Devlog - 77 [+ Status Update]

Getting back into it.

#screenshotsaturday #gamedev #gamemaker #metroidvania


Changes:

ANY OS:

- Still pretty much only working on the new boss, all sprites for it are now done, it's got some movement patterns, etc.. still a lot missing though.

- Added better save file loading safety checks. (should improve compatibility with older saves and make them less likely to crash the game)

- Updated the demo boss sprite a tiny bit.

- Misc particle emitters now react to screen shake.

- Updated some old rooms.

------------------------------------------ 

It's been a while...

As mentioned in the previous devlog, I've been dealing with some personal stuff for a couple of weeks now with very minimal game development going on, so that's why there's not been any updates.

I won't go into detail on what the issue has been but now I'm hoping this is mostly sorted out and I'm working on getting in the groove for working on Zordak again.

So yeah.. not much else to say right now, still aiming for a devlog every week (even though this obviously failed recently) but hopefully it won't this time.

So, until next time.
