I was heavily inspired by that superb intro sequence in #donkeykong for my demo opening. It's a mini tutorial, cutscene & character portrait blended together perfectly. Good work DK 🍌

The rat may need a bit more flair to compare... 😬

Currently improving the 📷 camera & 📍 map marker system

Now I will be extra heartbroken when players completely ignore this feature

pls tell me that you use map markers in games 😬

Maybe a little too much #SuperMetroid influence.... 😬

This looks familiar?
I've been talking game influences and have yet to acknowledge the GOAT #SuperMetroid

I could get lost for days thinking about how different characters would traverse different worlds 🤔

here is some holiday appropriate animation I made for a brief game jam a while back 🎄

(I do not recomend animating frame-by-frame for a game jam 😬)

plenty of different options available to get those gears🔧

Does 'Get Bounce' sound a bit too janky in English? I'm trying to reduce the amount of text shown to the player

I'm a big fan of invisible tutorials ; the less words used the better. This one still needs some work!

My take on the Speed Booster! From my game inspired by the GBA Metroids

Me when I see your new post:

Are you a ranged 'distance' player?
Or a melee 'in-your-face' player?

Me: yes

Worked quite hard on the teaser trailer below and would love to hear what you think 💭

Teamwork makes the dream work! I'm pretty happy with how these 'shove' blocks and 'shot' blocks work together
