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!

#metroidvania #pixelart #gamedev

This happens if I put every 15 different enemies to the same room. At least no one of them is skipping through walls like they used to... There won't be more than 3-4 enemies max per room in the final version, though, this is pure testing.

Stuff

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

Now you can buy items. I might add a confirmation box that asks if you really want to buy that item. Maybe.

Drawing those propellers took surprising amount of time, but hey, now you know how the palace can be flying!

Next thing to add: gamepad support?

Version 1.0.0 released

This is the main (stable) release.

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

Slow progress is better than no progress, eh?

I added two new enemies (fish & hat), chests and life containers. And pause screen. Plus a lot of bug fixes you cannot see in the gif.

Note that this is still the test area.

I still don't have too much time to work on this project, but I'm still going to (try to) finish it by Christmas.

I added a new type of portal that will send the player to the final area of the game.

Savepoints added. The game uses localStorage for saving, no cloud stuff. The title screen is a placeholder, will have some fancy background later.

I added that "respawn" function to make sure the player won't get stuck...

And back to development hell/heaven! Next thing to add: items to the shop, obviously.

(EDIT: and maybe edit those chains, they look a little silly)
