Developer Update: 3/25/2020 - The new Obstacle and new Remix Levels!


Hello all,

This week I will be telling you about two new parts of Smashbob: The instant death block and remix Levels.

The instant death blocks are pretty straight forward: they kill you if you touch them. A common complaint I get about Smashbob in its current state is there is no reason not to just rapid-fire smash through levels. Now, there will be more variation to the games pacing.

Remixes are far more interesting. When I was initially making many of the games levels, many new players found them far too hard, so I dumbed down the difficulty to give them a chance to learn the games ins and outs. Now, I am adding the original versions back into the later half of the game, providing an extra challenge to players who have mastered the mechanics.

I apologize for posting this two days late, I was playing DOOM Eternal.

Cheers,

Jacob Snyder

A quick look at the new button graphics for the next update... What do you guys think?

Also, is that a new feature I see...?

Enemies can also suddenly spawn through Realm Rifts. These Rift Spawns are going to be stronger than the ones wandering around. TBD on the enemies... #screenshotsaturday #godstear #madewithunity

Protege el conocimiento, salva la historia. Guardian of Lore es un platformer 2D en el que debes luchar para mantener viva la memoria de la mitología latinoamericana. El juego llegará a Steam el 18 de mayo: https://steam.pm/app/1211740 #ScreenshotSaturday

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)

These are background sprites I've created for a game I'm working on at school ^w^ Click on the post to see how the sprites connect. You won't regret it! (personally, I think it's pretty heheh)

The Authority decided to investigate the Basement and leads to recovering classified documents Fun fact: The building has 928 doors and not 1000 doors. #horror
