Coding update

Okay, I have added the secondary characters to the engine - also the first two levels have found their final form... I also managed to reduce the loading time to a bit...

Then some other news...

Remember the idea of making PC-98 style touhou game? Well, one of my friends started working on it and asked me to do some sprites (Took a few hours to "rip" the original palette Zun used). Here is an example of my artwork for that game (Kanakos lower frames is for the "invicibility"-mode)...






Game (Touhou AlterDawn) is continuety for the events of Phantasmagoria of Dim. Dream and takes places during the events of Lotus Land Story... The game presents Ruukota and Asakura Rikako as playable characters, both with two different shooting types (e.g. Ruukotos Offensive-type and Rikakos Granedier-type)...

Update...

Okay, another new update (I am really good naming these blogposts). After thinking awhile, I though that I include the coupling-system in the demo (it doesn't really need that much of a work) along with few other features that were introduced in the guidelines for this game...

I'll be posting some new screenshots and concept art soon.

Current progress...

Long time no update... Well, after the external harddrive crash I started cleaning the source code again and managed to compres it a lot - I also had to redo some of the graphics that were lost but I like the new ones better.

And now for the bad news... As you could quess, due this minor problem I might not make it next month but I try my best. Till the next time.

Back on business

Okay... The problem is now fixed and I can continue this project. Also I got another idea for the next game I'll do after this is finished. Basically it is a clone of PC-98 touhou games with Rika and Ruukoto as heroines (I already have and idea for the storyline but I let that be a secret). Graphics would use EGA-palette and music will be 8bit.

Major drawback!

Yesterday the power supply of my external harddrive broke. Well, I did search for a replacement just to find out that the broken adapter model is not manufactured anymore. According to the Western Digitals there is a company though that produces similar
adapters but the cost would be the same as buying a new external.

So now all the progress is frozen till I either buy a new adapter or cheaper external harddrive with the similar adapter...

Minor update


As promised, the demo should be ready for testing before the end of this month. I also changed the Comic-Sans MS to another font that I hope to be a bit better.

Here is some scrapped boss-art though. Link to the original image.
