Devlog #1: The Plan for the Game, and the Aliens Playable.


Hey everyone, thank you all SO MUCH for your interest in the game! I've really been touched seeing people especially on r/Ben10 excited for the full release and the game's future. I'd like to share the next update for the game and the plans release v1.

First, the new Aliens.

You may be wondering why two of the original 10 are absent. Simple answer is RPG Maker MV character faces sprites are 2x4, and I wanted to get the first 8 done to prove that the game will work and I can implement characters before I went further. I'm happy to share that Grey Matter and Stinkfly will be available in the next update!

But they won't be joining the Omnitrix alone. EVERY alien Classic Ben has unlocked will be available in the game. This includes Cannonbolt, Wildvine, Blitzwolfer, Snare-oh, Frankenstrike, Upchuck, Ditto, Eye Guy, Arctiguana and Way Big, although WB won't be in your starting roster, everyone else will!

If you're wondering why Arctiguana's here, that's a whole discussion, but the TLDR is 1.) Omniverse writer statements say 11 Y/O Ben has him, 2.) He appears in the UA intro, likely reunlocked by Ultimate Ben 10,000, and 3.) 11 Y/O Ben claims to know how to use him in OV Episode Ben Again, and has him in the OV Video Game, so I'm sold that he has Arctiguana.

Another alien you may be wondering will be appear, well, I'd like to keep some surprises for the final release, but I may or may not plan on commissioning an artist to have this alien drawn in Original Series artstyle for use in the game. I don't know, I'll have to listen to feedback on the idea.

Now as far as the game's future is concerned, well, don't be concerned for one, I'm loving making this game! I'm talking about what's next content wise, and for that I have a roadmap!

Area 1 - The area you played in the demo. Fighting Vilgax's drone army through the campfire eventually leads you to a fight with Vilgax. Just what is he doing at this iconic location? You also appeared to have run into a surprise encounter with the Werewolf from the dessert. What's he doing here, is he helping Vilgax, and why would he? Only time will tell.

Area 2 - Sixsix and Kraab have teamed up again and have been spotted in the dessert. Team Tennyson go to investigate and put a stop to the bounty hunters' plans. An unexpected third party is also present, who's identity for now can be kept under wraps.

Area 3 - A freaky science lab? Full of mutant bobcats, bears and snakes? Must be the work of Dr Animo, trying the same plan from the Southeast? It seems he's receiving help from another Doctor, which definitely calls for investigation.

Area 4 - Ben must face his fears, as the one and only Zombozzo is back in town! Enter the not-so-fun Funhouse and take out the Circus Freaks to confront the goofball emotional vampire himself. What defeated him last time may not be so effective on Zombozzo's side as opposed to your own.

Area 5 - One question has remained constant from the start. Everyone's motivations have made sense so far, bad guys being bad guys. But just why was Vilgax at the campfire? And come to think of it, why have the freaky Anurian Aliens been showing up around the place? Everything seems a bit too... co-ordinated. Board Vilgax's ship, and prepare to face the cybernetic warlord in your quest for answers. It's Hero Time!

Phew, that was a lot wasn't it. All of this will take quite some time to make, but I can't wait to get to work on this game even further! The currently stage is getting all 21 aliens working, and the next playable build will feature areas 1 and 2, so stay tuned for when that releases!

Remember you can stay up to date on this game by following the Gamejolt page, keeping up with my posts on r/Ben10 as u/ThePotatoChambers, and by following me on Twitter @ArsonTPC . Thank you so much for reading, and I hope the game is up to the standard the fans deserve!

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