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...)

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.

I started working on the actual game map (the map you have seen in the gifs and videos was a test map), and here's the progress this far. About 50% done.

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!

Here's some #art. You don't have to thank me.

Here's what I have done this far. The map is a test map and will be replaced once I have finished programming all the main features.

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.

Stuff

Devlog is coming once I draw the logo and create the game page.

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!

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.
