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

The Lost Vikings series are my favorite games whose premise is simple : team work with 3 different characters. Each level and world offers new and unique challenge to tackle with team work.

Back to working on this game, I've completed custom select screen, here's how it looks:

I've animated select screen to make it not plain and looks cool!

As I've posted yesterday, the feature to raise current blocks in Fire Leaf Water was buggy. I had to code new code to replace that cause the old one can't be salvaged.

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.

Krago's dual arm feature took more time and effort to work on. I thought I could just copy some files and edit some lines but turns out there were more scripts which need to be adjusted as well.

I drew this 2 years ago with Magito cosplaying as Mario and Dukuro as Luigi.

Fire Leaf Water only have one demo currently and downloaded 12 times. I wished there would be more people playing the game and the game gets more attention.

I've made a feature to lift all blocks and spawn new blocks in both endless modes of Fire Leaf Water. The feature has glitch and broke those modes. Fortunately, I've made new one to replace this broken one.

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.
