Dev Diary #005: Magic Crystals

Hello, players!

We continue our series of weekly developer diaries. Right now, the team is actively working on all aspects of the game simultaneously, so we’ll save the «before/after» format shots for future posts. For now, let’s continue exploring the world of Toto’s Journey.

Crystals

Toto’s main way of interacting with the magical world of the Magical Land is through magic crystals. These mysterious formations are scattered throughout the land: they fill caves, can be seen among the fields, and deep within the forests. The locals have become so accustomed to them that they’ve long stopped paying attention to their glow.

The magical stones cannot withstand Toto’s resonant bark at all — from a loud and energetic «Woof!», large crystals begin to resonate, emitting powerful waves of magic, while small ones shatter into numerous fragments with a distinctive ring.

Pockets Full of Stones

Crystal shards serve as the main currency for Toto. By collecting them from small clusters throughout the world or obtaining them from broken stones, the four-legged hero can spend crystals on upgrading locations.

The shards help repair destroyed bridges, restore locals’ homes, and most importantly, unlock new abilities for Toto that will allow him to venture even deeper into the mysteries of the Magical Land!
