So your goal is to make 30 boards? Could be fun, I'm tired of playing games that only take about 15 minutes to complete. Its good to hear games are still being made. I'm still working on a ton. Don't quit now... get er done!

[NoahSoft]

i just got back from touring my entire country so i felt inspired to work on this a bit. I made a new song for it and worked on linking old and new areas, as well as fashioning new areas.

[NoahSoft]

Some more work is done. room 19 is undergoing construction.

[Lachesis]

Do you have more screenshots. :3

[NoahSoft]

Room 19 is coming together quite nicely! i'll take some pics the next time i work on it!

[NoahSoft]

room 21 is coming along as well

[NoahSoft]

rooms 20-22 are being worked on! rooms 22-30 are all already sketched out and some don't need much work. hopefully i can put this out "soon"

[NoahSoft]

would people be interested in a short demo? maybe just even the first board?

[Lachesis]

If you can naturally fit a demo into the game's story, then go for it! If you can't, the demo could even be a 3 board prequel with similar gameplay... if you even need a demo at all. Either way I would like to see more of this game :-)

[NoahSoft]

its my birthday and room 21 got worked on hella hard tonight

[NoahSoft]

I also cranked out some goodness on room 19

[Lachesis]

Do you have more screenshots? :)

[NoahSoft]

no but i put in so much work just now... linking up all the boards and making them flow well. its playable up to board 23 or 24 or so.

[Lachesis]

Well, it's great that you're worrying about getting the game done before posting screenshots! That's how games tend to get done I think

[NoahSoft]

MAJOR work today, including bug edits and tweaks on boards 3-6, made a new sound effect for board 7 and added tons of gameplay/content to boards 14 and 15. they have been bothering me for a while but i got some amazing work done on them today! that section is nearly done. what's left is to make the last 3 or 4 gameplay boards and figure out a conclusion for the plot. it's coming together quickly now!

sweet

[NoahSoft]

Room 22 and 23 have begun work! they're looking really cool. I start my new job teaching music tomorrow ^_^

[NoahSoft]

and i feel like adding in even more stuff like more sound effects and some bug edits right now!



edit: i added them

23 and 24 are essentially done! also added some shit to 25 and expanded 26... i think im gonna be adding some disparate gameplay elements near the end of the game.

[NoahSoft]

working on the character "dfbs - the letter ruiner"

[NoahSoft]

I think all that's really left are the 2 gameplay segments and the very ending! how should it end lol?

[Lachesis]

I dunno but I think it should be surprising to everybody but still make sense!

[NoahSoft]

boards Malardy-25 are all release quality just gotta make some super interesting sections on 26 27 and some plot shit at the end and then BOOM done deal

[Dr Lancer-X]

i am stoed for a stoing

[NoahSoft]

I'm having some trouble for board 26... I need a way to copy and paste or teleport the player to different rooms, but keep them out of view at certain times... and maybe i can figure it out yarhg!!

[Bramble]

It looks like you're making great progress, Noah. I like your style. Just keep rockin'.

[NoahSoft]

One of the final gameplay rooms will branch off into 6 mini-sections with their own rooms and stuff. thats what i'll be working on for a while. today i was just working on the engine for switching rooms, and made sketches of 3 rooms. but i encountered a snag.

if i use viewport resizing/moving commands how can i get the camera to continue to follow the player? I tried making bots to scrolled the view north and south, but couldn't come up with anything... also resetview removes the viewport movement in the first place. any ideaz?

[NoahSoft]

I got 4 out of 7 areas done for board 28. Still haven't problems with the viewport scrolling issue.

[NoahSoft]

5 out of 6 rooms done for the action area. I also got ThdPRO making some engines for me... we already have a working weapon engine... this might be my best gameplay yet!!!!! also stay tuned for a devious puzzle that i haven't made yet.
