Work on the title screen for KnightShayde is done! Took a bit of planning but considering it is my first game I didn't want to stress myself with Perfectionism. This was made with Action/Pixel Game Maker. It's a great software when you get used to it. Got more updates too!

KnightShayde is broken into two types of gameplay. The overworld and levels. The overworld is inspired by Zelda 2 (It will have more to it than walking) and Levels play like Castlevania. Some levels are planned to be straight forward. Others will be like Zelda 2 dungeons.

While working on the gameplay of the overworld I added in a feature I had planned. There will be hidden levels that play akin to classic Castlevania with a Gameboy aesthetic (Placeholder music). Idea came to me from watching two creators I enjoy. DisasterSquad and Scary Jersey Guy

The in level pause menu for the game is mostly finished. (I do need to do a tweak or two because of a few overall changes). From it you can see your inventory (Power ups and ammo caps) and you passive skills (Blessings) You can also press LB on the controller to hide the menu.

I wanted to make a enemy that was a homage to that one cursed picture from Castlevania Rondo of Blood and came up with this enemy type. These Portrait Belles can instantly kill the player. There are also different variants with different abilities. Their AI isn't completed yet.

Working on some sprites right now to get progress going steady. I wanted the overworld map to be more Zeldaish so I started thinking of power ups to give the player. Working on more now but I did a "raft" Power and a pickaxe power tho it needs more work to stand out when used.

Internet was down for a bit. Back up now. Working on a few things. Here's some sprite work from a point and click Macventure style game I'm doing as a small mini project along side KnightShayde. I've never attempted to make a point and click with Pixel game maker mv. More soon!

It's been a while since my last update. It's been a tough few weeks, and I struggled with depression. I'm staying true to my dream, as my parents would have wanted me to. Working on a demo for KnightShayde and seeking support on Ko-fi. Thanks for your patience, everyone."

Back to working on KnightShayde! I'm working on the Travel journal map system for dungeon levels. Action/Pixel Game Maker does have a nice mini map plugin though I made this from scratch. This took far longer to make than I'd like to admit! Players can also find a map of the area.

As stated before while working on Knightshayde I decided to make some smaller project and after getting some resources from itch.io I've finally started purring somethings together. This is "The Brotherhood". Perhaps the start of something new? Surely! More soon!

Hey all! Been a bit. My grandfather had recently passed and I needed time. But I'm back and will try to have more updates regularly! Did more work on The brotherhood, getting it's systems in place. I'm getting better Action/Pixel Game Maker. Have an update for Knightshayde as well soon!

Hey! Been a second (Please excuse that lol) But i was still working on KnightShayde! (and a few other things lol) Here's a video of what the final version of the title screen will look like. (Note: The music is a place holder from another game and this Action/Pixel Game Maker MV)
