am #solodev #indiedev working on my passion project Hounds of Valor. I love dogs, games and art.

Playable Demo:

@MalberShark Hi Malbers! Looking cool! dogs with swords is just such a cool concept.
I am still around but life has been busy and complex, I really should make an update post soon to let people know what I've been up to. Hope you are well too! Your recent work is looking really good!

@Reclusemanock There are other dog characters but Max was intended to be a specific character so customization beyond his gear is unlikely.

A short teaser trailer for my passion project, Hounds of Valor for #GDEXTV2020 #screenshotsaturday #gamedev

Wanted to give a quick update. I am still here, but work and life have been busier than usual and progress has been slower this year. But I do plan to update the itchio demo before Gdex this year.

Working on the miniboss enemy and added a rolling attack. #screenshotsaturday #indiedev

When things get more relaxed in Hounds of Valor you can always seek out some good pets and scratches. Animation thanks to @FigAnimation #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #IndieGameDev

Added a new enemy following the tradition of bull-type charging attacks. #screenshotsaturday #indiedev #gamedev

@TheMalpas @CanYouPetTheDog Only makes sense, dogs help keep us going in real life too.

[Hounds of Valor @DogAtWorkGames]

When the people get downed sometimes all it takes is some friendly doggy attention to help get them back on their feet! #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiedev

@MalberShark Love it, it is amazing what blendshapes can achieve in engine.

[Hounds of Valor @DogAtWorkGames]

@luizito_14_ @CanYouPetTheDog Just the licking at the moment, though the humans certainly can pet you back!

[Hounds of Valor @DogAtWorkGames]

@TheReal_RevDog @CanYouPetTheDog Thank you! I am very proud of how things have been turning out visually.

[Hounds of Valor @DogAtWorkGames]

@c3rmenDraws Ha, wow! That does give some idea's for my own game too.

[Hounds of Valor @DogAtWorkGames]

@ToggesGame Certainly inspired by.

[Hounds of Valor @DogAtWorkGames]

Another new enemy! This time a support type that buffs the other enemies around it and tries to move away from the player dog when attacked. #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #gamedev

[Hounds of Valor @DogAtWorkGames]

Added some more intelligent enemies, backing away and trying to flank the player then running in for a quick, uninterruptable combo strike. #screenshotsaturday #indiegames #gamedev

[Hounds of Valor @DogAtWorkGames]

@Weston_Mitchell @TheAllenChou Thank you! It was actually a bit of a challenge to make a kind of sword sheath a dog could believably draw and stow with.

[Hounds of Valor @DogAtWorkGames]

Got a chance to update the doggy fluff and gear wobbles, using the Boing Kit. #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiegame

[Hounds of Valor @DogAtWorkGames]

@SDWolf Ha! I have considered axes as an alternate weapon set too.

[Hounds of Valor @DogAtWorkGames]

Doggy dashes! Reworked the dodge mechanic into a dash that can be used both defensively and offensivly. Makes dog based combat flow even better now! #screenshotsaturday #indiedev #indiegame #unity3d

[Hounds of Valor @DogAtWorkGames]

Demo just got an update that lets you play as all 4 dogs in a new Arena mode+combat improvements. #gamdev #indiedev #indiegame https://t.co/MUgMILdLUK
