An Actual Update!!!!!


Hey. I know it’s been a little while. But I’ve actually been doing stuff. Here’s a little bit o’ progress. And I mean a little bit. I’ve kinda got character movement down, though there are some weird glitchy things with the right stick movement (the player rotation). Unity (especially within PlayMaker) seemed only interested in X and Y variables, but nothing in this game moves on the Z axis (up and down). So I had to, like, remap the recorded Y axis to actually be recorded as the Z axis. That has led, I believe, to my issue.

There is also camera movement in the video. Previously, I had the camera moving to the four cardinal directions, using either the Q and E keys or the right and left controller bumpers, but that felt like too much control. Like it would just get in the way and you’d never actually need that much control in this top-down format. So the camera is still player controlled. It just takes less time to actually get to where it could be useful.

So that’s pretty much all my progress so far! I’d love to hear your thoughts on how it’s looking so far. I know there is so much more to do, but I thought I’d share some progresssssss.

Did you know that today is #InternationalJazzDay? 🎷😎

No? 😯 Well, we couldn't pass up this date!

And what better to celebrate this day than #Pecaminosa #OST? 🎷

Let us know what you think about it and have a great weekend!

art comission.

Here's a peaceful little forest scene for this #screenshotsaturday, from the beginning of the game.

Shadow The Hedgehog X pixel art

Updated the chest in the maze, adding sound, particles and better animation. But what's in the chest?

Heya! I wanted to show some gameplay progress i made so far. I hope you like it ^^

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)

Demonstration of the spells and their effects :)!
