Just Like Make Game

>>28330436
Is that the software you're using to make the game, or is it just an 8-bit-esque art program?

>>28330453
I'm using PICO-8 to make the game. It has art, level, and music editors built in for making 8-bit style games.

A young unicorn sorceress.

Make her Trixie and you have my vote.

8-bit Trixie, check.

Now, who are the bad guys in this game?

I can make some pixel art and some 8-bit music if you need help

I use aseprite, GIMP, Tiled, FL Studio and Abelton Live

>>28330563
diamond dogs, or maybe neighsayers

>>28330571
>I use aseprite, GIMP, Tiled, FL Studio and Abelton Live
I think that the editor op is using doesn't support external formats. Also, for an 8-bit game, FL and Ableton are overkill. Classic chiptunes made with something like ModPlug are the way to go.

You got a portfolio? Show me some art, and sound me some of your music.

If neighsayers are involved, add M6 as champions/bosses

Ahgg

Alright, here's this ugly motherfucker.

How does Trixie fight the diamond dogs? Blast them with magic, or something else?

>>28330579
This, and also, the goal isn't to make the next great horse game, just to make something simple and fun in a few hours.

>>28330620
>in a few hours
Nigga do you have any idea how much time a game takes to make?

>>28330629
I did warn you in the OP, it's going to be a shitty game.

>>28330620
firework spells, differentiate if you can.
Rockets going straight, bigass firecrackers with area damage, firesquares for aoe dot.

It would probably be too much work to add all of those, but here's some basic fireworks.

Now, where are they fighting?

>>28330745
On the stage, of course!

Pic related, and here's a clyp of an idea for the game's music. If you like it, I can upload a lossless version or expand it as you see fit

The stage it is then. Give me a few more minutes and I'll have the rockets working.

Your music is bad and you should feel bad.

Firing rockets works now. Next, making them damage the badguys.

Because you made this thread, I went ahead and purchased Voxatron and PICO-8.
Hell knows if I'll ever get around to learning shit.

Badguys die when they are killed

Cool. I haven't done much with it yet but it seems pretty nice.

>>28331252
Yeah. For anyone curious, PICO-8 comes with Voxatron, so getting Voxatron is probably the better deal.

Now you also take damage (or die) if an enemy reaches you

>>28331418

>>28331418
Now make shitty music and shitty sound fx and gg

Enemies now spawn in waves. Here you can watch me lose horribly after only wave 3.

>>28331455
I'm gonna try to find somewhere to publish this thing so people can try it out, but after that I'll see about adding a few sound effects.

Now updated with annoying sound effects and harder enemies! (the ones with green jackets take two hits to kill)
