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

Siblings, am I right?
And in case you missed it, you can now play the Blooming Darkness demo!
I recently restarted my metroidvania game, Blooming Darkness (old version demo is now playable), and I wanted to improve my pixel art skills for the new version. Would you say I've made good progress?
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!
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."
