Cool. You've done a great job!

I made a gate and key! Once you pickup the key the gate goes away. I'm going to have keys for different angled gates later but for now I just have this one! But it works so I'm happy! xD

I forgot to add a drop shadow........But here are the new gates and keys.

mokonafan: wow, things are happening in the rose garden! you've worked hard on this. i've always liked picking up keys, look forward to playing this new version . nice work on the rain too - did you manage to get it top-down?

Looking good I'm curious, what audience is the game intended for?

Update - :

I'm going to color these 3 in then make them smaller so the player will turn depending on the direction I'm going.







Top down never happened. :\
It looked really stupid to be honest. xD




Well it's meant for anyone, but I'm pretty sure girls would be more attracted to it since most guys don't wanna pick pansies in the rain!

I made the play-able character change!

I made a video showing the playable character anddd the keys and gates working.

I'm working on a new demo specially made in a new project file, so new rooms and all that.

A few updates:

1:
I made this opening animation for the game before the menu.
Link Here

2:

I made point transformers!

These transform the point-drainers in to point givers, the rose does the rose point drainer and the pansy the pansy point drainer. - in game they glow.



The rose turns from taking 60 points to giving 60 points, and the pansy turns from taking 120 points to giving 120 points.

3:

I made blocks that transform in to broken blocks when you pick up a hammer.

+ =

Basically you pick up a hammer and the object changes from a solid block to a crashed image I can "walk" over.

That's about it for nows!

Enjoy! :3

cool. I didn't see anything in your links so went to your blog. Looks great so far.

Odd I don't know why you didn't see anything...O.o
Oh wells!

Here's the full animation I don't remember if I put it on my Factoid Firefly or not. xD

New power-up!

If you pick this up, it makes you go twice as fast for a limited time!

New "power up" thingy...An Enemy Nullifier! You pick this up and the enemies that move are harmless for a set amount of time! - I'll admit I say this idea in a "sample" in gamemaker a long time ago but I figured out how to do it myself.

<--- T stands for transform but I think I might change to an N for nullify.

And here is a video showing some of the new stuff in action!

Coming along nicely. Good video - I like sitting back and watching other people play.

I'm working hard to make the demo finished, still trying to work out some bugs that are really out to get me.
Meanwhile, here's some screenshots to keep you all busy.

Ignore the little circle things with a ? in them, those are spriteless objects to make music work and stuff.

Points Menu - Kinda like an index


Main Menu - Demo


How To Play Menu - This might change later but for now I'm happy with it. xD


How to Play - Player Movements



Look up top, what's there? *GASP!!!* A New Scoreboarddddddd!



Level 7:



Enjoy! :3

mokonafan: coming along nicely, sister! i'm looking forward to trying the demo when you have finished it - i want to give those moving enemies something to think of . it's looking very professional now, the graphics are just lovely.

Atm I'm trying to get this silly game to work! I think the enemies are scared to be shown up by you!

The opening videos are corrupting when I export the game................................................................
I'll figure it out eventually.

I'm just gonna remove 3 of the 4 videos they make the game too big anyway.

Here's a load-screen I made for the game.
