HAPPY NEW YEAR #2025!!!

This was for sure a year huh... It quite went pretty fast honestly, but still memorable in many ways!

I didn't got to do what I wanted in 2024: Finishing my dream games, but maybe this year!

Feliz ano novo! (GMT +0/Lisbon timezone)


My plans for this new year

Since I didn't do much in 2024, here's my plans for 2025:

  • Release at least 2 of my games that I got to work on (Dragoon Woosh and Kumper Socks);

  • Start working on my big 2 dream games (Time Tomias and Excalinine);

  • Actually lock in and work on the Time Tomias pilot, since it's for my last ever school project that will determine if I can finish highschool and move on. (And once everything's done, I'll be able to finally share it and then I'll have to do an english dub);

  • Try to adapt to an actual 3D engine so I can actually work on Excalinine (if not, I'll just stick to Turbowarp's 3D extension, but it won't be easy...);

Next up

So I was adding a new screenshot to my game's game page (on the "Design" tab), I deleted one image since I didn't need it there anymore and then after I saved it ALL the images in the page got scrambled or something!

Has this ever happened to anyone else?

Decorated the level + extended it just a tiny bit. Also added more bird enemies to balance with the many mice enemies in the level

Still going to make more changes to the level (all of those checkerboard tiles at the start might not be visually appealing)

VERTICAL LEVEL!

Here you have to go up instead to the sides to complete the level (the jump mechanics work much better in this level format!)

This might or might not replace the existing horizontal (normal) levels.

Have fun! I guess.

Art that I made for my game during the #Devruary challenge!

I didn't got to post these directly to the game page, so here's a post with most of them there!

The frontpage!

Many stuff can get frontpaged, like art, creations, and even simple text posts!

Please note that the frontpage is simply a spotlight to bring attention to posts. Do not feel unmotivated if you don't get frontpaged!

Medals... Stars... All over the place!

Added star collectibles! You can collect 3 of them in each level. (Also updated many screens to include stats on your medals and stars.)

Development flow is at max speed! I'm confident that I'm finally getting closer at properly finishing working on the Demo!

- Remaking the 1st level (W.I.P)

- Repurposed medals to be the end goal for levels

- End level screen (W.I.P)

- And more! Read

Preview of the new 1st level: Now in vertical! (W.I.P)

If I put every single "1st level" I made into the game now then I'd have a full set of levels already

Also did some changes to the jump mechanic and did a bunch of optimization.

1st level almost done!

Coded a new enemy system: they appear in 10 different places, but in reality there's only 4 of them! (It's not clones, that might be impossible on Gameboy unfortunally)
