[DEMO] Quest of a Mang

DEMO


Re-using this topic instead of making a completely new topic.


Right, so I've been making this game for quite a while now, It's called 'Quest of a Mang' it's an adventure platformer that sees you go through 8 dungeons, defeating enemies and bosses, and ultimately rebuilding the sun to return light to the world.

I have programmed and sprited all of it myself, and i do have a composer who has created some pieces for the game, but he's brazilian, and goes to night uni so he's hardly on, and when he is on he hardly ever does anything :V.

Screenshots:






If anyone does want to help compose/make sound effects by the way, just pm or post in this topic.

If you're only looking for a composer but do not want to discuss your game, then this topic shouldn't be here but either in the Help forum or maybe in the Misc Discussion.

If you want the game (or the video) to be discussed here you should rename the topic.

or it could go into the arts board...?

Dunno.

Yeah, i was just editing it whilst you posted, should be fixed now.

This game is looking great so far, but maybe you could add an airmeter to the underwater area?

There is this great tool called SFXR that can create a variety of simple sound effects. It can be downloaded from here.

I'm already in a game project as a composer, but if you don't desperately need music, I can help.

Thanks Hohoo that sound effects tool really helps.

BUMP - See first post

As said, looks absolutely stunning.

badass
BAD

ASS

Awesome, I really like the sprites
And "ultimately rebuilding the sun" Yes!

Theres also Another thing which you can..do..with the sun before you put it back in the sky, but that would be spoilers about the final boss fight so... B]

Okay now you got me pumped :>>>>>>>
Mmmmaaann this really has some indie feeling to it
take that mario

may aswell talk about the Ice shuriken seen as its in plain sight on all the screenshots.


The ice shuriken is a projectile weapon that will freeze on contact, there can only be one on screen at a time, and the moment you throw another, the previous one shatters.

If an enemy gets hit by it, it will freeze and stop, it cant do anything for a few seconds.
Now if you hit the frozen enemy with another shuriken.

It explodes in a glorious shower of icey gibbyness.

It also sticks into walls and can be used as a platform to reach secret ares, or to just get out of the way of ground based enemies.

will it stick into anything?
will it melt eventually?
will it work in hot areas (if any)?

Yes, moving platforms, walls, houses, except stuff like ladders though.
If by will it melt do you mean the frozen enemies then yes they do, but if you mean the shuriken whilst its stuck in then no, it wont.
Lots of hot areas, it will melt if it hits lava or an enemy spits fire onto it.



Oh, and it also doesnt work on enemies that are engulfed in flames, and that includes ones you have set on fire yourself.

Is that box with a S on it a Paper Marioish save block?

Yes.

So wait, you can ladder yourself up any wall by jumping and shooting?
Unless it's a steep upside-down hill-kind of wall.

It IS possible but it's insanely difficult to do. We won't bother you with things that are THAT difficult but you might see something along the lines of:


The speed at which the mang falls makes it pretty much impossible to do what you just suggested.

Eh? How so?
Hug a wall - jump - shoot - jump- shoot - etc..
Slow but sure?
