Game
Dragonian: The Imbalance of Sierr
10 years ago

Tired of climbing that Mountain?


Hello, again. For those of you new to the site, Dragonian is a Zelda-like game for Windows computers.

Anyway, the point is, there’s a certain dungeon near the end… and at the end of that dungeon, there’s a big, nasty boss. Since that particular dungeon is so frustrating, I’ve added a few things for your convenience so you only have to go through it once.

…namely, a save point, and the Fairy there actually doing something.

Also, I’d better note that I may consider making games for sale on GameJolt, so I’d better ask: What kinds of games that I make are worth selling?

All that work doing research on the Amazon Rainforest as a level, and THIS is what I come up with?

...well, I'll change the tiles later. I want the ground to be more foresty, and that means working on a tileset.

The Saw-Pod is a machine for lumber work. It uses a bigger laser chainsaw, can cover the user's face, and has a built-in jetpack for those hard-to-reach places.

You'll have to beat them up in-game, though.

In case nobody noticed before, a lot of elements of the Robot Maid game come from the Shiro Ninja games, and ideas I would've done for a sequel. This guy is gonna behave like a similar guy from Shiro Ninja Mayhem, but fit this game's art style.

Concept art time!

Early on, Tiel had a backpack because in the fic she was originally created for, she was going on an adventure along with Rick. That's why I was kinda attached to her.

In my game, I programmed a robot to chop down trees in real time. Yes, I know what it looks like, but still, maybe I've gone too far in a few places.

...and I HAVE to specify "in my game". I'm not a monster.

I think I now understand why that construction vehicle company is called Caterpillar.

...and that's just the wheels for this boss.

Strangely enough, of all the games I've made .exes of, this is the one that STILL works on my current computer. And sometimes, I realize I made some poor decisions in game design with this one.

Someone might ask, "Why laser chainsaws?"

Others might ask, "Why are you just repurposing the old DemoBot sprites again?"

It just makes more sense for DemoBots to be using laser chainsaws in the Rainforest. They're built for any job with a helmet.

If there's one thing I learned from looking at the graphics of NES Batman, it's that they put gray highlights with red shading to make metal look a little rusty.

I'll know if I did my job right when I get to actually making the level.

Too much?

There are only so many ways to draw starbases, and all of them require a window into space. This one happens to also be a factory.
