Red Wizard Island (new release)

[Nathan]

Yep, me too, I was hoping this project wasn't dying.

I suggest setting yourself a schedule, milestones, stating what you want done/completed  each week/month
then aim to hit those targets, and get the game finished.

*nod* I have one date. 28th of february. By then I want a test alpha, for a select group of GLBasic guys to play with & give feedback.

's not. My server is being rude, so see the attachment for a small update teaser on new spell gfx. Still needs work on the momentum/ movement.

Yeah, keep milestones It makes a big difference

I'm thinking there should be a GLBasic action group for play testing and similar stuff. I'm sure it would be possible to organise some kind of mutual feedback and app ratings thing. We're all engaged in our own projects yet a little time set aside for mutual support can make a big difference.

Yep, like a journalist blog kind of thing...I believe in that too.

While that dosen´t happen (it will someday) vlogs are the best choice, as people already commented before.

- HUD now includes coins, fully functional
- Added collision detection for walls > 32x32 pixels. Makes the landscape less "griddy".

[r0ber7]

- enemies now drop powerups
- added explosion particles effect at fireball impact
- added start position info to level editor & game

Just a few things left before public alpha test phase. I expect I'll be ready to share on the 28th.

Looking forward to seeing your work.
Glad work is continuing.

Watchtower, work in progress. The shading needs work, and I might go with a different door entirely. Not liking this one.

Thank you.

The door didn't work very well in-game so I left it out. Today (so far):

- added watchtower
- added viking archers
- got rid of a bug in level 2

hI rober the tower it´s in 3D, or it´s only 2D... very nice...

Thank you, I think?

Anyway, been busy.

New video here.

- added a new spell called flash (watch video)
- updated the shops to include all currently available spells
- added mana potions (kept running out of mana a bit too much)

In the future I think the special ability of the flash spell will be to break through walls. Right now it deals only a little damage, but it looks pretty nice if you ask me. Lots of different things have been tweaked and changed since the last video, so check this one out. I think you'll like the new particle effects I added to the fireball explosion. Also, I swear, even though I designed this level and I've played it way too many times, yes, I really forgot to get the key...

It does look like 3d on cell shade, if it is 2d, it is a great work shading it that way, it has depth.
