Element preview

January 15th, 2013 - dek

This is a little preview of one of the new mechanics that come with Deoka. Different kinds of elementals (fire here) can be transported via the bird to activate mechanics, disable traps, etc. Its early in the works but I hope you can tell what is happening.

Little bird Deoka!

January 14th, 2013 - dek

The little bird in the game called Deoka is something I want to implement. You can remote control him to disable traps or other things in remote places that you can not get to by yourself. We will see how this turns out soon :) For now I have been doing his AI, its a very amazing thing to do. Its also the first time I use rotation in my engine, because it allows me to make his movement look much more real. Depending on his speed and flight angle, his sprite will be rotated so it looks like he is actually flying. He will also stop flapping his wings when he has enough speed and just glide through the air.

About Path to the Sky
Path to the Sky is a retro-platformer that combines traditional elements and direct controls with a vibrant and colorful look. Explore the mysterious world in the roles of Akamo and his helper Deoka, two friends that need each other in order to progress through the jumping-puzzle levels.

Current State
Path to the Sky is currently in early development. The core engine is written in C++, allowing me to compile on Windows, Mac and Linux with separate input and render code. My goal is to release the game on these platforms with minimal differences in terms of controls.
If you want to follow the development, check out the following links. I am very active on twitter, so if you want to contact me, please go ahead :)
