Dragonian's second build and source code release


Hi. It’s me again, NukeOTron. I’ve still been trying to figure out what game to make next. A third Belgrad’s been a work in progress, along with an 8-bit RPG which has been working out beautifully. (if I have the time to work on it) Also, I’ve been planning on getting a new computer so I can start working in Unity or something.

Also, to attempt to address complaints with this game, I’ve released my GM8.1 source code out into the wild here and released the version I usually play, just to compare and contrast its performance issues.

So tell me, which one runs better: Definitive Version A or Definitive Version B? I need to know.

Oh, and you can still transfer old saves.

As a writer, you learn to just make stuff up. As a science-fiction writer, you justify the stuff you just make up.

"Derma" is related to "skin", and "myo" is related to "myoelectric prosthesis".

Well, I was looking through some old files, and found some cool stuff.

I know. It looks pretty much the same as before. I just needed the motivation to do more with it.

...and an excuse for all sorts of robots at a convention to be attacking Pinafore, specifically.

When you don't know about copyright laws when it comes to fonts, you either take a chance, or make your own.

Of course, in the world of sprite art, that doesn't leave many options.

Something in the plan for this game will change. With any luck, it will be a change for the better.

In case anyone forgot, robots explode.

So do robot maids.

Concept art time!

Early on, Tiel had a backpack because in the fic she was originally created for, she was going on an adventure along with Rick. That's why I was kinda attached to her.

...let me be honest, the convention level isn't working well as a platformer.

So, I think I should add top-down sections. The combat would work about the same. I think you shouldn't jump in top-down mode, so sliding will take its place there.

Possible default protagonists, Charlie (guy with hat) and Bonnie (girl with dress). Using a similar palette, because I can.

I would alter the faces, but I like appeal, and without the pixel-noses, they'd look like chibis at that size.

I got the keyboard and gamepad input-changing in here.

Try to keep track of the difference between using strings (for the labels on each key) and using actual variables (how the game interprets inputs).
