Slow progress is better than no progress, eh?
I added two new enemies (fish & hat), chests and life containers. And pause screen. Plus a lot of bug fixes you cannot see in the gif.
Note that this is still the test area.
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.
I implemented simple dialogue boxes. Since the resolution is so small (160x144), the dialogue will be short & compact. And yes, it will be skippable.
(I know, not much a progress, but I'm pretty busy writing my master's thesis right now)
I'm just posting this to show that, yes, I'm making some progress (not much, but little). I have mostly fixed some bugs and other things that aren't "giffable". I might be able to finish this thing before the next year.
Version 1.0.0 released
This is the main (stable) release.
Some progress. I'll start a devlog once I decide the name for this game (the working title is "A Tower for Memories").
Here's some #art. You don't have to thank me.
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.
The working title is "A Memory of Owls". I'll start a devlog if this project survives that long.
Now you can buy items. I might add a confirmation box that asks if you really want to buy that item. Maybe.
Drawing those propellers took surprising amount of time, but hey, now you know how the palace can be flying!
Next thing to add: gamepad support?
