Hi everyone!
We've got a new friend to introduce to you today. You may have seen a sketch of him in the previous update, but now he's ALIVE!
A BIG DUMB ROCK IS BORN
Meet the Boulderlith: a hulking, rock-musclebound lump of punch. He greets you with an excited skip and genuine delight that you exist! And then immediately tries to solve that with a fist to your heroic face.
He's got a brutal three-part combo! It starts off simple enough, but ends with a spinning lariat that bulldozes forward. Those punches have scary range and the lariat even more so. He’s the hardest enemy you’ll meet in the Shard Kingdom, and he knows it. Or well maybe not. We don't reeeally know how much he actually knows...
He's also equipped with a big SLAM! Our boy is 100% built to cover ground and if you’re not ready, you’ll be doing a lot of life re-evaluation in town.
Uh-oh. He’s not just punchy. He can also stab his hands into the earth to spawn three puddles of gooey tar that slow you. The Boulderlith can also perform a little bit a rock magic to summon and punch a basalt projectile at you. Whether you're close, mid-range, or far, this guy is the full package.
If you manage to damage him enough, he even has a second phase. Yep, he's got a sword in his head that he pulls out ladies and gentlemen. In sword mode his hitboxes become larger, more damaging, and his basalt summoning punch splits the projectile into three stones.
Divine Obelisk: More Worshippable Than Ever
We're also polishing up parts of town and wanted to show you the Divine Obelisk which now rises with proper grandeur. Your gigantic sword friend will now curiously gaze upon you as you tinker with your skill tree.
We’ve got more town improvements and Shard Kingdom enemies to show you soon. Upcoming is the Pebblemancer to display the magical might of the Shardlings!
Thanks for reading and as always, we appreciate your support!
Rockin' and rollin',
-Don and Mike
