I played the MediEvil demo nonstop as a kid. I'd LOVE to try this one out!

I'm pretty sure the game could give you some real MediEvil vibes! Do not hesitate to try out the demo!

How does a developer keep up with ever changing technology when you work on something for 3 years? Can you keep upgrading as new tech comes?

6 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 1

Updates do not change the project itself. The game has really evolved since the beginning but it's mostly skill that matters!

Amazing! Keep us posted!!

This is an ad

I've started reporting these posts. I'm not a fan of ads on the site, but at least pay for your advertising.

Don't forget to report everyone with an etsy store, all webcomics, and whoever mentions their own business or employer in a positive way.

This and Etsy stores yes, they’re directly trying to sell us stuff. Atleast they should be tagged as ads so I can filter this shit out

Since Jack is angry all the time, people will obviously hail at some point :D

What software and such did you use?

6 years ago | Likes 7 Dislikes 2

I'm developing the game on Unreal Engine 4, doing my models in Blender, and the textures are hand-painted on Photoshop!

The camera wobbles are going to make a lot of people nauseous. A lot of folks couldn't play Lords of the Fallen at all because of it. I »

6 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

suggest making a smoother camera an option, if you want it to be accessible to a wide audience. Your call; I'm not personally interested.

6 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

I completly understand what you're saying. While playing the game it's smoother, but i'll try and make it enjoyable for anyone :)

Linux support maybe?

6 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

There's little chance that the game will have Linux support, unfortunately. I can't really afford to do this port =/

Still an ad, sorry

It looks great, but holy crap the shaking camera is making me physically ill. Is there a way to turn that off?

6 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

When you're playing the game, the camera is more stable. However, I'll think about it and see if I can make the game more smooth!

6 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Looks great, though I fear that camera/screen shake could give pretty bad nausea/motion sickness to some people

6 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

I can assure you that while you're playing, the camera is actually enjoyable!

6 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Aah, great work then

Looks pretty cool! I’d probably play it if I wasn’t such a useless piece of shit lmao

I'd probably play it if my pc wasn't a such useless piece of shit. PCU i5 2320, GPU gt 530, RAM just received my 16 gb sticks order yohoo!

Find a new game release (pref. your favourite; mine is Shadow of TR), based on its requirements I see what I need. Worked for me. 2/2

6 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

Looks nice.... but I have to admit, it both looks and sounds (both SE and Music) like "Generic 3D Platformer #8667". While the visuals (1/2)

I love it. Reminds me of twisted treeline on league of legends.

6 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

I created this game because I couldn't find any Halloween game on the store 3 years ago, so I hope it can actually bring something new!

6 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

look good, it's nothing anyone hasn't seen before, Halloween themed or no, it feels like I already played this on the PS2 -AND- PS3. (2/2)

6 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 1

I kind of agree, but I don’t think there’s anything wrong with a known formula either. Not everything has to be innovative, some things can

Just be done well and be worth it.

Cool game. Still an advertisement.

I'm sorry if it feels like an ad, but as a solo-developer I'm just really proud to show my game =/ I can't afford paid advertisement...

Why would you care if it is a hard working indie dev(s)? We need more of them!
