This will be the place for the updates / dev stuff for my current mzx projects..
Right now I have a few newer ones I'm actively redoing.

This game looks pretty cool.
Oh, I noticed that when you touch the switchblade, your player can still move around untill it askes if you want to pick it up. You may want to use a lockplayer there or something.

EDIT: I just saw your last post. It seems that during most of the dialogue your player can still move around. I don't know if you wanted it like that. I just wanted to point that out.

Thanks for trying it out. And for pointing that out, I'll fix that right now. -.-;

i really like your graphical style, and i think that you may turn out to be a pretty good mzxer if your programming is as good as your graphics.

[afkHideki]

This is a snap of the fixed DoZ file..

[ajs]

By the way, I'm sorry for not picking up both versions. This was unintentional. I recommend, in future, you resubmit full versions (not patches) even though this is not yet clarified by the rules.

Oh, all right. I'll do just that. o_o

[afkHideki]

No new updates for now but a little question ..
For those who have downloaded my snaps, would you mind posting some feedback?

[Maxim]

They certainly *look* nice, but you'll need to do some more engines within the games before we can comment.

Update: untitled game

• worked a LOT of bugs out of the player renderer
  
• made a chapter intro screen

Here's a screen :

[Koji]

Your player renderer, does is dynamically place characters into a sprite's reference area to make room for the graphic?

anyway thoes are some awesome char graphics, that is all.

[Kom]

That looks... great! It makes me want to work more on my non 1x1 games.

It uses overlay blocks tracked by counters. D:

But thanks ^_^

[afkHideki]

Sorry for the lack of updates. Lots of other stuff recently.

[hob nado]

Just do like I do; revive the thread whenever you add something. Thread necromancy is a'ight in Journals.

Updates

Revolution
I came up with a few new ideas for this, although they didn't get far.

• made battle system animations, very scarce
  
• tried to tweak with a 'radio'

currently untitled
This is my favorite project right now, but the level design is more cinematic than actual gameplay. I want to find something easily attachable to the story.

• better transition effects
  
• new music
  
• longer intro (still not done)

Ideas

A game with Egyptian themes, with some kind of 'worship' mechanic. And real-time story sequences like the ones from Half Life 2.

[Kom]

it's good to see you're still alive and kicking

[afkHideki]

New idea I had.. I'm going to start designing a RPG with the tentative title HiGH.. it's gonna use a character I've been developing for a while now. Can't give a lot of explanation yet, sorry. :\ I'll get some screenshots up when I doodle up a few boards.

[afkHideki]

HiGH


_{Mazoku, main character}

Made the sprite designs , now for the environments -_-
