Game
Dracula's Castle (BETA)
6 years ago

What's being worked on and when will this game release?


I had plans to continue development for Dracula’s Castle this summer, but unfortunately that plan has been ruined due to my stupidity and scheduling. I had the brilliant idea of creating a new Spongebob parody game called Around The Clock at Bikini Bottom, that would feature multiple levels and overall be an awesome game that pays homage to the classic THQ Spongebob games on PS2. What I didn’t know, was that this game was going to take a hell of a lot longer to make than I anticipated. After crunching the numbers, the game won’t be done till October… OCTOBER. I was so hoping to put in at least a whole summer’s worth of work into Dracula’s Castle, but now that this game has gotten in the way of my plans, there is no way this game is coming out this year. I’m so upset about this, I know y’all want to see this game finished, I know y’all are getting annoyed and impatient about it. This game should’ve been done last Fall but my excitement and over saturation of games has caused my ruin and delayed this game’s release. If it makes you feel any better, I did make some progress on floor 5 a few months back, created new floor and wall textures, optimized some of the earlier floors, added atmospheric fog to the levels and revamped the outside intro’s lighting and graphics.

From now on, I’m no longer announcing release dates unless I know for a fact I will be working on it everyday and understand the rate at which levels will be made each month to give a good estimated release date. Like I did for Around The Clock at Bikini Bottom. If you wish to follow that game’s development, check out my Twitter and Youtube channel where I post progress updates pretty often.

New Sticker To Celebrate Scoobtober!

My favorite retro game has gotta be Zombies Ate My Neighbors, the SEGA Genesis version to be exact. It's always been a big inspiration for me. The classic monsters and ghouls, the average kid using impromptu weapons, it's so good!

Have you 100%ed Strange Terror From The Deep's new update yet?

Today is Friday the 13th! Sport your hockey mask and wield your tool now turned weapon.

Gamejolt asks what retro game would I like to see remade.

Very unlikely, but A Nightmare on Elm Street for the NES being remade would be so GOOD. I know a lot of people talk smack about this game, but I loved it.

Sneak Peak At One of the Unlockable Costumes You Can Obtain In Vex Clock!

It's been a very cold winter so far

Last week I took some time to work on more ambient tracks for Vex Clock, specifically ones that play during the water stage cutscenes!

From concept to finished design. Butcher was such a funny character to work on for Dave.EXE. Doesn't have much in terms of dialogue, but the map itself says a lot about his personality.

My Game of the Year would go to the Silent Hill 2 Remake, personally! Really upset it won nothing during the Game Awards tho. Still grumbling about it.
