A droid story 1.4!

I'm updating some older games, so here we are! It's a little puzzle game about a droid, enjoy!

Changes

• Music everywhere. The soundtrack now plays in the main menu and level select too, not only during play, and it no longer stops and restarts every time you change screen. Each loop fades in, fades out as the track ends and leaves a few seconds of silence before starting again.
• Music on/off button. A music-note icon in the bottom-left corner of every screen turns the music off and on with a mouse click. Turning it back on resumes the track where it stopped.

Optimization

• Windows package. A single ZIP with a native exe and its own bundled Java runtime, about 21 MB in total!

Changes

- Language selectable from the menu. Flag in the top right, one click changes language. Upon startup, the system language starts (English if not supported) and the choice is saved. All game text is translated into Italian.
- The day/night cycle no longer resets on each island. If you finish a level at night, the next one starts at night and the cycle continues.
- The night is less dark, the peak darkness drops by 25%: you can still see where you walk even in the darkest point.
- Seashells glow at night. A soft halo that lights up with the same curve as fireflies; the golden one has the light of its color.
- The crabs are alive. They walk jerkily (a few steps, then a pause),they don't immediately retrace their steps or slip into each other's squares. Before, they would remain still, vibrating in place.
- The character looks the right way even when standing still, and walks animatedly, even up and down: before, as soon as you stopped or climbed, he would look right again.
- Island number in the top right, in "3/10" format, so you always know where you are.
- Readable score in the top left, with the game font enlarged and shaded: it can be read on sand, sea, and at night. Each collection increases a golden "+X" from the point where you collected.
- Clearer menu: panels behind the text, command icons (arrows / WASD), the mode already highlighted upon opening (SPACE starts immediately), and ESC which goes back from character selection.
- Adventure mode is not included in this version: it is still a work in progress and is disabled by configuration; Traditional mode is played.

Fixes

- The day was half as long. The cycle was advanced twice per frame, so 30 seconds instead of the expected 60.

Optimizations

- Package size almost halved: from 45.5 MB to 24.9 MB (-45%)!

Island Survival

 

Life happens, you know ? 

So I've created this little game for my 7yo because I love here so much! And she can also understand all this path I've done here, all these years.

 

 

My passion isn't done for now!

I love games, but also family is a great part of it, so I've build in spare time this little game. Hope she love it!

 

And if you can find this words, remember, we can be together during the day and the night, near the sea! 

Plague tale: innocence

 

Not only Plague tale: innocence is a good game, has a good story and is enjoyable.

Is not perfect, is not too much innovative (even if the swarm of rats are terrifying to see on screen).

It's a good mix of all of this and centered around the relation between a sister and a brother. Something really valuable. A message so powerful can be viewed as "eternal". We are not only a family, we choosed to be a family and help each other.

No matter what.

Go and play it, worth your time!

Spirit of the north

 

I don't play too often games where there are no conflicts, no strategy, not even a clear "enemy".

But this game surprise me, and no image can explain how much good is this game, in terms of narrative, immersion and story.

Not a single word of a story that you as player has to understand: the fox is the character, but player is also part of the game, working on the backstory, understanding the story.

I've found this game easy to play, with okay graphics, but more important it's really, really relaxing and let you think while you play. It's like a friend, you can share and listen, laught and cry, yell and play.

Worth play, it will catch you!
