New features: shop, doors, more items and a working save system.
I just tell you that programming menus is pain. The game code has so much spaghetti I could start a restaurant.
But(t) it works, and that's the main thing!
Next up
The working title is "A Memory of Owls". I'll start a devlog if this project survives that long.
Here's some #art. You don't have to thank me.
Night is coming.
Note that "night" is just used to reveal some objects that are required to collect to enter the final area, it's not a distinct game area.
More about it later.
Stuff
Some funky hand-drawn animation. And I really mean hand-drawn animation: I drew the frames on a paper with a pencil and then scanned the result and created the gif.
Who would have guessed, making a puzzle game with metroidvania-like progression for MS-DOS with CGA graphics didn't really work, but if you want to try it, see here: https://github.com/jani-nykanen/the-curse-of-cga (see "Releases"; requires DOSBox)
I still had fun, though.
Sometimes I start a project but I lose motivation to finish it. This is one of these projects. The source code is available on Github, though, and there you can also play the prototype:
Don't ask. I needed a merchant character, so I just started drawing something without any idea what would it be. The shop itself is not implemented yet, though.
Here's what I have done this far. The map is a test map and will be replaced once I have finished programming all the main features.
I started working on the actual game map (the map you have seen in the gifs and videos was a test map), and here's the progress this far. About 50% done.
