aha! ive updated so much since i was last here, and i just finished tying up some loose ends here and there so i thought i might post a demo of how things are going. so much has changed! its starting to look like an actual game now <3 ive been working on enemies lately, i finally got the engulfing enemies to work. the simple "touch you, damage you" enemies are easy enough :3 ill make some more later, its just a matter of drawing them out.
i added a few interesting features, draco gets an air meter whenever hes underwater, you drown if you stay under too long! bubbles from a vent will make the meter go down a bit, so keep an eye out for them! i also added some monster drops, if you kill bigger critters they will drop blue crystals, the smaller guys drop other stuff.
also, beware of falling rocks :3 dont forget you can break rocks by scratching them or hitting them with energy!
now the game has fish! little tiny fish, which will drain your energy or health (or both!) and a big fish that will gulp you down! but be careful, he moves slow but theres no escaping death from this guy! if he eats you, its over!
if you touch the plants, they will pull you in and close on you D: hit the D key repeatedly to dig out before you run out of air! take too long and you die :3 if you have enough energy (green or blue crystals) you can shoot the plants! Jacree's plasma works faster, so try using that!
there are also some spikes in the water, they will really hurt you if you try to swim through them! Draco sinks in water, but Jacree floats! so try using Jacree to get across the water safely. you cant kill the spikes.
the frog is still there too. if he licks you, he will eat you! hit the D key repeatedly or hell swallow you :3 if you get bored of getting eaten by the stupid frog, head to the right to pick up an energy (green or blue) crystal and show him whos boss ;3 remember, you need to scroll to the energy to kill the frog (C and V) scratching him doesnt do anything
next i plan to work on some regular critters.
everything was done by me. the finished game of course will have only my art, music, and storyline.
