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.

Sometimes, the hardest thing when designing a boss is scaling its AI and collision boxes so the player actually stands a chance.

That being said, Clampor's finally implemented, ready to take on this little stretchy lady.

Possible default protagonists, Charlie (guy with hat) and Bonnie (girl with dress). Using a similar palette, because I can.

I would alter the faces, but I like appeal, and without the pixel-noses, they'd look like chibis at that size.

First you draw parts, then program a rig for animation.

I need to work on the "What does this guy actually do" part.

I figured out an easier way to program arranging angles on a rig.

It involves choosing which body part to move, then using the mouse to calculate an angle.

Namely, angle= point_direction(x, y, mouse_x, mouse_y).

Despite anything resembling better judgment, and this not going into any demos, I decided to implement a swinging mechanic.

I got it working. You can control the swing (loosely), and can stretch and retract the arm. It even adds a bit of momentum.

Why, yes, programming an elephant IS hard. Making its eyes blue is a lot easier, but I'm not doing that.

I also had to make sure it's a robot elephant, specifically, because this is a robot circus, and it's unethical to use real elephants.

This should help speed up the process.

...no guarantees, but until I have an official level-select menu, this'll do.

I don't know if I went too far, or not far enough. The hand-clamps work, but that's not being demonstrated here.

Two-level demo for Robot Maid P-NA-4 is here!

...but the game's still not in active development right now.

What a bunch of clowns.
