Development Notes

Status

• Sound - a single music track and limited sound effects.
• Ability to save to the SD card.
• Kind of short, and lacking in enemy types.
• Enemy collisions are still a little awkward.

Stuff that will be in next release

• (no information yet)

Added in v.20100402

• Sound effects (hooray!)
• More backgrounds
• Rain effect
• New/tweaked areas, new enemies

Added in v.20100324b

• Oops, I included the wrong binary. Updated to fix.

Added in v.20100324

• Early sound support.
• Save points (removed lives system).
• Removed weapon shop (the weapons will return in some form later)
• New Enemies, new graphics
• Candles/enemies can drop more than a basic weapon energy item (though the levels haven't been greatly updated for this yet)
• Levels changed, redesigned
• Parallax scrolling background
• Breakable blocks
• Stairs - crude and lacking proper graphics, but a good start.

Added in v.20090225

• Various tweaks.
• Improved player collision with blocks.
• New Enemies:
  • Will-O-the-Wisp
  • Turbo Zombies
• The skeleton's bones now bounce, and there are skeletons with different weapons.
• New Levels
• Added lives system. If you run out of lives, you'll continue at the start of the level.
• Item shop (WIP). For now, everything is free, and most are similar to each other.

Added in v.20090127

• Backdash (press B)
• Increased the size of the player and some monsters (*1.25) This will allow more detail at some point.
• Fixed a block collision bug
• Weapon hits (a little) more precisely
• Fixed a bug preventing 'game over' when you die
• Greatly reduced HP
• Enemy: Leap Spiders
• Boss: The Tyrant
• Crouching attack
• Removed a bunch of redundant stuff; this version is smaller (oops)

Ideas / Stuff I may or may not add

(If you have some ideas, feel free to put them on the talk page.)

• More blood and gore
• More weapons for both the player and monsters
• Item shop - buy weapons, skills
• Traps
• "Rounds" for replay value. Changes based on number of times game is completed.
• Sorcerer player character. (In development)
