Thanks!

Thank you! that definitely helps

I have been thinking of making a Quest for Glory-Esque Point & Click Adventure/RPG with turn-based combat. I want to include companion characters that would fight alongside you. In the party menu and during combat, you and the companion characters would be represented by portraits akin to old-school RPG games. An example is shown below.



I made this for practice.



Does anyone have any comments on what I can do to improve the look of this? I am pretty set on wanting the front-facing angle, but I want to know how to make this portrait look better.

Thank you

There is a magic cloak found in the desert that you need to wear

I just went through and fixed some typos and bugs that I didn't catch before. The updated release is published to the Gamejolt site!

Thanks ToeKnee! It definitely feels great to have it finally finished.

Shadow1000 Thanks so much for your feedback! I’m so glad you enjoyed the game

[Slay the Dragon III]

I am proud to announce that after working on and off this game since 2018, it is finally complete.

I present to you...

Slay the Dragon III

What was once a realm at peace is now under the threat of three terrifying dragons. As king, you must embark on an adventure to save your kingdom from these foul beasts.

I began working on this game in 2018 but took long gaps in production either from being busy or losing interest. However, now that it is done I am happy to share it with you. I've gone through the game pretty rigorously to catch any bugs or typos, but I am just one person. If you catch anything, let me know so I can fix it!

Converting the files to OGG seems to be working, thanks for the responses!

I loved Metaphobia so I have no doubt that this game will be great

I am having an issue with adding sound effects to my game. I have audio files in the sound effects folder that play in the little audio preview but when I call the audio to play in-game nothing happens. This happens with several of my files, yet some play just fine. There is music in the background, but I have it at a lower audio priority and a lower volume. Is there something wrong with the files themselves?

Quick update! The game can now be fully played from start to finished. I am now going back and adding in audio and extra look and interact descriptions for extra detail. I don’t know how long this process will take because I have finals coming up, but the game will definitely be released in June!

You need to put something in the oven to distract Aro

Maybe you can fill the empty bottle with something gross and put it in the oven

Thanks! CaptainD

Will you have what it takes to slay the beastly fire dragon?

Here's my entry:

Imagine that an archeologist or a pirate finally uncovers the secret cavern containing what they've been seeking.

The three main areas of the game are basically complete (besides adding in extra look/interact descriptions)

All that's left now is to make the end sequence, finish up all of the dragon fights, and add sound!

@Hobo Great to see your interest! This game is much larger than the other ones. I planned out the entire game back when I first started working on it. The game has three main sections that are all about as long as Slay the Dragon II. The pictures I just posted are from a smaller section of the game that you need to complete before moving onto one of the big sections. I am now working on coding the last main area of the game, so I am pretty close to being complete. This game will also feature actually fights with the dragons, instead of the last two where you needed to solve a simple puzzle to defeat the dragon.

@Durq Thank you!

If you thought dragons were the only creatures inhabiting the world... you'd be wrong
