Riddles of Gold - New FOCUS Sequence
Hi guys! DragonSkies here.
After discussion with playtesters, I decided to develop a new mechanic for the FOCUS action to make it more engaging. Although it's simple, it should help the game feel overall.
If you choose to FOCUS, you must time deep breaths well to remove STRESS and increase INSPIRATION. Not the most engaging combat move, but it may yet have its uses.

The closer to the target you click, the better the results! Be careful with your timing...
This mechanic will be introduced in the next update. Implementation should be simple, so it won't cut too deep into my two month timeframe. Please leave feedback with new updates to help me round out this game well!
And be sure to check out the other submissions in the Epic Dragon Jam here: https://itch.io/jam/epic-dragon-jam.
Thanks for checking in, and God bless!
