Prototype Update - Boss #1 (WIP)

Dream Fables
A downloadable game for Windows

Hey!

After a few months of little to no work on the project, a few weeks ago I had a little re-ignition and decided to try to wrap up the first level as much as possible.

The update resulted in a few additions:

  • Boss #1 is in the game. Cevaria on her conjured junk-crab-beast. Right now, you get thrown into the combat with no dialogue before or after she's defeated. (You have to alt F4 when the fight is done) Hope to add that in the coming weeks for a full loop back to the hub. Let me know what you think!
  • You should now get the proper font in the binary (No installs or anything funky) and no weird looking or out of place substitute fonts.
  • When you boot the game, you sometimes had a bug where the first dialogue just repeated itself and you're unable to progress. This should now be fixed.
  • You now unlock the first well in the HUB by standing on it and pressing down. 100% more juicy. Added more wells in a new layout for the future levels. The little flying worm in the middle is named "Lars" and will help you unlock the wells as you go.
  • Changed the contrast of the background (And started polishing it) to be further differentiated from the foreground.
  • Added a few more elements to the tileset to make it more lively.
  • Ground "poff" VFX and SFX when you land.
  • New Leaping-devil-frog enemy.
  • Enemy carcass is left on the ground as defeated.
  • Added portrait to Brenton dialogue.
  • Player makes a "flip" on your every other jump animation.
  • Once you defeat Cevaria, you will unlock "Skill 1". Which is a charging-projectile. Hold "Down" and press X once loaded and you have sufficient "MP". Try playing the level again with your new skill!
  • "Mini-boss" now has a Health bar, like the "Big boss".
  • You don't have to install the game anymore, comes neat and tidy as a .exe!

As always, let me know of any bugs and feedback. Hope to deliver a full loop of the game(First level) this year!

Best,

Johan
