hikachi Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 Hello Atari Lynx fans! This is a preview topic of my second Atari Lynx game: unnamed. This project is at a very early stage. It might not be finished, it might be only a demo. Time will tell what can be achieved and what is possible on Lynx. Honestly I'm also not sure if I can manage making it. Anyway idea is that Unnamed will be escape adventure game based on graphics and some small portions of text. It will include interaction with environment (collecting items, opening doors etc.) Of course there will be a few rooms / stages. All of this will be submerged in mystery atmoshpere. For now one, i made beta graphics. This is placeholder picture from Handy, enjoy: 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maddog Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 I love the little details on that screen shot - like the candle. It would be nice to see this get all the way to a full release, I'd certainly buy a copy. Good luck 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

7800fan Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Is there bomb in the game? Suspicious looking wall at top left corner. Also the yellow creature inside the house look like a certain electric mouse from a popular game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hikachi Posted September 6, 2017 Author Share Posted September 6, 2017 There is no bomb I want it more text exploration oriented then game you suggest. Hopefully I can manage making full game of it, wish me luck. I will inform about progress in topic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordKraken Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Looks great, I like the super cute pixel art and how much life and details you got despite the super small scale. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vidiot1981 Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 This looks really cool! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hikachi Posted January 31, 2018 Author Share Posted January 31, 2018 Thank you for the kind words! They keep me motivated Work on engine goes not bad, sometimes I could call it even smooth. The only problem is that this kind of game (which is typical for non linear titles) creates a lot of "if''s" in code. So to keep everything together I will simplify some things for now on (like menus or items). Whats current status? Moving, looking, taking, and using is done (in beta stage). I will produce logic for first room this weekend hopefully 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrekMD Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 This looks really nice! I hope you make it into a full game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doctorclu Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Shut up and take my money...! Someday someone needs to use this as a video game title. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hikachi Posted February 9, 2018 Author Share Posted February 9, 2018 (edited) So.. first room created Need to fix some details in engine but overall it's working. Now I'm designing more rooms on the paper. It requires a lot of thinking, but it is really fun! As a child, I painted similar things. This is how it looks (censored with blur): Edited February 9, 2018 by hikachi 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlidellMan Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Reminds me of the late-'00s Flixel craze on Newgrounds, but on the Atari Lynx. I look forward to the finished version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hikachi Posted March 31, 2018 Author Share Posted March 31, 2018 (edited) Project of game stages is completed on paper. Now I am redrawing them in GIMP Work goes slowly because I do it only in my free time. I also created simple website about my games. Is is available here http://totheunseen.kylos.pl - click on Marcin Siwek Homebrew Games to access it. You can also find more info about game unseen there.

hikachi Posted March 31, 2018 Author Share Posted March 31, 2018 Thank you! I forgot to mention that there is also site about my photography / movies.
