Come See the Sunrise - Week #1


Hello there! This is my third game here on GameJolt, and my third decent game made using GameMaker: Studio 1.4. For this game, I wanted to be able to share my progress while I progress. Mainly because I’m slowly but surely becoming more confident in my skills! ^^

The time frame I have for this is ideally one month, but I’ve given myself an extra week, so 5 weeks. The main reason why I gave some extra time, is because this is a bit more of a complex game than my last two. It has a little story, puzzle elements, and cutscenes. Also thought about using shaders, buuut not sure. I have no clue how those work. >w>

So! How about we get on with Week #1!

April 5th: After a day or two of minimal planning, I created the game file & project in GameMaker. I had a general idea of how I would start, working with placeholders to perfect the gameplay. The Point & Click movement was fairly simple to implement, done in one day.

Also worked on some sprites for the game. Since it’s a P&C adventure, it’s graphics heavy. So simply style it is, with 16 colours!

April 6th: Collisions! Colissions? Collissions? HOW DO YOU SPELL- //ahem// Worked on collisions on this day. It was a little challenging, I faced some weird bugs. But I managed to fix them… enough. Collisions are still a little bit wonky. Also attempted to get carrying items functioning, but no luck.

April 8th: Skipping the 7th because I didn’t do much that day! Thanks to a kind person on the GameMaker Community forums, got my pick-up items working, and a rough drop-item function working too. So I got to go to sleep that night feeling quite accomplished. Nothing worse than going to sleep when there’s something that just won’t work. XD

April 9th: Spent almost the whole day (8 hours) getting the correct sprite to show when moving. Had a heck of a time doing so, but after some research and trail/error, I managed to make a nifty script I will most likely use in the future!

Well, that is week #1 down: Let’s see what progress we can make in week # 2! ☺ Thank you so much for reading! I’ll hopefully have much more to show you all after this week.

Heya there! I really wanted to show you all a little gameplay preview of the first boss fight i'm currently working on i hope you like it ^^

Finished a project I've been working on over the last few days!

Modeled and textured in Blender.

So here's the first of the zodiac signs i will make for the next weeks.

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)

Call it 'wrong turn'!🚫 The feeling of running into a house with only one exit🚪, and being doomed to die. #pixelart #pixelartist #pixelartwork #art #pixel #indiegame #IndieGameDev #indieartist

An infected room from the second part of Cybel ! Are you up for some cleansing?

If you have more of an acquired taste, the restaurants in Niravasi have you covered! Maybe skip the salad bar, though.
