Immortal Chronicles

The first test build of the restart of the project is now up.
Here is to the start of a full game dev cycle.


The first build is only for testing a few things so not a lot here, but keep in mind more rooms and areas are already done.

It only has two rooms and is mainly to test out input and movement logic of the player.

Controls are as following

Side to Side: A/D, left/right arrow, and some controllers already work with the left control stick.

Jump: space bar and the south button on controller.
B for switch, x for playstation, and A for xbox.

Toggle Sprinting: shift and the north button on controllers.

Toggle in game menu:
Escape key and start button on controllers.

Started making a mini diagram to show each region and the connections between them. This way people will have a semi direction hint before the map system update comes out. There are more regions not shown. Note this doesn't include the fast travel system.

Got volumetric lighting working with my custom shaders. Will need to tweak some settings and working on the castle environment lighting now. Pictures are with and without the lighting enabled for the player and throne.

While working on the first full Alpha build, I decided to start adding a little bit of NPC dialogue and other stuff to start making the game feel somewhat alive during the early alpha stages.

Added a small box with the speakers name in it, so players can see who is speaking. Going to start showing off some smaller work in progress stuff starting now up to the first alpha. Each post will be focusing on one change for the first alpha.

Started on the interior for the tavern. The tavern will be where you get quests and can gather information from NPC you made friends of. The tavern NPCs are just stock placeholder art for now and will be replaced later with more custom art.

Mini Dev Blog 6 - Ambience VFX/SFX and Settings Menu Update. I started to add some VFX and some ambience SFX for parts of the game. The main thing left before finishing alpha one is the settings menu for controls, graphics, and audio.

Working on some level design prototyping for some of the underground areas. Wanted to just share some things I am testing. Mainly having waterfalls as a background element for the caverns.

Wanted to share some of the rooms I am working on for the first Alpha and show I have the start of a cutscene tool I made for allowing customizable mini events and cutscenes to be quickly created. #immortal_chronicles #metroidvania #devlog #pixelart

Got some of our favorite grim reaper's animations in with the first set of conversations with him. Will be in the next game build. Video showing off his little idle animation.
