Game
Outcasts



10 months ago

So, I know it's strange to do an anniversary kinda thing for the demo of my game, but why not?


One year ago today, the Outcasts Gamejolt page was shared, as well as the demo for the game. It felt really magical because the concept of this project is like six years old now, so it kinda holds a special place in my heart.

The demo is pretty old now, and very inaccurate to the story, but I still think it's alright, and it'll give you an idea of what the gameplay will look like in the full release.

In the year that's gone by, a lot of progress has been made! Some sprites were revamped (as can be seen in some of the above images), the menu has been redone, the rooms have been changed to be much more reliable (there was a glitch where the game would wrap you back around to the current room. Never encountered it in the demo, though), I've gotten better at writing dialogue, in my opinion, human enemies were added to the game, I've started working on the endings, and I'm sure a whole lot will change before the full release.

Thank you so much to the few who kept up, even something as little as liking my devlogs has fueled my motivation over the past year, and I appreciate the support!

Be sure to check out @ERROR989 and @TheMuffinMan343 . Without them, the world of Outcasts would never have existed.

Thanks for reading this post, as well. It's crazy to think that anything would ever become of this project, but here I am, actually creating the game I envisioned for six years.

Later!

Outcasts if it was good

Sprites look like crap because it was rushed as heck, but it's a shootpost so I don't care.

This is Outcasts.

But it's not the Outcasts I've talked about before.

Development update - Memorial Day

Game Jolt Colors is back!

Draw your OC (or favorite character) in the Game Jolt color palette and post them in the Art realm with the tag #GameJoltColors25.

At the end of the event, we'll pick a winner & add their design to the GJ Colors sticker pack!

The Outcasts soundtrack is back!

And there are a few changes in place as well.

Happy #WIPWednesday! Are you working on a game? Making some art? Practicing a song? Something else? Tell us in the comments!

Who wants a crappy, half-finished cutscene?!

(Tiny little Outcasts devlog)

Behold, one of the travel abilities available to the player in Outcasts - The ShortRift!

I'd be lying to say I didn't have a ton of fun messing around with this.
