Patch 1.3: Big Bad Balance Borgs!
Hello Bludgeoneers!
This update introduces the Chakra fighting system to the game!
We're incredibly proud of both this system and how far its come since its inception a full decade ago! The Chakra system was invented to provide an alternative to the Martial system - one that spoke to the more spiritual or cerebral side of fighting. The part that emphasized the 'Art' in Martial Arts.
Our inspirations are obvious - Shonen anime + manga from the 2000's, our own home grown Kalaripayattu, and so so many martial arts movies.
It goes without saying that finding a common through-line between all these inspirations was a bit of a challenge, especially with the goals we set out for ourselves, but the inception of a Balance Bar and the need to roll to find your place on it at the start of each round has consistently proven to be one of our strongest mechanic!
That being said, I always felt that they were missing a little something and it wasn't until just the other week where I figured out what it was! The Chakra System is now better than ever and has better integration with a character's backstory, as well!
As stated before, we're all VERY excited to finally get these guys into your hands and can't wait to hear about your adventures as Chakra based fighters!
P.S. - The art for this section of the book is absolutely stunning, as well!
