Hi everyone,

I am taking a break from the development of The Outermost Bastion for participate at the #LOWREZJAM 2017 on itch.io https://itch.io/jam/lowrezjam2017

Last year I did 64x64 UFOs in about 15 hours http://gamejolt.com/games/64x64-ufos/200076

This year, with the help of a friend that is taking care about the art and with a bit of more free time, I am experimenting something new for me but a genre that I love. Horizontal scrolling beat 'em up!

So far after being stuck a bit with the code, I am progressing quite well.

Here you can see in chronological order the videos of my work in progress game (aimed to be up to 4 players), 64x64 ill-fated:

VIDEO 1 - First testing, goblin enemy and cave with parallax.

https://youtu.be/c4rBU28umZY

VIDEO 2 - Multiple enemies, Life/Stamina/Mind bars. You can attack only if you have stamina left, every attack drains some stamina. To make it fair, enemies as well have stamina. Torch effects.

https://youtu.be/J4CTwD9FQH4

VIDEO 3 - New enemy with different logic, first attack normally and then stick on you and suck your blood.

VIDEO 4 - Multiplayer (2 players for the moment), New boss monster: Drake, Loss of sanity effect (not on video, you will have to try it in the game).

Let me know if you would like to know more about the game, I will try to squeeze some time before the end of the competition to give you more info

EDIT:

VIDEO 5 - Control selection screen, character selection and multiplayer for 4 players in actions.

Thank you Donald

I am not sure if we have time to adjust the art before the end of the competition since lots is still missing, but if people will like the game we'll keep developing it and make it looks better

By the way, how can I quote you using "@"? Your name has a space in the middle and if I try I get only the user called Donald.

Thank you vutankhoa2015

The game is local multiplayer only, I have developed purposely in that way to remember the old time having fun with friends playing next to each other. No online multiplayer will be added, or at list not for a long time.

I dig the pixel art.

Thank you staleevolution, I will let Lysa, the artist, know that you like it

I am working now to port the game on AirConsole, after there will be soon new updates

Yes, online multiplayer is much harder, that's why I am not getting into it yet. First I want to be confident with local multiplayer and make the move later.

In these days I am working to port the game on AirConsole so it is a bit step further, not easy but doable. Just takes more time and lots of patience with testing.
