hey there, i kinda forgot about this ngl
i will not be active (like at all) today bc field trip from 2022-10-06T17:00:00Z → 2022-10-07T01:45:00Z
Okay, can you help with that I’ll talk to some other ppl about it too, thx
We need to plan a little, but you can check on the game and make ideas to help it evolve
Ok, thank you!!!
We still doing the same kind of art style or are we changing it up?
we can if you want to, but it can also stay the same. I gtg we’ll talk about it later.
you can work on some new designs and monsters though, we will need more levels anyway.
Just post any ideas you may have here.
Remade the project with some new things:
(I only focused on the coding part, not the art)
To summarize:
- Project moves at a higher fps than before
- Added a progress bar
- Checkpoints, start, & finish
- pkplat engine (by @pumpkinhead)
- Uses my vcam version 0.03
- Player hits go farther distance
- Breakable block
- Both arrow keys and wasd controls work
- Enemies aren’t added in yet
- Pause button + menu aren’t there yet
- Beginning dialogue isn’t there yet
- We still need to plan the first level
- We still need to work on the art
Since this is a group project, I thought using pumpkinhead’s platformer engine would be a better option since it’ll make it easier for you guys to add platforms in without needing to code anything (all you need to do is draw a square in the frame named “level,” and done).
Of course, right now we only have the “base” for the game done.
Here’s the file:

Note: Add art in the “Art” layer, and don’t use the “Platforms” layer for anything other than adding platforms.
Also, for this project, I think we should set a goal right now, for example, how many levels do we want to make in total? Around how many enemies would be a good number? etc.?
And let’s start planning how we’d want the first level to go as well.
Will this game have a story or just “blob do funi thing”?
great!!! I’ll play ir.
A little of both.
We need to add more levels, a storyline, and we need to upgrade the art a bit, but you really helped by doing that.
I like this, but ofc it would have a little different art, but I mean the concept of the blocks and lighting.
you can work on a storyline if you want to!
Ok so hear me out
-
Evil blob factory built to create blob factory workers
-
The lovable blob escapes from it
-
They run away
-
Trains to come back and save the other blobs (tutorial anyone?)
-
World 1: Grassland (10-20 levels)
-
World 2: Cave (6-12 levels)
-
World 3: Factory (10-25 levels)
-
Final boss fight across the factory
-
All the blobs you saved help you launch a final attack
-
The factory is destroyed and you win
IDK, just spitballing
I like it, I’ll look into it, work on trying to animate a factory if you can
