So far in Din's Champion, I've added 39 cataclysms that the evil gods can use to wreck havoc and 6 divine interventions that the good gods can use to help.

I'm hoping to make some kind of progress on a trailer for Din's Champion this week. Once we have a trailer, I can actually make the Steam page live which will be nice.

Working on a trailer for Din's Champion is bringing a lot of tasks to the top of my to-do list: things like fixing graphic bugs, unimplemented things that should look good in motion (exploding gases), and things I would like to show but need to be more visible (dynamic world).

The last couple of days I've improved the map in Din's Champion to show better where quests are available and also where the influence of the most important entities of your area has spread (nemesis, arch-nemesis, most powerful boss, and evil god).

Most of my changes to Din's Champion this week ended up being UI updates, all so I can make a trailer. Luckily all of the changes do improve the game, so progress was made on multiple fronts this week.

Sometimes I almost feel sorry for my test characters that I run through lava, jump off tall buildings, drown in acid, and get killed in infinite other ways, all in the name of testing.

Exploding gases are now working in Din's Champion. All games need more things that go boom.

While trying to test setting oil on fire in Din's Champion, I accidentally caught most of the screen on fire including the trees, almost died from suffocation, and then a vendor decided to come attack me for hurting him, so success!

I might actually finally start recording and editing a trailer for Din's Champion next week.

With the type of games that we make, balancing things is always interesting. Now that things like oil and pollution can catch on fire in Din's Champion, there is all of a sudden smoke everywhere and suffocation might be the most dangerous thing in the game.
