Progress Update - October, 2021


Hey there! It's been 2 months since Kirby: Dark Paradox did another one of these... Now that i'm going to college / university, i'll be out of updates to show, and so little to actually progress. So, in the mean-time, i'll grab some stuff and start sharing to ya'!

It doesn't matter if it's too much or too little, all you want is some progress, so here you go!


B-B-Boss Time!?

That's right, Bosses started to get conceptualized. 4 out of the 11 main bosses have been designed already. However, you'll only get 2 reveals, since some other NEW bosses are still a secret to the public (unless you're in the Discord Page, of course)

  • Luminous Woods, a new type of Whispy Woods that this game lacked. It may look like we battle the boss on the day, but actually, Luminous Woods is so bright and shining, that can light the night. Art made by @WhyIamaPotato .

  • Strange Ado: What have they done to poor Adeleine again!? More menacing than ever, this darker version of an infant artist will speak from the heart with her art, and try to kill you with some bizarre abominations. Also, not allowed to lewd her, she's a kid you weirdos. Art made by Hiroshi.


Minigames!

A tradition in Kirby games (most likely modern ones), is that they add some minigames for you and your friends to enjoy, while completing the main story mode. Well, what if i told you that we have 2 minigames on the plans, and they are based on classic games from past decades?

Strato Patrol EOS minigame (working title)
Based on the original "Strato Patrol EOS" in Kirby Mass Attack, the game follows the same gameplay style as the original. Choose between Kirby, and other 3 characters and take off to defeat enemies in the air, with the new "Star Buster". You control the characters with a Mouse (but there might be an option to control it with a keyboard/controller), boosting up your attacks, and travelling the skies of the different worlds found in Pop Star.

Kirby's Avalanche Remixed/Kirby's Ghost Trap REMIX
Do you remember the Nintendo-localized version of Super Puyo Puyo, for the Super Nintendo? Guess what, WE'RE REMAKING IT FROM SCRATCH! This minigame is a 1-4 players experience, in which you joint 4 puyos of the same color, to make chains an throw garbage to the opponent. The game will also take a look at the original story, in which Dedede handles a "Super Special Puyo Pop Tournament" on the Fountain of Dreams, and Kirby will compete for the big prize. New music, dialogue, and Puyo rules might be added, but all characters will have their own chains. Aditionally, the artistic style will be based on the modern Puyo Puyo games (since Fever), to make more appeal to the modern audience.

The whole art was made by @WhyIamaPotato .


An "extra whirly" adventure!

Meet Whirly, a 6 years old kid who will protagonize the Extra Adventure mode, in a similar style to Meta Knightmare Returns. Special thanks to Hiroshi for the redesign. Not much is known about her, but his brother might know.

Other stuff

As tradition, here's some more stuff that we have planned for the game!:

  • The game will be 8 worlds long, with unique gimmicks for each on of them.

  • Challenges are in the plans, but might be scrapped.

  • Franniel/Blue will NOT have a major role in this game, nor will ever appear in here, other than a little cameo.

  • EX Parallel Bosses will happen

  • The Arena/True Arena is in the plans

In adittion, remember to take your time and help us grow, so the game gets some bigger progress: https://gamejolt.com/p/quick-anouncement-looking-for-experienced-people-to-work-with-c8wygumz

Big Announcement!

Quick Anouncement!

(Looking for experienced people to work with!)

A very quick and silly Kirby doodle I made in Inkscape while experimenting with a tablet setup; thought he was too silly not to share.

I've been using Inkscape for about 15 years, but have never bothered with the tablet features until now.
