I think I stumbled upon a really interesting way to create animations. Dabbled a bit with it as a improved visual for the Apostles teleport.

Feel free to weigh in what you think of the animation!

I've received some feedback about the boss fight and fixed a few bugs, so hopefully it will be less punishing if you fail to dodge an attack now. Pushed the patch to Itch.io!

Thank you for reporting the bugs people!

I cleaned up the graphics a bit for the relic "Revenant" which spawns homing exploding skulls whenever you take damage. I found the old version to be too big.

Feedback welcome!

Still a few loose ends to take care of. But after that I will publish a test version over on Itch.io. This is not the full DEMO however, that is still in development, but I wanted to get a more up to date version out for y'all!

Still very much a work in progress. But I am pretty sure this is the final "layout" of the boss room.

Also the floors might not always be under your feet, exclamation marks temporary to show when they become unstable. Stay alert!

Currently working on the very first cutscene for Throne of Marrow, which is the boss introduction. Also got around to playtesting some new attacks!

I was updating the text for interactable objects so it makes text less blurry overall, and decided to give the entrance/exits some love. So now there's some nice god rays spilling out of them!

Currently working on the monthly Patreon post, got delayed due to studies.

In the meantime I hit 200 followers. So here's some relics behind the scenes.

Skadi's Pendant, Revenant and Sands of Fate. Explanation below!

A bit chilly outside today, don't ya think? Or maybe it's just my aura.

No rest for the wicked. Unless my voice is wicked because I managed to get the flu and am having constant coughing fits.

Really wanted to have a video out showcasing all the new progress in Throne of Marrow, but it will have to wait!

Finally got all the bugs squashed, couldn't for the life of me understand why my map was choppy when scrolling around. Then I found out that my game ran at a whopping 1 fps while paused.

Sometimes my genius is almost frightening.

I seem to have gotten a lot of followers the past few days and I can't quite fathom why. But I wanted to just say thanks for stopping by, we will be back to the regularly scheduled content soon.

In the meantime have some pixel art!

Felt generous tonight, so here's a little sneak peek for the coming update.

Fine tuning like text alignment etc still upcoming. But the main menu simply works. Looks better. Has keyboard/mouse and controller support. And there's a bunch of new settings to play with!

I can finally work on cool shit again.

Spent the better part of the past week on implementing settings into the game. If you have any feedback / ideas I'm all ears!

Another point of the "must have features for the demo" list has been crossed out. I might have spent all weekend on it, but it simply works now, even when loading the game from a saved state!

Can't believe I just hit 100 followers today! I'm super grateful to all of you who follow and support the creation of Throne of Marrow! 💀

Time to keep the indie dev train chugging along. Choo choo!

Take a breather and enjoy the calm before the storm, something big is on the horizon.
