Re: Alex95's Power Master Thread

The demo for Power Master 1: A Strange Journey MV is now available for download, on either Windows, Linux, or Mac systems! Demo is available at a minimal price of $1, which will help me buy more games hire more professional artists that can help my game look more, well, professional! And also pay bills and stuff, cause I like having a roof over my head and eating and whatever :P

Download it here! https://powermaster.itch.io/power-master-1-a-strange-journey-mv-demo

Will work on getting it available for Steam and Nintendo eShop next.
 
Re: Alex95's Power Master Thread (Demo available!)

idk, even though I've already made a few of them, I'm considering redoing the portraits. I'm not the greatest artist and that shows sometimes, so it might be best to have the large busts be condensed into simple headshots, which are easier for me and don't take a lot of time to make.

I'll draw up some concepts later, but what do you guys think?

Brainstorming some weapons and other things! Any ideas?

btw, slight hitch in getting the game demo uploaded for Steam, but it should be up within the next couple of days. :-\
 
Re: Alex95's Power Master Thread (Demo available!)

Personally, I don't think Lunar really fits with Poison. Perhaps you could call it something like Viper? Lunar sounds cool definitely, but I think it would be better suited for, say, Sleep.
 
Re: Alex95's Power Master Thread (Demo available!)

Lunar (along with Pyro, Frost, etc.) are other names based on elements, in this case, Dark. I thought Poison would be fitting for Dark type attacks, and I couldn't think of a good ailment for Earth, so I gave it Sleep. idk, in my mind, it makes sense :P
 
Re: Alex95's Power Master Thread (Demo available!)

Of course, if it makes sense for you, then go for it! I was just a bit confused.
 
Re: Alex95's Power Master Thread (Demo available!)

Great work! I'd like to download the demo. Is there any way to pay other than using a credit card? If not, I may have to borrow one of my parents' credit cards and pay them back in cash. :P
 
Re: Alex95's Power Master Thread (Demo available!)

Okay, so, some minor bad news: Steam version isn't happening, at least for the time being. The payment needed to put the game up is too high at the moment and is currently not affordable. Maybe a Steam release could happen later down the road, but for now, it's not viable. Here's hoping a Nintendo eShop version is still possible. If not, then I'll just work with what I can do.

In terms of development, I'm still working on database stuff and haven't really progressed further than the first town. One change I decided on slowed me down a bit: I want character graphics to change based on the armor they are wearing. This is totally possible, but it requires redoing the armor setup and creating additional character sprites, which I can do. So, along with the work I'm doing for the Mario Wiki and my own, I think I have a good pace here. Just need to keep my ideas from overflowing to the point where I start conflicting myself :P I'll post some work I have on that at a later date.
