And now, an update to Dragonian


First off, thank you all for your support for this game.
Now, this update, labeled DragonianA.zip (because there was a DragonianB.zip for older models, but I can’t release it) is designed to hopefully perform better on post-XP computers as it doesn’t force Software Vertex Processing or something like that. This could mean the fan on your computer won’t act up as much. Also, just be aware I rebalanced the item distribution. So, if you don’t want to earn too many hearts or too many bombs/shurikens, this is for you.
Oh, and the cloning glitch is taken care of, probably.

Anyway, my plans for making a sequel to Dragonian are being constantly thwarted by reality. That is, my computer is acting up, and I’ve got some other real-life commitments. I have a script and some lead characters made, though. So… if anyone’s willing to help me make a sequel, state it now. CG modelers are greatly appreciated, especially those that understand the principles of animation and don’t animate everything like Baymax.
…and people who know Unity. That would help immensely.

On the other end, Indie Game Battle is going well. Rick’s not in it yet, but his stage is. Take a look at it. The link’s in the previous news update. (Don’t delete me, please.)

Anyway, thank you all for your support. I put a lot of work into this game, and it’ll take a lot more work if I could get a sequel actually started.

Concept art time!

Early on, Tiel had a backpack because in the fic she was originally created for, she was going on an adventure along with Rick. That's why I was kinda attached to her.

When I was young and ambitious, I tried making a game called XSF Force. One element you might find (but not implemented) is this guy's talking head and body.

He's a reporter named Mr. Snyder.

I could reuse these GFX, if I clean 'em up a bit.

Welcome to Space.

...not much going on here, is there?

That boss is now done, and implemented.

I can safely say I've completed half of the main game now, even though it's just the first three levels and the second-to-last.

Time to do something else.

Why a chrome sphere for this logo? Because I wanted to.

What happens in the "O" usually changes from game to game. Cybosaurs had Sinistar, Shiro Ninja had , Shiro Ninja Mayhem had Pirate Jack, Dragonian had the cast of Staff of Laria, and so on.

Looking through some old files again. Apparently, I've been making games since 2006, at least. My high school days.

My pixel art sucked back then, but I kept at it, and didn't post games until 2010.

...and yes, that IS Slasher Kabuki.

Well, I was looking through some old files, and found some cool stuff.

Now going through the animation process. This could take a while.

It's kind of a wonder how Treasure managed to pull a front-facing boss moving sideways at least twice.

If there's going to be a save feature in my game, I might as well give the players their own kind of Level Select so they can replay it any way they want.

I know I should work on that boss, but still...

One of the bonus stages will be a top-down stage where you try to stop the Demolition robots from smashing the summer home.

...but I don't know whether or not failing a bonus stage should "count". I think the worst bonus stages in gaming are mandatory.
