Working on the main character


I took another day to spoil myself with art assets, in which I bathed in the presence of the swatches for hours, coming out of my high only when it was time for bed (now). The main character is an exiled prince, who is rather cocky and daring — a little short at times, too (to begin with).

I’ve got done about half of the battle sprite for him. It can be tough work sometimes starting with a blank canvas and creating something out of nothing.

I promised myself that tomorrow I will work on the image bug, and I will.

By the end of the week, I hope to have the game in a workable state.

Expect the first screenshots to contain “Slimey”, the test sprite.

Thanks for all the support lately! (Guys in Dev Chat, I’m lookin’ at you).

Later!

Sometimes the suction cup get sticky. Small animation I made in Blender after doing my tutorial on picking up/dropping objects in animations. Crate model by jQueary (https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/game-ready-sci-fi-crate-d98deca6…).

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)

One of the most critical update for Sunblaze demo. Now you are able to pet a cat! Finally!
