Hi all,
I've been working on a game called Nightveld, I just setup the itch.io page a couple of days ago and I'm starting to share some more details about it, though I've been working on it for a couple of months.
The short pitch is this: Demons are pouring out of the dark nothingness and you are a single point of light in the NIGHTVELD. Everything beyond your light is going to hunt you. Nightveld is a desktop bullet-heaven of light against shadow. The dark is full of things that want you, and your only weapon is the light you cast.
Here's a quick gameplay video
I've been working for the past week on preparing a play testable demo (not yet ready but very soon, maybe a few days), but one thing I wanted to try out before is having the enemies (called Shades) cast shadows from the light source the player emits. I think it worked beautifully, so I wanted to share and get any feedback.
If anyone is interested in following the journey, please check https://beshr.itch.io/nightveld, especially if you're is interested in play testing. Some more screenshots on the game page.
Thanks for reading!
