Like I said, from now on I'll keep some surprises for myself, and I'll just post some screenshots and updates from time to time.
To start, here's a new image for A Man With a Monocle, featuring jthongbai's awesome drawing, now nicely colored.
Now here's a screenshot showcasing some new stuff like ladders, underground passages, springs (to jump higher) and a new enemy type (there's other new ones too but they aren't in the screenshot). Also the main character sprite got slightly improved, I made the colors brighter and cleaned it up a little.
If you look at the HUD you might notice some new stuff as well.
I decided to implement some light RPG elements in the game, see the golden bone in the HUD ?
If you collect every bone in a level, you gain a a golden bone, once you have enough you can use them to get some improvements for the main character like jumping higher, running faster, or increasing your max health (shown by the hearts in the HUD).
The game is progressing nice and smoothly, Johan just finished some really nice tracks for the game and I'm already working on the new worlds, I can't wait to get started with the actual level making with the other guies.
