Loading...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.
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).
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!
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!
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
Madeline is the main protagonist of the mountain climbing platformer, Celeste. The game has been praised for its visuals, gameplay, and introspective narrative. The game's creator Maddy Thorson confirmed that Madeline is trans in 2020.
I added a Bestiary to Blooming Darkness! I this should help flush out the world a bit, and perhaps even hint at some lore
Dive into the cozy post-apocalyptic open world of Critter Cove!
Gentleman Rat Studios (@GR-Rob 
) describe it as “a little bit Animal Crossing, a little bit Stardew Valley. Maybe even a little bit Windwaker, too."
Wishlist the game: https://bit.ly/CritterCove
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
Blooming Darkness demo is now scheduled for release next week! Things never go well whenever I make plans for this stuff, but I'm fairly confident this time!
Mae Borowski is the main character of Night in the Woods! It's an adventure game that tells the story of her return to her hometown of Possum Springs. She was confirmed as canonically pan in a social media post by the game's creator Scott Benson.
The Blooming Darkness demo has just released! There's quite a bit of content and it's free! So, grab your keyboard or controller and try it!
Have fun and please give me honest feedback
