For this #ScreenshotSaturday, I bring to you... water!

I know that water is a kind of hard to implement correctly in games, but I couldn't pass on making flooded caves!

Don't mind the missing death animation, btw.

As soon as you touch water, you'll be slowed down a little. I didn't want to make it like Super Metroid though.

When you are submerged in it, the music will muffle and you'll jump about 1 tile higher (per jump), become floatier, and your stomp move won't go all the way down.

This gif was made before I added post-processing and the oxygen system. For now, you have about a minute of oxygen, and getting hit hard will decrease that by 10 seconds.

Once you start drowning, you'll start using your energy to stay alive and the screen will get darker and darker until you drown.

I added a Bestiary to Blooming Darkness! I this should help flush out the world a bit, and perhaps even hint at some lore

I updated some old art of mine to fit my game's newer style! What do you think? Also, thank you guys for your patience and support!

This week's Fan Art Friday celebrates Rayman! Accept the quest in your quest log to get started.

This ability won't be in the demo, but I wanted to show it off anyway. Also, this was totally done first try and was definitely not spliced!

Happy Devruary! Devruary Day 4 celebrates @ElPichon ! They're just a bird who likes to draw! They're also the developer behind The Bunny Graveyard II and Chunky JUMP!. We also have a question for the devs of Game Jolt: How Did You Learn Game Dev?

I added a proper intro for a boss I showed off a while back! I've sent out the demo to a few people to playtest it

Hey everyone, it's been a while! Read the Article for an actual update.

I added a shield throw ability to the game. No indication yet, but it does more damage the more it bounces. I hope your trick shots are on point!
