A long overdue update


It’s been far too long since my last post, and I apologize for that. I’ve been super busy with school and real life in general, and that takes priority over this game. Still, I’ve managed to get some work done, especially this last month.

I’ve decided to release a new demo, which contains the 4th main dungeon sans the final boss (still working on that one!). It’s a bit anticlimatic, I know, but it’s there if you want to give it a try. You can now also mute sound effects in addition to the music.

Thanks for reading, and stay tuned!

Good news: I recently discovered a project called GM8.2 Core that fixes a lot of issues with old Game Maker, which my games are based on. This means that I'm finally able to add gamepad support(!), along with other neat stuff.

I tried redrawing the warrior class (new sprite is on the left). What do you think, should I use this new style for the rest of the classes/ humanoid sprites?

Happy Zelda month! Here's a short preview of the Shrink spell! As you can see, it's not very well suited for combat...

Version 1.6.0 is now live, adding gamepad support and other QoL improvements, including... slopes!

I actually ran into a ton of bugs implementing all this, but it was well worth it.

Dungeon 5 is now completely finished! I'm about 25% done with the 2nd part of the game, so I'm slowly but surely making progress :D

After many monotonous & tedious hours, I've converted the game to 60 fps! This version (1.7.0) also includes some minor physics improvements and bugfixes. Enjoy!

Hookshot time! This took many hours to get right, but I think it'll make for some fun level design despite its simplicity!

On that note, the 5th dungeon is almost finished, I just have to add a boss at the end. Thanks for watching/ reading, more to come!

It's been quite a while since the last update... I'm considering adding tunic colors (via a dye shop or something) and adding more rings. Suggestions for ring effects are more than welcome :)

0.8.0 update adds a new passive for paladins and wanderers: Versatility. This makes hybrid builds more useful without affecting "pure" builds much. This might be the last update in quite a while, but I'll keep posting devlogs as usual.

New demo v0.9 adds gamepad support, among other things! This village, which has been unavailable since the first release, is now also explorable.
