Progress Report: What's to Expect in the Future


Hi, everyone I hope you had a good Thanksgiving and are getting ready for the Holidays coming up.

I thought it would be nice to share some updates and progress on the game so far.

1st I would like to apologize for the lack of updates and again. I've been dealing with a lot of real life updates and trying to keep myself motivated to make this game. You gotta remember that it's just me making this game, so I have a lot to do, like the character designs, game design, programming(that I'm still learning) and animations (another thing I'm learning).

But I've broken the tasks down so I keep things managable, like focusing soley Draco's Normal Animations, because to me those are the most important because the Player controls him. The animations can't to be too smooth or too rough, that way it makes things easier for me, and they'll still look good. You guys probably saw some of them before, the newest one being Draco's Aerial Attack.

Anyways Draco has one more normal animation then he's done. Then I'll start working on the assets for the 1st level Fungi Forest, as in the background, tile set, BG elements, enemies (only 1 though) and the boss.

Here's hoping I can at least get the stuff done before New Years. Fingers Crossed. Sooner I get the stuff done, the sooner I can get back into coding everything, then you'll REALLY see how the game looks.

All righty that's about it. The next posts are mostly gonna be artwork, but I'll get into showing gameplay soon once I get into programming again. Also don't worry, I'm not gonna show you EVERYTHING, just couple key points. All righty, Happy Holidays!

PS: Music and Sounds are at the bottom of my list right, since I have to either find music I can use commercially or find a composer. Not 100% sure yet, since I'm focusing on the art right. But don't worry I'll add them.

Here are 2 cartoons of Draco with 2 of the game bosses. These were fun to do and helped me with motivation to work on the game.

Draco Dragon UPDATE

Also the name will now be called Draco Dragon from this point forward

Been a while since I showed a gameplay video. Some slight differences such as new sprite effects. Also I'm bringing back the hint signs, sorry for removing them.

Animations of the new enemy named Stinger, it's walk and attack sprites. Watch out for its tail, it's got a good reach!

Here's a little Halloween Treat. I introduce another boss for the game. Bozo the Clown. He's a deranged and unstable ghost who haunts the Haunted Funhouse.

Hard to stop and smell the flowers when you're a dragon.
