Hey guys, I just thought I'd make a thread detailing the progress of this game I'm working on.
It's still in very early development and until I get a better PC, I'm mostly just working on sprites.
The main plot line follows the journey of Max as he tries to find a way to rebuild his village and defeat the four demon lords. Gameplay-wise, I want this game to be similar to the original legend of zelda with dungeon crawling top-down ish view, but similar to Monster Hunter in entertaining boss battles and combo attacks. Also, there are multiple characters you can switch to at any time.
Here's a rundown of some characters I made:
These are the main characters:
Maxwell Gates (also known as Max) lived in the peaceful mountain village of Aspen Creek... before a mysterious man in a bird mask slaughtered all the inhabitants and set the village on fire. Max soon discovers that he has magic powers that grow every time he slays a monster and sets off on a quest to defeat the man in the bird mask and find a way to rebuild his village.
Weapons:
Maxy's magical powers include blasts of energy, levitation, and even boosting his own phsyical strength. However, Max must be careful because sometimes, these magic powers can be very dangerous...
Belladonna is a legendary warrior from the island of Ragna Rock. Despite her size, she is known for slaying many powerful beasts including the Saw Shark her sword is made from.
Weapons:
Belladonna lives by her massive sword. She's able to deliver crushing combo attacks and dash around with the blade in hand. Some might even say that the sword has a mind of its own...
Oakley Jones is a lumberjack trying to run from his past as the future leader of a forest tribe of archers.
Weapons:
Oakley uses a powerful, sturdy log cut from the Great Oak that can smash through metal weapons with relative ease. Also, due to being raised in the forest he is able to communicate with forest animals and grow plants very fast. He prefers to ignore this gift, as it reminds him of his past.
These are the main villains, known as the Demon Lords. Forgive me if the descriptions aren't as fleshed out, but I haven't done as much work on these guys yet.
Skullcleaver.
He's buff, he uses a hammer.
Gregor. He's actually Oakley's father (spoilers!!!)
He uses a bow.
aaaand this sexy, unnamed hammerhead shark.
Miscellaneous sprites:
A robot
So what do you guys think? What should I add? What should I name the shark man? Post below!
