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'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.
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.
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.
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.
Screenshots for Belgrad: Curse of the Castle
In my game, I programmed a robot to chop down trees in real time. Yes, I know what it looks like, but still, maybe I've gone too far in a few places.
...and I HAVE to specify "in my game". I'm not a monster.
Testing out a tentacle...
How did you expect a backpack to talk?
I think I now understand why that construction vehicle company is called Caterpillar.
...and that's just the wheels for this boss.
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.
