Time portals implemented. And that one enemy that is certainly not stolen from Super Mario!

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.

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...

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...

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

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.

Here's some #art. You don't have to thank me.

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.

Now you can buy items. I might add a confirmation box that asks if you really want to buy that item. Maybe.

Drawing those propellers took surprising amount of time, but hey, now you know how the palace can be flying!

Next thing to add: gamepad support?

Stuff

Devlog is coming once I draw the logo and create the game page.
