So, this exploration game has been in development for several weeks now, and I have to thank everyone who downloaded, and the few who bothered to actually give feedback for trying my game. This new update has taken me quite a while, and I certainly hope it's well received. Additionally, I genuinely hope someone will actually decide to help with graphics, because I am in desperate need of this kind of help.

Thank you all who have given their support.

Time for a break.

Anyway, for those interested, the latest version can be found here:
DOWNLOAD

It's an early beta of what will eventually be a Metroidvania. So far I have four bosses, several enemies, and the engine is nearly done, I just need more bosses, enemies, and upgrades. The major things left is graphics, something I really need help with.

New:
Two new areas, a couple upgrades, the ability to have up to 3 save files, and tilesets for the first area, although it's not particularly good. It's better than black boxes, though. I cut down player speed a bit, so hopefully control will be better. I also got rid of the first double jump upgrade, you start with double jump already higher.

I think that's all.

Specific Questions:
Is there anyway I can improve?
What would you like to see?

If you happen to be interested in helping with aesthetics(graphics, music, sound), that would be fantastic. I suck at those.

Too lazy right now. besides, as stated, I need help with graphics. virtually all of it is placeholders. It's basically pure engine right now.

In other news, I'd love graphical help.

While I'm at it, searchlighted.

There is never a good excuse not to post screenshots.
Seriously, they're really important. Unless someone is excited to download your game, they probably won't give it a second thought. You always need to motivate people to play it or you're wasting your time. ФֻФ

Thinking it's likely to make people not want to play the game isn't a good excuse?

The game is fun, but it's not very nice looking as of yet. and by not nice looking, I mean the player controls a box.

Although I have someone making me a tile set for one of the area tonight, so we'll see.

It's not laziness, it's the fact that the game is ugly as hell right now. I was gonna take pictures when and only when I actually have good sprites. I hacked together a tile set for the first area though, so that could be out later tonight.

I already took some screen shots, but I don't have time to upload them just yet. they're on my laptop that does not have internet, I still need to transfer them.
