Here. It's my ZAGE announcement. I've been planning this for a while. Also, since I'm doing this to announce the level-up update, I might as well make it fun.
You can actually find this sequence in-game, but it'll require a certain code.
Next up
Part of the expansion involves a cute little fight right here. ...in space for no apparent reason.
...too bad it won't be as epic as the final boss, but still...
I hope you appreciate what I go through for pointless details like this.
I don't plan on going this crazy too much, though.
Once again, I felt like compiling a font I made into a sheet.
Why? So YOU can use it and modify it, and so you won't get sued by Monotype for using Arial in a commercial project.
I felt some mechanics were underutilized, so I'm making an expansion.
...more or less just a side quest and extra dungeon. No more than that here.
Coming who-knows-when.
As part of the process, I learned that my new dialogue-scrolling system isn't perfect. It's possible to break it if you can push the button faster than humanly possible.
I guess I'd better dig out the Turbo controller for further testing.
Just a reminder. It's coming on the 16th, assuming nothing goes wrong.
The next update may be full of bugs.
...moths, mostly.
First, I hand-draw it and ink it with a felt-tip pen. Then I scan it, making an HD image. Then I save it as a 16-color BMP, then clean it up and crop it. Then I add color and transparency effects.
For games, I shrink the HD version for the game's window.
Well, this might give you an idea of the kind of scope my cutscenes will go.
I probably should hire voice actors, but I think I'd rather do what I can without money first.
Still doing cinematics.
It still requires a lot of drawing of new assets, and I just put in that Mode 7 effect for later cutscenes.
