Weekly Update 2: New Ability


Forget morph ball, let’s go bowling! This new powerup acts as a morph ball for this game and let’s you go under tight spaces. Your control over your head is limited though. Once you’re thrown you can’t change directions or stop until you hit a wall or an enemy. Once you hit a wall, you return to your body and can move as normal. You can jump while though, which will allow for some devilish runner style gameplay later on.

You may also notice the water. Yes, the game has water in it, but it’s good water. And by that I mean it’s moon physics not sluggish water physics. So it’s fun :D

That’s all for this week. Next week I’ll talk more about the game world. Thanks for reading.

Wonder if anyone can guess what kinda game I'm working on right now with this GameJolt session data as the only clue. I bet someone can sleuth it out!

Nojong, an arcade mashup of Tetris and Mahjong is out now!

For some reason, it's really hard to change the alpha value of a tile layer in GameMaker. You can do this easily for sprite or instance layers, but not tile layers. So here's a video on how to easily update the alpha value of tile layers in real time.

I'm currently making a Tetris + Mahjong hybrid game called #Nojong. Match colored blocks in the field to make clears. After a number of clears, the blocks left in your hand are scored, so you want to try and keep triples and quadruples in your hand.

I'm developing a new commercial game with a small team! A demo will be coming to steam soon, but you can wishlist it in the meantime if you're into deckbuilding / autobattlers / roguelikes!
