Our 2d-hd platformer game with metroidvania elements finally has a first playable demo! Windows PC or HTML (https://gamejolt.com/games/bionic/906731) Have fun! Please wishlist www.bionicslammer.com

Finally got around to adding some sounds to the game. Still a work in progress, but let me know what you think!

Here's a little piece of the tutorial level

I'm reworking the whole initial sequence reducing the text to minimum and making it more visual.

For now, have a few seconds of the new initial cutscene.

Noticed that since the player can now stay a bit more time in the air while attacking, helping to reach places it couldn't before.

Completely reworked how player jump and fall velocity/acceleration works, so the player is now more precise.

I added a very small frame-pause when player does critical hits and when an enemy dies.

Also added a hit vfx on player (I just noticed the player never had one)

This has been in the backlog since the first devbuild, but I finally fixed the depth issues with the ceiling decorations in the cavern scenes.

After some feedback about "floaty" player movement, I've iterated by adding some dynamic fall recoil and making jumps stop more responsively.

Very inspired by Momodora RotM and Hollow Knight
