It's a Bubble Bobble-inspired game with shmup bonus levels.

This demo features :
- 20 levels
- Large visual overhaul
- Gameplay tweaks

As a Linux user, it's surprising when I learn an artist I follow is *also* using Linux 😅 A few years ago it was a rarity, it seems a lot more people are trying it out now !

I've reworked the title screen a bit. Also, player 2 finally has their own sprites, instead of a palette swap !

I might release a new demo in the coming months.
I feel like I've made enough changes to justify releasing a new build.

A screenshot of a video game tutorial. The main character is in a small level, displayed on the screen of an arcade machine, with visible joysticks and buttons at the bottom of the image. At the top, a text box reads "Knock out multiple enemies for more points and objects"

Unrelated to my last post, I've also added extra graphics to the tutorial screen. It looks like this now.

I'm contemplating redoing some of the player animations.
That would take a lot of work, but I kind of prefer this new design…
What do you think ?

The visualiser is based on this : gist.github.com/fcingolani/0...

Here's a demonstration of #pathfinding in my #godot game.

The level tiles are parsed to create an AStar2D graph.
The graph allows falling off ledges (the angled lines) and jumping on / falling through platforms.

Not every enemy will use this but I think it will come in handy !

Working on a new enemy for my game.
Here's a few sprites !

I'm redoing the graphics in world 1, I wasn't satisfied with them anymore.
I might update the web demo to include these new graphics.

Thank you ! 😀

That's quite the compliment, thank you ! 😅 I was very much inspired by it ! I loved the expressiveness and the smooth animations.

Hi, I'm new to BlueSky !
I'm a solo indie gamedev, working on a Bubble Bobble-style game with #godot. It also includes shmup sections.

Here's some gameplay footage.
