News from the developer: 26/2-09

It's been a long time since the last post, and a long time since I uploaded my last video to YouTube. But I've been really busy, unfortunalety not making games but I'm trying to put some time into game development whenever I can and feel for it. To kinda get myself back in shape I've been experimenting to regain creative thoughts. The results of those days has been Boulder Quest, a puzzle-RPG fully created in VX. You've probably seen these kinds of puzzle-mechanics before, but I'm planning to use them in completely different ways.

I've released a demo, or a beta, or an alpha or whatever you may call it and a short video of the tutorial-level. You can watch the video and download the demo, with or without RTP here.

The demo is extremely short, and expect just a few minutes of play, this demo is only for response and for advertisement. It includes the tutorial-level as seen in the video and the first level. You'll also get a glimse of the Super Mario World-style world map as well, which will grow with content as development continues. Oh, and The Explorers and The Residence of Old Riddles are on pause, but not out. The Explorers, however is delayed to 2010 since it's a massive project and I need some more experience before continuing on that one. The Residence of Old Riddles is still scheduled for this fall.

Wide-Screen Video

Uploaded a new video from The Explorers, actually not to show off the game but to show how VX looks in wide-screen. It's awfully blurry in Low Quality, so here's the link to the HQ:

This is a video made in a rush, didn't have much time and is nothing special at all. But it's a new video, and some people might actually want to see it. There's a link to the resolution script in the video description. Thanks!

Merry Christmas: New video out

Yes, as the topic says: Merry Christmas, and the new video of The Explorers is out for showcase to the public. The video contains as said in the last post some gameplay with a battle taking up most of the play-time. But now, here's the link to the video:
