During last two weeks I was working on GUI - Inventory and Skills and here you can see some initial outcome ([great icons from DGHZ](https://dghz.itch.io/fantasy-icon-pack), some of them are modified, some of them are new)):

It provokes me to revise my skill tree and now I’m working on creating a system, where skills will be unlocked - it’s a part of a bigger RPG system I’m creating - that will take into account experience and some other aspects - it’s not a big deal for players - something ‘must have’ in an RPG, but for me it’s something giant - to write it from scratch, make mistakes, correct them and learn a lot 😉

One useful result is also a [new capability to control input focus in Monarch](https://forum.defold.com/t/switching-tabs-in-gui-solved/58564) to perform switching tabs in pause menu - thanks again @britzl! 😃

It also has another outcome - I was encouraged to work on elements interaction - it all was only in my head (and only a glimpse at burning bushes in the first demo) until now :

💦 A wet bush is treated with a swift air push 💨 , so it’s getting really cold there and droplets are freezing ❄  
“Games” 🤪  
Still work in progress, but I hope you can see where I’m going 😃

When it comes to demo, I’m not updating it on [my itch page](https://paweljarosz.itch.io/witchcrafter) as there is a pretty stable version - when it will be ready to release with a new elements interaction system and GUI - I will test it, fix it, repeat it several times and then release a demo 😃 And I’m thinking about posting about it somewhere else too - there is [a nice forum](https://forums.tigsource.com/index.php), but maybe you know some more?
