Exit of Hell - how the game was created.


Hello everyone, Fearone is with you, today I will tell you how I created (Exit of Hell), which game was at the concept stage, how the game was abandoned and about the additions that never came out, but let's be all right:

Idea of game:

The inspiration for this game came from the game (DRAW CHILLY), it was after I looked at the gameplay of the game that I began to think that it was possible to make the same game, but in red tones and where the main character could shoot his enemies, when I came up with the first idea, I immediately drew the first concept on the school the board. Later I drew the first character concept and transferred the character from paper to pixel art.

How I abandoned the game and revived it:

Soon I decided to make a prototype of the game, I also decided to experiment and decided to add support for the gamepad (By the way, this was one of the biggest reasons for the cancellation of the project) and that's when I made the character changes everything was fine, but when I started the shooter mechanics of the game, then everything went wrong. I decided to take a break from the game and return to it in a few days, and so because of my busy studies, (OWL) and other projects, the game was abandoned. BUT when I was finishing work on (Dark FEAR) I remembered about the project, looked at everything that had happened and decided that when I was done with (Dark FEAR), I would try to make this game again and it was from that moment that everything began.

Game development:

So, the development (Exit of Hell) was rebooted, I refused (or rather I postponed) from the idea of supporting the gamepad in the game, I also looked at the character and decided to redraw it. After that, I also rethought the idea of the game and started developing a prototype. This time everything went well and the game was done well, I even made a computer science game in college and on April 8th, 2022, the game was released, but its story is not over.

DLS to (Exit of Hell):

After the release of the game, I decided to take a little break, especially at that time I was taking tests in college, after I decided for the sake of interest to draw an interface to the game (If something in the first version of the game did not have a normal interface), I remembered unsuccessful attempts to create a beautiful interface, but these attempts were bad and when I tried and inserted the game has its own drawn interface and it worked fine, but I didn't want to release just a small patch and thought about adding additional stories to (Exit of Hell) I had some ideas, but I thought it would be something like with (Ruins) there, too, I was going to release story additions, but only one of the four planned ones was released. I decided to ask YOU if you need additions to the game or not, and after I received a mostly positive response, I decided to stick to DLS. I'll start with the released add-on called (Hell on Earth). Usually some additions turn into full-fledged parts of a series of games, but with (Exit of Hell) it was the opposite, yes, initially I wanted to make a full-fledged continuation of the game, but later I decided to cancel the sequel and focus on the additions, and the plot of the sequel I decided to make one of the planned additions based on it, and the only addition to (Exit of Hell) under the name (Hell on Earth).

Cancelled additions to the game:

Initially, four additions were planned for (Exit of Hell) (one of which I have already told), But initially the first addition was supposed to be (Death Tower) it was a small filer addition. The plot began with the fact that the main character decided to participate in a competition called (Death Tower). The expansion was canceled due to the fact that I could not come up with unique levels that could cause a unique challenge to the player. The second addition, the name of which I did not come up with, was supposed to take place in the cold mountains on earth, and this is also a filer addition. The cancellation of the supplement was the fact that this supplement had to be large-scale like (Hell on Earth), and the levels had to be more extensive precisely because of the large scale and preoccupation with other projects and preparation for exams, I decided to cancel this supplement. I can't say anything about the last addition, because neither the name nor the place of action was invented for this addition, probably it is not necessary to say why this addition was canceled.

Conclusion:

In general, when I wrote this post, I thought about additions that had potential and I thought about what you can make separate games, as you write the idea in the comments. By the way, similar posts will be published on other games, so wait for more interesting stories on other games, good luck!
