Shows pretty much everything I have done this far.

Savepoints added. The game uses localStorage for saving, no cloud stuff. The title screen is a placeholder, will have some fancy background later.

I added that "respawn" function to make sure the player won't get stuck...

Version 1.0.0 released

This is the main (stable) release.

Slow progress is better than no progress, eh?

I added two new enemies (fish & hat), chests and life containers. And pause screen. Plus a lot of bug fixes you cannot see in the gif.

Note that this is still the test area.

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:

E P I C You might think that since I have final boss done, the game is always finished? Well, yes and no, I still haven't started doing the actual game maps, I have only test areas...

New things:

- Map (it shows the map of the whole area, but only the solid tiles, not items or anything)

- Blood shards that you need to collect to craft a blood gem

- Better graphics for the title

- ...and some minor things?

I'm just posting this to show that, yes, I'm making some progress (not much, but little). I have mostly fixed some bugs and other things that aren't "giffable". I might be able to finish this thing before the next year.

The working title is "A Memory of Owls". I'll start a devlog if this project survives that long.

I have had bad luck with my projects this year, so I decided to make a sequel for A Graveyard for Dreams. Maybe I will finish this project one day, maybe not, but at least I have fun making it!

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.
