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.

I probably should continue work on the final boss, but I wanted to show you what else I've been working on with this game.

Title menus are really important for home releases, and Game Overs are for less casual gamers.

We aren't in deep space. We're above the earth. There are no space potatoes above the earth. There's space debris, though.

The real trick now is figuring out what the starbase you're flying into looks like.

I forgot I designed the auctioneer recently. If there are robot maids, there are robot butlers, too.

...and yes, I did get inspiration from Jughead. What was your first clue?

Nobody's going to mind a time-limited Bonus Stage as long as it's not mandatory to beat it, right?

...and nobody will mind if the developer himself has a hard time with it, either, right?

The arms are done.

Now, let's see if adding wings is too much...

There. Another hand angle. It shouldn't have taken me this long, but this isn't my day job.

If I know what I'm doing, I can flip most of that hand, easily.

Almost there...

Thankfully, the fingers can be flipped around for the opposite direction.

Testing out a tentacle...

Behold, blending vertex positions!

Old position + ((number between 0 and 1) * the difference between the old and new position)

This took so much math, it hurts. ...not the CPU, but it sure hurts me to do.

...and I've got four more angles to do this with.
