MIRAK'S PROFILE

Thank you for the review Addict!

I would like to clarify this bit:

From what I know there was just the addition of the checkpoints, and it was not changed much but I admit I did not replay the game fully

Actually besides the checkpoint after beating the second screen, all of the maps were modified, with the fourth one (the one people had most trouble with) was completely redone and re-tiled, all enemies were reprogrammed to have a more specific AI that wouldn't take players by surprise as much (originally, kangaroos did NOT move like goombas, they would wait for the player to get close, and then would launch themselves forward really fast, they also had interrupting code to make their movement unpredictable, which means sometimes kangaroos would rush at you, but then STOP a bit before reaching the player, the original intention being making "challenging" gameplay which sadly wasn't challenging, but impossible because then players wouldn't know when to jump and would 9 out of 10 times get killed.

After reprogramming every enemy I removed all of the "collission bumps" on the places where enemies were, since they were necessary to make the previous kangaroo code work. The unintentional effect was that players would bump their heads on those while doing the big jumps and fall on pits, dying from reasons that would seem had nothing to do with player input or skill. After coding the enemies to have a fixed pattern of movement, the bumps were no longer necessary, so with their deletion there was no more danger of bumping your head on a kaizo-like trap.

Finally, enemies were repositioned so they would enter the player's field of vision way before the player had jumped to the "patrol area" of the enemies, erasing most instances where frustrated players who only wanted to rush past the levels would be surprised by an enemy who was slightly off-camera too late for the player to jump over them.

I know when playing the game all of these changes might not be perceptible since most of them are engine-side, but there was definitely a lot more going on to the final version of the game that just patching it with a band-aid. The same way the platformer section was reworked and re-tooled, so were the zelda and rpg sections since those also had quite a few bugs in the beta like some zelda enemies being able to hurt you for 2 hearts instead of 1, the player being able to win the "boss duel" at the end before killing all the enemies, the game not realizing you killed all enemies and blocking further progress, enemies being able to launch several "last attacks" after being killed instead of just 1, etc.

Thankfully, despite GB studio's apparent niggles, it IS quite more benevolent than other similar game engines I've tried, and all of the bugs were correctable provided I kept a cool head. I really liked my experience using it and even though I genuinelly don't think I can do anything more, say, "different" than this game, I do want to play with it again in the future, perhaps in another event!

Hello my name is Kazuki Takamura and my game Blessed Relics Chronis is still still pending. I submitted the game on the 24th of April. I didn't know how to contact the staff directly so I am posting here. I want to know whether there are things I need to fix on the game's description or not. If any staff sees this think you taking the time to look at this.

Acceptance of games happens manually around once every week or two. If yours hasnt been accepted yet it might be because admin hasn't gone through the queue yet or maybe it was denied for some reason, so be sure you don't have a PM in your inbox telling you what changes need to be made, because if you got denied you'll have one there.

Made you a couple but they might need more refining/cartoonizing.
Feel free to edit.




They have hooks, but you can't see them because of RMN's whiteness.

That's... Very strange. I always start with LOOPSTART and they work fine.
Oh well, I'm glad you got it working!
