Renowned Hunter
If you'd like to support development of this game while I continue to expand on it, I'll create an NPC in the village with your name (or a name of your choosing). They could be a blacksmith, a chef, or whatever you'd like! You would be helping me as I develop this game further, and you'd become immortalized in the world of great beast hunters.

After The Great Beast is a beautiful tribute to the world of Monster Hunter!
Being able to make your own weapon is a unique aspect to this game but I hope that in a future update we will have the chance to see more options for them and maybe armors as well.
Now I want to put on my scale armour, my Abyssal Gravedigger bone sword and go hunt down The Great Beast! Great job Jay!
Aw Thank you! I haven't worked on armor yet but I've been going back and forth on whether or not to work it in, and since there's interest I totally will!
I started working on rules for armor today :3
YASSSS!
