Belgrad: Curse of the Castle gets an update


That’s right; the good Belgrad game is getting a much-needed update. Not only does it make the game a teensy bit more playable with some game controller fixes, but a bug in one of the modes (not the boss rush or Sophia Belgrad as a whole) has been fixed.
Also, it’s in a zip format for you Windows XP users out there.

Why did I fix this? Well, while working on the third Belgrad game (which still needs a proper title, BTW), I noticed these bugs with my brand-new computer, and I just had to fix them. Nobody wants to play an unplayable game, you know. Even I believe this.

Again, I’m working on the third game. It’s technically complete, but still needs music.

If there's one thing I learned from looking at the graphics of NES Batman, it's that they put gray highlights with red shading to make metal look a little rusty.

I'll know if I did my job right when I get to actually making the level.

I think I now understand why that construction vehicle company is called Caterpillar.

...and that's just the wheels for this boss.

Too much?

There are only so many ways to draw starbases, and all of them require a window into space. This one happens to also be a factory.

All that work doing research on the Amazon Rainforest as a level, and THIS is what I come up with?

...well, I'll change the tiles later. I want the ground to be more foresty, and that means working on a tileset.

As part of the game's canon, there's been an ongoing war in the Amazon Rainforest. It's a war between the loggers and the environmentalists.

That being said, these trees have been "shaved off" for in-universe and future gameplay reasons.

In my game, I programmed a robot to chop down trees in real time. Yes, I know what it looks like, but still, maybe I've gone too far in a few places.

...and I HAVE to specify "in my game". I'm not a monster.

Testing out a tentacle...

The Saw-Pod is a machine for lumber work. It uses a bigger laser chainsaw, can cover the user's face, and has a built-in jetpack for those hard-to-reach places.

You'll have to beat them up in-game, though.

Screenshots for Belgrad: Curse of the Castle

This is literally one of the first cutscenes, after the first level. Like I said, I'd rather do Sega CD-style cutscenes, but this will do.

...it's also the most complete-looking cutscene right now. I thought you'd like a look.
