9-8 Fleshing out the game


I decided to revisit this game jam game and flesh it out some more. The idea is to make the game into more of a sim, and flesh out the combat. With that in mind Im revamping the UI to provide more detail, and allow you to manage an actual Gladiator School.

The details of the combat are still in the works right now, but its going to be map based, so your gladiators will move around the arena and fight each other rather than the line battle that we have now. Between fights, you will train & manage your gladiators(and help them recover from their inevitable injuries).


I moved the roster to the main screen and have several buttons down below that switch between the different windows.


New hire screen provides skill information...


...And new equipment screen.


This is the new fighter detail screen, which pops up when you click on a gladiator in the main screen. It gives more information, plus allows you to equip items. There will also be combat records in the future.


Company screen work in progress. AI schools will now be a thing.

Obviously, fleshing the game out will require a save system, which is already working. Any thoughts or suggestions, drop a comment!
