And back to development hell/heaven! Next thing to add: items to the shop, obviously.
(EDIT: and maybe edit those chains, they look a little silly)
Next up
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?
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.
The working title is "A Memory of Owls". I'll start a devlog if this project survives that long.
Some progress. I'll start a devlog once I decide the name for this game (the working title is "A Tower for Memories").
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.
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)
Here's some #art. You don't have to thank me.
This happens if I put every 15 different enemies to the same room. At least no one of them is skipping through walls like they used to... There won't be more than 3-4 enemies max per room in the final version, though, this is pure testing.
E P I C You might think that since I have final boss done, the game is always finished? Well, yes and no, I still haven't started doing the actual game maps, I have only test areas...
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!
