Update #2 - Snowy Snowy... uh, Update


A new version (0.3.0) is released! Here’s a list of new features (including bug fixes):

New features:

  • Mission 3 (“Snowy Snowy… uh, Place”) is 100% playable:

    • four new enemy types

    • a boss battle versus ‘Chanterelle Cake’

  • Mission 4 has graphics and music, but no enemies. If you enter the stage, you’ll see “Coming soon!” message

Fixes:

  • The crystals will now fly towards the player faster. Some people complained it’s too easy to mix them up with the enemy bullets

Known issues:

  • Upgraded special attacks still need some improvements

Here's some #art. You don't have to thank me.

(don't let the video "thumbnail" confuse you, this is a new video!)

Hey cool, video uploading is up (heh) and running again!

I added intro sequence and intro map to the game. The story is going to be a bit more minimal than I originally planned.

Night is coming.

Note that "night" is just used to reveal some objects that are required to collect to enter the final area, it's not a distinct game area.

More about it later.

Some funky hand-drawn animation. And I really mean hand-drawn animation: I drew the frames on a paper with a pencil and then scanned the result and created the gif.

Who would have guessed, making a puzzle game with metroidvania-like progression for MS-DOS with CGA graphics didn't really work, but if you want to try it, see here: https://github.com/jani-nykanen/the-curse-of-cga (see "Releases"; requires DOSBox)

I still had fun, though.

Sometimes I start a project but I lose motivation to finish it. This is one of these projects. The source code is available on Github, though, and there you can also play the prototype:

Stuff

Devlog is coming once I draw the logo and create the game page.

I have had bad luck with my projects this year, so I decided to make a sequel for A Graveyard for Dreams. Maybe I will finish this project one day, maybe not, but at least I have fun making it!

#metroidvania #pixelart #gamedev

The working title is "A Memory of Owls". I'll start a devlog if this project survives that long.

It has been over four years since Operation Fungus, so I decided to remix the first mission. The result can be found here:

Have fun. It's playable on browser, by the way.
