Hello, I usually don't post progress of my hacks unless it's C3 but decided to change today for no reason. It's just a thread to post details and progress of my hack.
Following my C3 summer thread where I announced I cancelled two projects and start a new one lol. Here is more info on this.
The game is called Truc Bidule. It's french which means "Thing thing". I guess you can call these the sequel to Something/Something else although not really.
This hack has many special features that will be explained ingame but I will tell you some of them:
-Pure gameplay experience. No story. Except for optional levels or a few other levels, there will be no message boxes in levels.
-No status bar and everything inside. No lives, timer...
-Mostly linear but very gimmicky levels like I usually do. Maybe too much inspired by the JUMPs.
-Each level will have a hidden 3up moon. Since there are no lives, these moons are useless... are they?
-Mostly new levels. However some levels will be sequels or remake to levels I made in previous projects. Including remake of levels from Super Butt World 2 with normal difficulty so non-kaizo players can finally experience them.
Progess:
I said that the game will be completed before 2020. That was a lie. Too much IRL stuffs and other circumstances make it that it will be finished hopefully somewhere in 2020. I will try to have it at least 50% completed at C3.
In term of progress, well just look:
red is completed, grey is 10% done, green is 50% done and blue is +95% done. The main overworld is this mess but the submaps are mostly done minus events. I will not post them yet.
You can see that there won't be too many levels in the game. Also some levels may be short. There's no standard length, some may have multiple midpoints some not.
There will be some big levels with multiple paths. For these, once you complete them you will be able to go back to any midpoints easily.
In term of showing progress, I will post small video previews of various levels. Not all levels will have videos. All levels shown are still WIP and may be different in the final version.
1-2 HONOFF RIVER
Sometimes there's water and sometimes not
1-3 MOLE STROLL
Different kinds of moles
2-1 FEATHER FEVER
Everyone love to wear capes
5-1 FOREVER YOSHI
A dumb idea where Yoshi always respawn under you.
6-2 WHALES
I need to find a level name.
I'm trying different quality option for my videos every time. Size and quality vary a lot, sorry.
As you can guess, I do not make levels in game order.
I will try to update this first post if I post a new video once this thread get more than one page so you can see them all on one page.
That's all. Next progress report for C3.
