Very drastic changes to the gameplay. Here's What's new? and Why I changed it?

Hello everyone!

Since my last devlog there were quite a few drastic changes I made to the game. I actually changed the whole concept of the game.

WHAT'S DIFFERENT?

Well, in terms of gameplay, basically everything. You still need to get the ball to the end goal but now, instead of controlling the ball, you can rotate

specific platforms which allows you to move the ball.

I think that GIF explains it much better than I can.

WHY?

I felt that my previous idea was a bit too generic. Even though it had a cool control scheme, it still felt like "just another platforming game".

I made a stupid mistake of not prototyping enough before starting the development.

WHERE TO FOLLOW THE DEVELOPMENT?

The game in its core is still the same, you have to get the ball to the goal, so I'll just continue posting my devlogs like it's the same game.

Tweak the position of the platforms, press play, fail, repeat.

I added one more type of platform to Spin! Plus. This one rotates constantly.

Dark Queen is set in early 15th century Croatia. Players take on a role of the Crusader on a quest to rescue his beloved from the Dark Queen’s castle.

Inspired by Croatian literature and Slavic folklore, specifically the August Šenoa's The Snake Queen.

After a really long break from making games completely independently, my team and I have started working on our new game, Dark Queen I'm very excited to show off our progress and hear feedback from GameJolt community! Let us know what you think
