Belgrad: Curse of the Castle

Bosses are all done!


The title says it all. Each and every major boss for Belgrad: Curse of the Castle is done. Now, I’m working on adding those good little story bits. Perhaps the game will take a few more weeks instead of months to finish. …maybe. Don’t count all your chickens just yet.

…and for those of who are wondering what Belgrad: Curse of the Castle is, it’s a Metroidvania set in a castle, and quite clearly “borrows” elements from Castlevania. …the good ones, mostly.

I've been working on some character portraits. Since I've got six out of eight levels, I might as well focus on story elements like this one.

Now I can't stop thinking about Tony Jay's voice in Time Bandits.

I'm prepping up a build to show to people.

There are a lot of rudimentary Visual Novel-styled cutscenes throughout. This one's for the end, because the game's not finished yet.

Maybe this thing needs to be in a big jar.

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.

As part of the game's canon, there's been an ongoing war in the Amazon Rainforest. It's a war between the loggers and the environmentalists.

That being said, these trees have been "shaved off" for in-universe and future gameplay reasons.

Sometimes, you have to design a character for one scene only.

...and yes, she has to look kinda like April O'Neil, but not quite.

How did you expect a backpack to talk?

Well, I got the brain in a jar, and finished making the level.

Now, what's that brain gonna do? I figure it'll electrify itself if you get into its personal space, and send out two robot minions after you, but still, what else?

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.
