Still working hard on scratch. Im trying my very best to stop putting new skills and stuff in as i will make more work for myself than is possible but other than that its coming along.

At present i have 2 skills per belt, 5 belts and 2 standered skills to obtain throughout the game.

Right now im working hard on the graphics as i was getting fed up with coding. I just cant get enough of designing different trees and stuff, i think im a bit strange like that.

I have added a few new screen shots. Sadly i cant show how the flowers, butterflys and chimney smoke are animated cause it really looks nice (i think anyways)
I have still to design a shed load of new world furniture and stuff.

Also a screen shot of a house. Unlike wonderboy i have decided to design the houses and buildings as differnet screens as it cuts down on the actives and such.
Plus i got alot more going on behind the scenes than wonderboy did and its easier this way.

Anyways im getting married on saturday so i wont be around much for the next 3 weeks.

Happy clicking and see you soon.

Engine DONE!
Posted 12th Jun 10, by Windybeard Games 4 Comments
right well i think i can now say that the game engine is built. Only very few things outstanding, little bugs etc but these will be ironed out when i can be arsed.
Im now starting on the World and so far so good.
All elemental belt skills are working and working well and everything is loading and saving which is a plus.

Got a nasty bug in the control system which supposedly is to do with the "Joypad extension". its causing some massive slow down for the first 12secs of the game the first time its booted from a newly booted computer (its very strange) once this is sorted its plain sailing! any ideas much appreciated.

Stay tuned for some screens of the first areas when they are finished.
Battling on!

Just a quick up date. In the midst of adding full joypad support. At present its almost done just a few tweaks and UI issues to rectify and all is good.
I have never added this before and (fingers crossed) it will make a massive difference to gameplay.

Also added a few new elemental skills for example the ice belt now allows you to smash ice blocks that block paths and fire belt allows player to walk on fire.
