The third Belgrad has its own page now


Here you go. Now I can stop updating this page with articles about the sequel to this game.

On another note, I’ll be fixing THIS game to work better with game controllers. I couldn’t NOT do that now that I know how much it didn’t work.

Welcome to Space.

...not much going on here, is there?

One of the bonus stages will be a top-down stage where you try to stop the Demolition robots from smashing the summer home.

...but I don't know whether or not failing a bonus stage should "count". I think the worst bonus stages in gaming are mandatory.

I decided that the fourth button will be used for switching between using weapons, and not using them. Why? Because it works with the mouse's scroll wheel.

Also, you've got an indicator at the top-left if you've got the gun active or not.

When I was young and ambitious, I tried making a game called XSF Force. One element you might find (but not implemented) is this guy's talking head and body.

He's a reporter named Mr. Snyder.

I could reuse these GFX, if I clean 'em up a bit.

That boss is now done, and implemented.

I can safely say I've completed half of the main game now, even though it's just the first three levels and the second-to-last.

Time to do something else.

Looking through some old files again. Apparently, I've been making games since 2006, at least. My high school days.

My pixel art sucked back then, but I kept at it, and didn't post games until 2010.

...and yes, that IS Slasher Kabuki.

Now going through the animation process. This could take a while.

It's kind of a wonder how Treasure managed to pull a front-facing boss moving sideways at least twice.

Screenshots for Belgrad: Curse of the Castle

Why a chrome sphere for this logo? Because I wanted to.

What happens in the "O" usually changes from game to game. Cybosaurs had Sinistar, Shiro Ninja had , Shiro Ninja Mayhem had Pirate Jack, Dragonian had the cast of Staff of Laria, and so on.

Animation testing, again.

I map animations to keyboard buttons, then figure out the AI. Character movement is tied to the animations before adding the AI.

...and that's why I think a fighting-game mode can be programmed in this game.
