What do you think?

doesnt let me launch the game? When i press launch it shows the game is running then shows launch button again

Absolution is a story-focused post-apocalyptic bullet hell action RPG. The game takes a common theme, the idea of a journey across a magical kingdom, and modernises it into a form that is new and refreshing.

You play as the powerful magician Katsu, and along with your gang of adventurers, you will forge bonds, journey across the lands to take back the throne, and learn the truth of what really happened on the day the world was destroyed.

Can you come to terms with the truth before you reach checkmate?

I also made a small main menu. It took about ten minutes to make and I will make it look better in the future. Hoping to make it look like the Half-Life 2 main menu, with scenes from the game overlaid with low opacity.

Hey look, it's been almost two months!

The only thing I really have to say is that my code is really bad. Like, almost YandereDev level bad. Only difference is I actually use switch cases.

That concludes my bimonthly update on development. If anyone knows people that can make good pixel art, or good resources for learning pixel art, or if you have an idea for the game, I'm all ears.

See you in another two months, gamers :D

I hope I can actually make this a good game. My lack of programming and art skills mean I may not be able to bring all my ideas to fruition, but I will certainly try my best.

I had the idea that certain accessories could be combined into "Souls", which can be all crafted together into a super-mega-ultra accessory with the effects of every other accessory in the game. Sort of like the Soul of Eternity from Terraria 👀

I have a great idea for items in Absolution: having to craft them at different places, unlocking more recipes as you go. Items would be unlocked forever through finding them or making them. Accessories and armour would be craftable.

There will be a lot of different songs in the game. My estimate is at least 20 different unique tracks, ranging from electronic to rock to orchestral. This is the one thing I actually am confident in my abilities for.

Chapter progression in Absolution:

Chapter 1-5: One boss each, at the end of each chapter.

Chapter 6: Two bosses, both at the end of the chapter.

Chapter 7: A starting area with a few enemies, and two boss fights that make up the majority of the chapter.

The bosses in this game are going to be based on my friends IRL, excluding three bosses that are original characters. In fact, most characters in general are based on my friends. That's definitely not at all because I am unoriginal

Removed the download, since the uploaded current version of Absolution is literally just a tech demo.

Also, I've been having so many ideas for this game, and I'm still limited by the fact that I can't draw pixel art.
