Blooming Darkness [DEMO]
4 years ago

I started implementing the final weapon into the game: the shield! Shielding and parrying are finished and the shield throw is being worked on. Also, the first boss isn't done yet and was just used here for testing.

#ScreenshotSaturday #Metroidvania


Mechanic Details

Shielding absorbs all damage and depletes energy by 1/2 the damage amount. Parrying depletes less energy and deals back half of the damage to the attacker.

Once you're out of energy, shielding absorbs 1/4 damage, while parrying absorbs 1/2 damage and will no longer reflect damage.

I hope the parry effect feels satisfying as it's a 6 frame window (subject to change).

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

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

A patched #Demo of #BloomingDarkness has been released! This should hopefully make the controls less awkward and decrease the difficulty a bit. https://gamejolt.com/games/blooming_darkness/398415

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!

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!

I updated the banner for my game! It's based off one of the first original pixel art pieces I ever drew (2nd picture).

Art isn't an area I'm strong in, so I'm pretty happy with this! Well, for now at least.

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!
