Hello, again.
It’s been a long while for me to make MP3 tracks for Belgrad: Curse of the Castle. I was hoping to get this out by Halloween, but that was a no-go. Anyway, so far, I’ve got all my good little music stuff done.
…I just need to see if it needs more testing and fixing here and there.
Now, does anyone here want to try testing out this game before release, or anything that desperately needed fixing? Please, make your requests in the comments below.
I might have gone too far in a few places, and not enough in others.
This background full of conveyor belts might make it a bit more factory-like, but it's still ominous.
There are a lot of robot arms in a prosthetics factory. They flail about, so don't get too close, or they'll hurt you.
What kind of bad guys do you see at a prosthetics factory?
These Leg Gunners are part of the security system.
I could have a part where the factory builds robots for you to beat up, but they're gonna be humanoids. They'd probably be like skinless T-800s.

Robots fresh off the assembly line from the prosthetics factory.
I call the ones that crawl "Gwendy", after the dolls from Small Soldiers.
The only thing harder than animating a set of wheels is making it handle like a set of wheels.
...and making an infinite floor without resorting to the official 3D engine.
First off, you can't rotate a background with draw_background_tiled. However, you can draw anything on a BIG surface, and a surface can be rotated and doubled up.
So, the infinite floor uses a surface, and now it's not chugging so hard. Look at the FPS.
If my plan for Sega CD-styled cinematics doesn't work out, Plan B would be the GBA-style cinematics.
If anything, they make decent filler.
Trying to do that Infinite Floor thing (technically, it's a trick of the camera), and I think it chugs.
Makes sense, since it's drawing on one surface over and over for each scanline, then putting that on another surface, which puts that on-screen.
Hmm...
