(don't let the video "thumbnail" confuse you, this is a new video!)
Hey cool, video uploading is up (heh) and running again!
I added intro sequence and intro map to the game. The story is going to be a bit more minimal than I originally planned.
Next up
Now with some enemies!
New features: shop, doors, more items and a working save system.
I just tell you that programming menus is pain. The game code has so much spaghetti I could start a restaurant.
But(t) it works, and that's the main thing!
I added 12 more enemies. I recorded a video only to test Game Jolt's new video upload feature!
(Just kidding, I recorded a video because LICECap stopped working properly through Wine on Linux...)
Stuff
Devlog is coming once I draw the logo and create the game page.
Who would have guessed, making a puzzle game with metroidvania-like progression for MS-DOS with CGA graphics didn't really work, but if you want to try it, see here: https://github.com/jani-nykanen/the-curse-of-cga (see "Releases"; requires DOSBox)
I still had fun, though.
Night is coming.
Note that "night" is just used to reveal some objects that are required to collect to enter the final area, it's not a distinct game area.
More about it later.
Some funky hand-drawn animation. And I really mean hand-drawn animation: I drew the frames on a paper with a pencil and then scanned the result and created the gif.
Here's some #art. You don't have to thank me.
Don't ask. I needed a merchant character, so I just started drawing something without any idea what would it be. The shop itself is not implemented yet, though.
I have had bad luck with my projects this year, so I decided to make a sequel for A Graveyard for Dreams. Maybe I will finish this project one day, maybe not, but at least I have fun making it!
