What do you think?

Hey devs!
I gave them both a try, the main game feels super good to roll around and fight the boss. The combat demo feels a bit clunky due to the charging mechanic on the gun though, so it feels weird to fire on the release of the click. I would recommend having them as different buttons or a "mode of fire" toggle personally. Anyways, I included you in my wrap up of my favorite games I played this week! Keep up the amazing work!

About the Game Project

This teaser demo was built a few months ago now and it shows a brief template for future work. In the full game you can expect to play a mosaic style adventure showing select moments that paint a fuller picture of Rose's journey through the Underwest. These moments will all be stylized in the cinematic tone of this teaser demo and will focus heavily on custom creative content per scene.

The Journey of Rose & Locket

Rose is on a mission to set free the spirit of Rosebud, her daughter, from a locket. This manifests in game as a series of bounties along a path laid down by a dark spirit with a hidden agenda. These bounties will be inspired by folk lore from around the world. Much like in this demo with the Japanese themes, you will experience somewhat of a world tour of the Underworld. As you travel through the Underwest, you will learn about Rose's past life, the general lore of the Underwest and upcoming bounties. All of these moments will be voice acted by the brilliant Melissa Medina, who plays both Rose and Rosebud.

Our Current Progress

We are currently building a new demo that shows more of the game. We hope to push this out to publishers and look for funding to help develop the title full time. All of this content can be followed on our Twitter and Instagram accounts. We are looking forward to the next stages of development as we are really settling into the overall design of the project now. Feel free to follow the upcoming development and thank you for checking out Rose & Locket!

Just finished reworking this old scene. Slow is smooth and smooth is fast.

Sliding right in

After our recent post here about the new demo launch, we received an influx of downloads for the old demo, so I thought I'd also upload the new version to Gamejolt for people to play. Please check it out and let us know what you think

We've begun to rebuild Rose & Locket in Unity (instead of GameMaker) and things are going well! Next time we release a demo there should be quite a few improvements since the last one :)

Some people have made comments about the difficulty of Rose & Locket, so we've added a mode that lets people focus more on the story. Also added are skippable cutscenes and improved gamepad/keyboard settings.
