[_] Metroidvania Opening Demo shidunzooooo 02/16/13(Sat)19:03 No.1887986
Small cinematic I've been working on for my metroidvania game. It's got a playable demo after the
cutscenes. Get to your objective on the map.
Controls: Arrows: movement
Jump: Z
Shoot: A
Pause: shift
Use the map to find out where to go.
HINT: Breakable walls and floors.

works fine, near as I can tell. but impossible to get to the first objective.

Interesting concept, but yes theres no way to get to the objective.

Definitely change the title, unless you're going to revamp the mechanics because as it is it does
not reflect castlevania enough to really fit.

Nothing is happening when you reach the objective, as of right now. It's merely a place you have
to go. It will trigger a cutscene and something else will happen, with a new objective.

This is just the cinematic, it tells the story before the castlevania part kicks in.

Great job so far, looking forward to seeing more of it.
Criticism:
Walk animation looks weak, the knees don't come up enough for how fast he's moving. Obviously
might be rocket assisted or some such, but to me it looks like he has wheels on his feet and is
moving via some sort of shimmy.
Z and A instead of Z and X. Autism overdrive on my part.
You control the game completely through the keyboard, but advance conversations with the mouse.
This is just a demo so hopefully you're already planning to fix that.

Walking animation is from the sprites from the game, so I'd have to custom sprite the walk
animation. The BSL scientist is only playable in the intro, you'll play as Jonathan Morris
afterwards. I'll change the Mouse vs keyboard thing later. I kind of finished all the mechanics
myself and I just left them once I figured them out, I'll iron out kinks as I fine tune it and
add the enemy/first boss.
