#blood&flames is pretty light on environnemental hazards, but i try to give each level at least one.

The highland has powderpuffs that can fall from the trees and do frost damage.

wait for the end to see kookoos

I don't consider myself a very witty person, so my games tend to be light on jokes, but i do really enjoy this one conversation where Lady tries to get along with the game's main antagonist.

I' ve been receiving some criticism on #thelegallydistinct where the rope jump was said to be pretty unintuitive to use.

It' s a bit tricky to fix as you are meant to be able to jump and drop easily but i' ve been changing it so that jumping uses a double press instead of the up key.

Almost done with Mumfair fight, only got the ending to do.

His second phase trigger at 40% health rather than 60 like other bosses since he becomes so much harder to hit with the clones.

Hes based on the archpriest, a boss that was a tad random in pacman legend as he didnt really connect to any of the plot.

All that was really established was that he was part of an ancient order of sorcerers that had beef with Pac-Man for....reasons...

Okay, currently working on the second secret boss for the knight campaign.

hes the father of Dunmo Dufric, the campaign main antagonist and is locked up in the basement of the mansion.

I' m done with stage 5 on #thelegallydistinct so now im seeing what i can do to improve the credit museum.

I wanted something a bit more dynamic than just a scroll at the end of the game, but this still need a lot of work.

Almost done with sweet cream. Just got some balancing left.

Mouse issues didnt get fixed with another mouse, so it might be a game maker issue. Not sure what to do from here

Making some progress on the sweet Cream fight and cutscene, through there still a lot of stuff to fix up.

Mostly need to give her attack sprites and fix up all the issues.

Sweet Cream is mostly a reboot of elizabeth, the boss of the mansion in pacman revenge.

She is being changed into more of a rival boss, so the fight will mostly feature her guns and grenades, through im sure i ll find some other place in the game for the other attacks which are pretty cool

Been starting work on the boss of the mansion. Through progress has been slow due to a bug with my mouse in game GameMaker Studio.

Hopefully its the mouse at fault and not the program or computer.

Been making some progress on the mansion level. This first section takes place outside and mostly involve combat but the rest of the level takes you inside the mansion and features more stage hazard and platforming.

As some might know, The legally distinct is meant to be a soft remake/reboot of pacman revenge, so i reuse a lot of ideas from it.

I particularly wanted to preserve the mechanic where the butlers became enraged when wine dropped on them from defeating one of their ally.
