Demo Day 64 is here. I'm sharing an early development preview of MARRAS. The demo link is in the first reply to this post. It may have bugs and incomplete features and could change. I'd appreciate your feedback to help improve it. Please spread the word!

I'm back from a brief hiatus from Marras development. I'm currently working on Arcade Mode systems. In Marras, stages will be synchronized with the background music to deliver a seamless, immersive experience.

MESSAGE FROM MARRAS
#stg #shmup
Since the last post, I have been creating some enemy bullet patterns. Most of my time has gone to optimizing GPU bottlenecks in the game. This weekend, I will create new bullet patterns and work on Stage 1 bosses.
#スーパーゲ制デー #marras #stg
Since the last time, I have added collectible items and a couple of new enemies to the game. I have also done non-boss areas for the first stage of campaign mode. Next, I will focus on boss logic in code alongside the implementation of enemy bullet patterns.

I have been extremely busy with my day job, so game development hours have been sparse. The video below shows an early look at the first stage mid-boss. Thank you also for your interest in Marras. It inspires and drives me.

The first version of ground explosion craters was added to the game. The next steps are adding one more ground enemy, a mid-boss, and the main-stage boss. This was a very productive Monday evening for me. Have a wonderful week, everyone!

Implemented a simple shadow system for game entities. It scales better in this project than the approach with more realistic results. William Faulkner's wise words, “In writing, you must kill all your darlings“apply in game development too.
Work In Progress of gunship with banking animations. In the background, you can hear a small teaser of the stage 1 BGM theme. Who might be the composer for the MARRAS project?

This week, MARRAS development included refactoring and fixing visual bugs. In addition, a player death animation was created and added to the game. The death animation is still a work in progress.

This week, I created custom input mapping support and other menu features. Because menu features are not flashy or interesting, please check out this flashy vortex/wormhole. The mystery is where it will take us?

Thank you very much! I’m glad that I can bring small moments of joy in your day.

Hi! I’d love to be added, thanks!
I've been working on menus, scene managers, save systems, and user configurations for the last couple of weeks. I find menu development especially challenging. The menu in the video is still a work in progress.
#STG #Marras #Shmup
This week, I worked on scene transitions and player transition animations. I'll continue with these tasks this weekend, and hopefully, next week, I'll move on to writing the scene manager. Have a good weekend, everyone!

I've just launched my game development blog on oksi.games/blog. The first post sets the tone for what's to come. Next Post: I'm aiming to publish the second post about the MARRAS development status and next steps later this week.
This week I have worked on adding more enemies to the game. I have also done new stage background concepts. Here's a rough video of the things mentioned. I hope you like it.

I’d love to release for consoles, but can’t promise anything. The technical competence won’t be issue. Time and costs however will. Most likely the game will be available on steam first and then maybe on consoles later on. Thank you very much for being interested of the game!
This week, I was busy with Christmas preparations. Regarding the game, I fixed a few bugs. I also started to write a stage/level manager and adjusted player damage and enemy health. values.
Presenting one of the Marras's co-pilots. If you choose to pilot D-4 KAIHO, she will take the second seat and assist you in your mission. You might find her in this picture with an iconic pose. It could be a hint about her personality.
The bug has died. May them rest in peace.
There's one frame flickers happening with the lock-on target crosshair. Very subtle and I bsky seems to dropped at least some of the frames which the issue was visible.
You actually can't due bsky turns the video to porridge, but don't worry. The bug will be fixed nevertheless.
