Walpurgis 0.99 Preview- Dryad

Yep, we also have the final second slot-3 for the Druid, the Protean Seed, which shifts her into a Dryad, coming in 0.99 to complete the set. In Dryad form, the Druid will access to more nature magic abilities and gets a staff.

We show the mostly complete secondary fire here, which is to fire spiky seeds. They work as a pseudo shotgun blast by themselves, bouncing off foes, but when they hit the floor, they germinate like Jack's beanstalk, and a giant spiky thorn will stab from the ground.

Things might slightly change for this (as always with these early previews)- I was planning on the seeds also sticking to enemies and making a plant burst from them, though the code for that is unfinished and complex!

I really like how the transformation sequence worked out for this. What do you think?

Ooh, awesome - was hoping she'd get a second transformation.

New weapon already? Damn, we're getting spoiled!
The spiky thorns seem a bit hard to predict and to set up, because of the high bounciness of the seeds, but I'll probably think it's fine when I'll try it for myself.
The seed transforming into a staff look so cool tho!

Realmente incrível, uma pena eu não poder ter visto isso na hora que saiu já que estou estudando para minha semana de prova da faculdade.
