Saving and loading added to Escape from DIMANSION


Okay, it's 2.5 years late, as Escape from DIMANSION was my entry for AdvJam 2019, but I've finally implemented saving and loading in it.

One of the main reasons I hadn't done so before was that I wanted to include a thumbnail and my homegrown engine didn't support the required features for that.

It was actually quite a lot of work to get it right because I'm using DirectX 8 and the stuff I needed is a lot easier in DirectX 9 and later. I chose the hard way and retained DX8 compatibility. The game should even still run on Windows 98 or better, possibly even Windows 95, with DirectX 8 installed.

Updated version of a Royal Midnight Snack

Small but serious bug fixed - game now runs through WINE

Completed my 2021 Adventure Jam entry with the ridiculously long title: "The misadventures of Jeffrey Jetsam. Shouldn't that be flotsam? No, trust me on this one." - a small, simple and free point and click adventure

Just a few more animations to draw. Getting pretty close to the definitive look of the game.

All right, stick a fork in it! It's done!

The jam has started, let the development begin! And what better way to begin than at the beginning? The title screen has been made and the devlog is up here on GameJolt!

Just as Pecaminosa's musicians #improvise this rendition of #LittleSunflower 🌻, so do we improvise with this post you're reading. 😂

What's coming out of your own improvs? 🤔

Been working lately on lots of 'behind-the-scenes' boring stuff that no one really cares about, so here’s a guy playing the sax for some reason.
