I really like where you're going with this, Momeka! Keep up the good work and don't get discouraged

I might be able to help in the soundtrack department. Im lazily trying to put together some semblance of a portfolio. Message me if youre interested. Id have to learn a bit about how to make a proper gameboy soundtrack but that shouldnt be a huge issue.

That would be awesome. I'm 99% sure you would have to work in a tracker, have you done that before?


It's GBjam this week. So figured I'd try to make a small game for it.

Here's what I got so far.

I tinkered with one briefly a millennium ago. I'm reading up on them now and will get back to you on that.

So retro cool. Reminds me of the original opening of FF6 where Terra, Biggs and Wedge are ridding Magi-Tek Armor towards Narshe'....but cooler cause it's a land speeder heading for a futuristic city. o.o

[Donut]

Wow I see some really cool stuff around here!

@Momeka Does the city get closer when you go towards it? That'd be even more awesome if it does!

Here is a remake of an old Dungeon RPG engine I did with RM2k3 back in 2009. It was a mess code-wise, so I remade it entirely so that it's easier to use.

I took the walls and chests from Heroine Dusk made by Clint Bellanger (availables at opengameart) and monsters from a Dokapon game (cannot remember if it's a SNES one or a GB one). Otherwise it's wildly made by me.

Everything is WIP, the game won't look like that at all, I will make my own graphics once all the coding is finished. I implemented a very basic CBS as well, based on Suikoden's duels.

[Prpl_Mage]

That's pretty neat

[Archem]

That's really cool. I love old dungeon crawlers like that.

[Donut]

Thanks =)
It is not so difficult to make actually, maybe if someone is interested I could explain somewhere.

[Moosetroop11]

Yeah that looks awesome.

Reminds me unpleasantly of getting regularly lost in Phantasy Star, though >_>

[Momeka]

That looks freaking cool!

And nah, the city doesn't get closer.



Anyway, finished the jam game. Got a bit lazy half way through, but overall I'm pretty happy with it. You can play it here.

[Donut]

Thanks!

@Moosetroop11: And you might get lost again! The game will pretty much be based on exploration, so I plan evil labyrinths

@Momeka: That's too bad for the city. Anyway your game is fun, arcade-style, I like that. Can't get past 27, and I played 15 times already. I like the little synopsis you wrote, makes me think of old cyberpunk books and games. Good job

[zuhane]

I love how we live in an era where we can make games that pay homage to classic games, except they're generally and usually better
than the classic games they play an homage to. That looks sweet, Momeka!

I really can't play arcades games like these. They remind me too much of that old super star wars game.

Hehe, that's okay.

Overall I'm pretty happy with it, but got lazy towards the end and just wanted to get it done. As a result the game is pretty flawed as well since the playing field is way too small and the player is way too big.

Anyway, released the source code if anyone is interested. Get it here.
