Belgrad: Angels of Music

...this is Belgrad.


Hello. NukeOTron here.
You probably remember me for making that Dragonian game a while back. …well, here I am again, trying out some new things, like trying to bring back platform-adventure games.
THIS is Belgrad: Angels of Music. The intent was to make a series of these one-level games.
Here, you’ll play as Jason Belgrad, the Discount Slayer of the Supernatural. He may look like a detective, but don’t say it to his face. Here, you’ll investigate here and there, and try to figure out the mysterious disappearances in the Chenoweth Theater. …oh, and you’ll have to slay the Phantom.

This probably isn’t my best work, but it’s certainly something.

Next up

One of the bonus stages will be a top-down stage where you try to stop the Demolition robots from smashing the summer home.

...but I don't know whether or not failing a bonus stage should "count". I think the worst bonus stages in gaming are mandatory.

Welcome to Space.

...not much going on here, is there?

Animation testing, again.

I map animations to keyboard buttons, then figure out the AI. Character movement is tied to the animations before adding the AI.

...and that's why I think a fighting-game mode can be programmed in this game.

Why a chrome sphere for this logo? Because I wanted to.

What happens in the "O" usually changes from game to game. Cybosaurs had Sinistar, Shiro Ninja had , Shiro Ninja Mayhem had Pirate Jack, Dragonian had the cast of Staff of Laria, and so on.

It's getting closer to being finished.

Even though the 2.5D gimmick was only for that one level, I see no reason to not use it for this boss fight.

When I was young and ambitious, I tried making a game called XSF Force. One element you might find (but not implemented) is this guy's talking head and body.

He's a reporter named Mr. Snyder.

I could reuse these GFX, if I clean 'em up a bit.

I decided that the fourth button will be used for switching between using weapons, and not using them. Why? Because it works with the mouse's scroll wheel.

Also, you've got an indicator at the top-left if you've got the gun active or not.

Now going through the animation process. This could take a while.

It's kind of a wonder how Treasure managed to pull a front-facing boss moving sideways at least twice.

If there's going to be a save feature in my game, I might as well give the players their own kind of Level Select so they can replay it any way they want.

I know I should work on that boss, but still...

That boss is now done, and implemented.

I can safely say I've completed half of the main game now, even though it's just the first three levels and the second-to-last.

Time to do something else.
