The basic concepts remain the same ( up close, do this, far away do this!). I'm currently hard at work on my latest S&S, Swords and Sandals Immortals right now - worth checking out if you were a fan of S&S 2 or 3! Funny enough I'm looking at the AI this last few weeks. I would occasionally throw in a completely random decision to make them feel more believable! Nothing is pre-determined when you go into a fight, each particular attack has a chance out of 100 to hit.Įnemy AI was pretty basic, they would look at how far away from you they are - if they were close range, they would pick from a series of 'close range' actions at random, same with 'at distance'. There are of course stats that can influence the outcome of a battle ( the higher your attack stat, the better your chance to hit, for example). Would love to know your thoughts on the game, or if you have any fond memories of the series!Ĭheers for the comment and for being a fan of the series! So, Swords and Sandals 2 was very much a 'pick an action and pray to the random number gods!' kind of game.

If you have some nostalgic memories of playing the classic S&S games in your high school classroom (I get many emails from people who say they did this!), you may enjoy my latest edition to the S&S franchise.Īnyway, thanks for your time Reddit. Eventually I parted ways with the company I used to work with and went independent, now I build them as a solo developer! Mainly part time and at night, with a new baby it can be a real challenge to get them complete, but like any indie game developer will tell you, it's a labour of love! They became pretty popular on the old Flash portals, Newgrounds and Kongrate etc, popular enough for me to build four sequels and a few spinoffs.
