EBF4: In-App Purchases

Hey guys, I’m working on the in-app purchases for EBF4 mobile.

Here’s an image of all the money you can spend in the game. In total it’s half the price of EBF5’s in-app purchases. Like in EBF5, you get optional ads after battles unless you pay up, and there’s a bunch of side content you can buy and play at any point.

For regional pricing reference – everything in EBF5 was the equivalent of $8, and EBF4 will use the same price conversion.

And here’s how the title screen looks with all the new links that mobile games are (mostly) required to have. The port is around 55% done now.

Fanart: Cow Costume

Hi Folks!

There’s just over two weeks left to take part in the EBF Valentines Fanart Contest! Head on over to the Discord server to find out how to participate to win cash prizes. We’ve received some incredible entries already and you can look through them in the #contest channel on the server as well.

Here’s some amazing fanart of Natalie by CaptAnaugi and commissioned by CirnouliK.

EBF4: Improved Controls

A big part of updating the EBF4 map controls for mobile is making sure all of the interactive elements actually have the hitboxes they appear to have. In the original game, you needed to click on an NPC’s feet to talk to them, or on the tile in front of a sign to read it, for example. This was pretty awkward, even on PC, and has been fixed now. NPCs, foes, and slime cats now have two tiles you can click on, and smaller objects like item pedestals have been centered better on their single tile. This is especially useful for touch controls where there is less feedback, but helps a lot with mouse controls too.
