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.

Still shaping out that junkyard.

The sky is a dirty green, the background is a painful quilt of grayness to draw, and the ground is still made of fruitcake.

I realize that I don't need a fancy transition for Mag-Nia to use Seven Force-style weapons.

...but maybe I shouldn't use circles for the whip.

Just because it's inspired by Seven Force doesn't mean it's gonna be a bunch of robots. Instead, Mag-Nia's gonna make her own weapons.

These GFX are probably gonna be used for masks and reference. I have plans for a sawblade form later.

I've been working on a moving pulley that activates when you grapple to it. If it moves you into a solid block, you let go.

...now I've gotta figure out Mag-Nia and her amazing weapons.

Strangely enough, of all the games I've made .exes of, this is the one that STILL works on my current computer. And sometimes, I realize I made some poor decisions in game design with this one.

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

Of course old-fashioned robots end up in the junkyard.

They aren't gonna be used in the convention level, so it's fitting here.

Also, the giant floating magnets and bulldozers don't discriminate. They harm all robots.

More BG layers, more garbage.

Maybe I should throw in a few towers of cars into the background.

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.

One part of me is telling me, "These weapons are way too big for Mag-Nia! Shrink 'em down to half-size!"

Meanwhile, another part of me is saying, "Wait, you can still use these for a more proper Seven Force-styled boss fight later on!"

Let's do both.
