Okay, so now, I’ve got most of the game programmed. This means ALL the gameplay stuff is made. All that is missing is the story bits, original music, and polish here and there.
So… since the game is only mostly complete, should I even release a fresh new beta now? If I do, it’ll probably not get noticed upon official release.
Next up
I'm pretty sure I got the save feature working, though I don't know if three save files is acceptable.
Then again, the save features are for Casual Play only. Arcade and Caravan Modes don't let you save your game, for hopefully obvious reasons.
Do you know how hard it is to get THIS shot?
Like I said, I'm making level thumbnails for the Level Select screen. Also, this gives you a good idea how big the max health bar is.
Well, finding glitches was bound to happen.
In this case, with a scrolling boss, the player's trapped on the left side of the screen until there's no solid block there.
I'd better fix that, THEN shrink the gap behind the boss.
Importing again.
It may say there are 20 warnings, but 18 are about "__cam" and two are about "array_length_1d", related to ye olde depth system.
...well, I don't know if I should be worried about either at the moment.
Since certain elements of GM Studio 1, including ye olde "score" and "lives" variables, were deprecated in later versions, I reworked the score system while making them global.Score and global.Lives instead.
Now getting a million points can be done.
How it started vs. How it's going.
The character-puppet thing ended up being the basis for the boss designs instead of the Robot Maid herself.
I could salvage it, but I'd think adding a mode where bosses fight each other is a bit too extra.
Updated HUD, HP system, and other collectibles! (including the bunnies)
Playing around with the title is only the start of a title sequence.
The First Two Bosses
I did Attract Mode first.
She can pwn on her own for the first four mainline levels for 30 seconds each.
