Ambushed by new level and new enemies!


First off, some friend asked on how to code enemy's AI. I answered his question however while answering, I discovered how inefficient my code was. So I optimized the code, shared the code and used the optimized code on this game

Helping others surely has its benefit

Back to topic, I'm always tempted to construct more levels and create new enemies. And so I did, I constructed more levels in which some are still WIP and rest are complete and also create new enemies to fill new levels or replace enemies in existing levels

While designing the content, I realized that there's a feature not common in metroidvanias but doable in OpenBoR engine : ambush . With many levels Robo Magi has, it would be great to have some levels use ambush feature for variation

To show ambush feature and also show new enemies, watch this video:

Now off to complete the WIP levels and maybe implement ambush there

I've brought new bosses to this game and made some adjustments.

Today's #screenshotsaturday show shots from the game:

I rarely play remakes so I just choose AM2R : Return of Samus.

Lately I'm busy working on Puzzle Puss. However, while creating new background set for that game, I decided to update front layers. Left shot shows new one while right shot shows old one.

This game is a short metroidvania about a robot having the ability to cast magic spells. He needs to escape this base but he needs to collect spells to open paths to the exit. Can he escape?

Valc joins Braxus here. She has different stats and shots than Braxus.

Today's #screenshotsaturday show some shots of her:

My favorite puzzles are puzzles which has multiple solutions AND small & simple yet challenging puzzles such as the shot above .

Finally I got time to change one of enemies sprites, check 1st shot to see the new look. 2nd shot shows new blocker enemy (just blocks your path)

I forgot to measure maxed MPbar length when all MP extensions are collected before. It was too long and covered spell icon so I had to shorten it. These new shots show shortened starting MPbar for Magito and Dukuro.
