Cancelled (+the Shadowfell Saga Content Archive)


heyo!
it's crazy to think it's been a month already since i put this game on hiatus, where did the time go?!?!?

anyways, i'll cut to the chase:

i have made the decision to cancel shadowfell saga

this isn't something i'm happy about doing, and i was mulling it over in my head for a while, but i feel like this is best.
i have a few reasons for this:

  • potential copyright issues, with shadowfell saga having similarities to the newly announced "mario & luigi: brothership"

  • part of my reasoning for making shadowfell saga was because i really missed the mario & luigi series, the new game coming out negated that

  • my motivation for fan-content has been decreasing more and more

  • i have no source of income at the moment, and want to get into original indie game development so i can hopefully build an actual career off of it.

  • the game's code is a mess at the moment, and even when i was working on it then it was stuck in development hell for a while

despite all this, i want to give this game a proper send-off, SO...

i have made 2 very lengthy posts on tumblr detailing EVERYTHING that was going to be in shadowfell saga. yes, EVERYTHING.

a lot of it is unfinished (reasonably), but there's plenty of concept art, some detailed descriptions of ideas and even some unfinished songs that never got released!!!!

check it out:

thank you all for the support, this is my last little breathe of life into the community. even if i was never able to finish the game, i hope this little tease of what could have been makes you smile at least!

This Satuday we invite to watch another #speedpainting of our artist Daniel Faiad.

How great is this scene of #Pecaminosa?

Shoobies leave a sticky trail of mucus in their wake, which can impede movement for any creature that steps in it.

Today I was setting up the location of the first boss. His name is "Father" and he is the first of the Patagonians. His task is to guard the road to the House.🛡🗡 Bookmark pre-launch page🔖🔖🔖

Quantum precognition is one of the most powerful cards. End game cards & equipment. Demo/alpha build boss is no match for this deck.

Heya! I wanted to show some gameplay progress i made so far. I hope you like it ^^

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)

Strange Umbrella

A house I've built a while ago. :)

It nicely separates the snowy biome from the grassy one.

It's built with painted Ebonstone.

Alone Together....
