Development wise, We have prompts integrated for stage starts and "ring outs" , but we're behind schedule while pathing logic is figured out, this allows you to pick stages you prefer along a path, and then play the ones you didn't afterwards as a second loop.

Apologies for lack of updates. I've been trying to find a new gamedev job, as I've been unemployed for almost 6 months.

I've been working on packaging solutions and final promo stuff in between.

Been looking for a job primarily. Lots of leads and dancing around, but no signed contract yet. Western industry is a slaughterhouse ATM, so looks like I'll be at a JP company again..

Noticed a lot of NES Kickstarters like Storied Sword use live-action inserts to tell a story . Since Banana Bash stars cartoon animals and I only have myself to rely on, that’s tricky! But after months of head-scratching, I think I finally came up with a solution. Hope it’s fun!

We've been super busy on our big push over the Japanese Golden week holiday! Programming is continuing at a fantastic pace and I've been heads down in After Effects working on bits for the final Kickstarter video!

I have more than a prediliction towards super obscure italo synth disco, And I realised I hadn't shared this mid 80's home computer paranoia gem from the band PAGE 2..

We have a tiny bit more polish to add to the demo, fixing some long-term visual bugs that have been present for a while, but we're super close!

I just saw the trailer, the whole “sequels to episodes” or at least reintroducing characters from previous episodes raised collective groans..

No werewolves or other bollocks this time, for gods sake..

The Creatures - Space Fly [ITALO-DISCO] [1986]
YouTube video by SilStar 80`s,90`s Rarities Music The Creatures - Space Fly [ITALO-DISCO] [1986]

Is it just me or does the intro from this track from Italo Disco legends The Creatures sound VERY close to GC Metroid Prime's music?
