The Diasporic Crypt

Just tried the latest revision - inside godot and exported. The framerate in the catacombs is alright , but the sandbox is still choppy. For some reason it gets better if I walk to the left.Also the debug window is full of this message "ERROR: canvas_item_add_triangle_array: Condition ' ps % 3 != 0' is true. AT servers/visual/visual_server_raster.cpp: 3740I hope this helps.Btw. the death animation is genius :D

After a little bit of research, it appears that another message from GLES shows up when there is a texture somewhere with size set to 0, 0. I suspect this might be related to the canvas_item_add_triangle_array calls, but I'm not sure. I'm going to have to find this texture and fix it.

[quote]Is that the area with all the enemies or the pit with the zombie target just before that?[/quote]I think I cornered it to as soon as I get away from anything that's in the air ;)As soon as I kill the burning skull, the framerate gets much smoother. Also platforms seem take a bit of performance.

dkrey, btw it might be useful to know also what gpu those systems had, might it have something todo with the graphics drivers for an example?

Guess I should mention that I fixed a few of the reoccurring error messages (like the triangle_array one that keeps popping up). I doubt that will improve the speed very much for you, and I still haven't figured out the issue with the sample player malloc error. Apparently, there is this list of sample related stuff in a list that should be freed before the destructor gets called. If they're not freed, the list is printed out in the error console. No clue how that works exactly.

I fixed the issue with the malloc errors.Basically, this is what happened: https://github.com/godotengine/godot/issues/4332Now it shouldn't crash on closing.

Some more updates.The "catacombs" level has received a total makeover, and now it looks more like one. You can also sleep in the coffin to restore health.I put up the first tutorial level. People are free to try it. It's a bit of a unique level though because it's one of only a few levels that are shared between both characters.[url=http://postimage.org/][img width=760 height=561]http://s31.postimg.org/crl6389aj/catacombs.jpg[/img][/url]

lookin' great!

Extremely impressive! Just catching up, and the amount of work you're putting into this is incredibly inspiring!

beelzy

Thanks for all the comments.Sorry for the lack of updates, but I suppose planning all the levels would have taken some time and not much else to show, and there wasn't really a good place to just stop to take screenshots or show off features, so I guess I'll do that now.Here are a few bosses. I don't want to spoil the strategy too much, so they're just screenshots. I pushed the changes though, so you can try them yourselves if you'd like. The tilesets are obviously not final either. They're just there so that I have a level, and will be replaced later.[img width=760 height=562]http://s32.postimg.org/jji09c1tx/statuehead2.png[/img]I had another idea for this boss which involved having a specific BGM for this fight with four voices in it (an SATB thing). Unfortunately, it's hard to find something like that for something as intense as a boss fight. Beethoven's 9th symphony, for example, is way too happy for something like this.[img width=760 height=562]http://s32.postimg.org/g7p9k29tx/firedragon.png[/img]

Yes I'm still working on this. So I finished most of the boss implementations, but they're designed to be beaten by specific characters (haven't restricted the levels yet). You can try them anyways:FriederichBerg FortressMarble CastleLava CaveAdelaAqueductholy ruinsCryptAnd here's a new tileset for one of the levels.[img width=760 height=562]http://s33.postimg.org/uiku5fpgv/castle.jpg[/img]Wondering if it offers enough contrast.

Nom Nom Nom...This game looks pretty amazing.The source is very well organized. I'm learning ( G: ) a lot from you, my man.

beelzy

Thanks.Is the code really that nice? I was worried it was starting to get messy in there, considering what you can do with this game. A lot of the physics features don't rely on the physics engine.Some more tilesets. I gave the other one more contrast.[img width=760 height=563]http://s33.postimg.org/y866g3mi7/castle4.png[/img][img width=760 height=562]http://s33.postimg.org/xft7ow68v/cave.png[/img]

Megalomaniak

Oh yeah, that contrast definitely helps, the green wallpaper BG definitely gave ma a "Santa's workshop" feel earlier, but not any longer. :)

Nice project. I want to create a 2D king of fighter's clone as fanart!Mugen creators and paintown creators do it. I will don't sell because companies don't sue fanart(Only SEGA and Nintendo sue).

First level is up now. Feel free to play test. It's intended to be a Friederich level. The map isn't masked yet though, so if you get enough of the map covered, it won't display properly on the menu. I'll fix it eventually. I'm still undecided on what the goal items for non boss levels should be. There is now a new generic NPC, but I haven't decided which NPC it will be in the first level (I'll figure that out eventually). The generic one just gives you random hints or sells stuff when you find it. <img title="Image: http://forum.freegamedev.net/download/file.php?id=10011&mode=view" src="http://forum.freegamedev.net/download/file.php?id=10011&mode=view" alt="">

Looking great man, be sure to, when publishing, remove any mention of 'castlevania' from it. To avoid any entanglements in the future. Just call it vampire exploration game or something of a sort.

beelzy

Thanks. I was actually considering changing the title to something else. It wouldn't really be a good idea to call a full featured game a clone of another existing franchise.
