Hello everyone!

Over the past two months, I have finished designing most of the Chaos Front UI. Now, it's time to start coding. I'm aiming to release the game demo in October, which is four months away!

In this devlog, I want to introduce the concept of 'Formation' in Chaos Front.

Units in the game are divided into two main categories: Ships and Arms. Arms are further divided into two types: small and large. S-type units like Mecha and fighters can be stacked in squads of up to three, while L-type units like Artillery and Titans cannot be stacked with other arms. Since arms can't travel long distances in space on their own, they need to be carried on a ship to reach the mission target.

Our mercenary corps can deploy a maximum of four ships in the strike force. Each ship has a specific number of small and large hangars. Small arms can be placed in both types of hangars, but large arms can only be placed in large hangars. For example, the Impactor has three small hangars and one large hangar, while the Freighter only has three small hangars. It's important to note that all units in the strike force must have a captain or pilot.

Different missions have a limit of 1-4 ships. Even for missions with a limit of one ship, you can send 4 ships full of arms to strike. However, this will cost you extra maintenance and may even offset the mission rewards gained.

On the battlefield, ships can provide ability bonuses to arms within a certain command range. When the arms are low on HP and EN (Energy), they can return to the ship to recover. However, it's important to note that all HP and EN recovered are deducted from that ship's EN. When a ship is destroyed, all arms inside are also destroyed.

Additionally, ships can carry up to 4 items while weapons can carry up to 2 items. These items can provide restoration and ability enhancements. For example, the Repairer can restore HP, and the Thruster can dramatically increase the unit's movement in a turn.

The game's settings are still being refined and adjusted. Even after the demo is completed, further adjustments will be made based on your suggestions. That's all for this devlog. Let's talk more next month!

Hello everyone! It's time for the monthly DevLog again.

In Chaos Front, there are two types of characters: 'Captain' and 'Pilot'. They have different abilities and attributes, and can respectively drive ships and arms. To help you understand their differences better, let's take a look at two examples.

Captain Helen, for instance, has four attributes: Shoot, Maneuver, Command, and Skill Point. When she controls a ship, her 'Shoot' attribute increases the hit rate of the ship's shooting weapons. 'Maneuver', on the other hand, helps the ship avoid enemy fire and increases the damage of the ram weapon if equipped. 'Command' can increase the damage of friendly arms or reduce the damage they take within her command range. Higher SP means Helen can use more and stronger skills during the battle. Every time she levels up, these attributes will increase.

The blue entries below 'Merchant Lv1' and 'Commander Lv1' represent Helen's talents when she reaches Captain Level 2. They respectively allow her to obtain more mission rewards and increase her command range. With every level, Helen will either gain a new talent or add one level to an existing talent. The maximum talent level is 5.

'Reinforce' is Helen's Skill which can be used on the battlefield by consuming SP to recover the HP of friendly units. Each role has three skills, and the remaining two are unlocked as the role levels up.

Now let's talk about Pilot Pyrrhus. He cannot command a spaceship, but he can fight in a mecha or other arms. Pyrrhus also has four attributes: Shoot, Melee, Reaction, and SP. The 'Shoot' and 'SP' attributes are the same as Helen's. The 'Melee' attribute increases the damage of Melee weapons, while 'Reaction' increases the dodge rate and parry rate of his unit.

His talents, 'Shielder Lv1', increase the shield's durability, and 'Fencer Lv1' makes it easier to trigger a Preemptive strike when using Melee weapons. After using the skill "Effort", he can increase the EXP gained in battle.

By the way, some players have asked how many characters there are in Chaos Front. We can confirm that there are over 120 characters in total, but the characters that each Corps can collect are only a portion of them.

That's all for today. I will be back next month.

Best regards,
