Godot3.5 interface displaying a planar graph consisting of a loop of 6 nodes and 1 node sticking outside in the bottom left. The nodes have various sizes and the size is displayed with a circle. Edges are drawn between connected nodes. Two blue curves, on the inside of the loop and around the entire graph, such that they smoothly touch all the circles. On each side of the curve are generated curves displayed in various colors.
swimmy metroidvania level. In the top left, a red enemy in the shape of a diamond with a single eye is hitting the player (in the center) with a flashlight. The player is exiting a body of water hoping to quickly escape the gaze of the enemy. The background is dark, there is a moon visible in the top-right
Swimmy metroidvania level. The player moves up into a hidden area and collects a heart shaped object. The player bounces off the heart and the heart lights up. Afterwards a message is shown: “you obtained a life fragment. Collect 2 more for a life point”
The moon framed above a torch in a swimmy metroidvania level. There is water on the sides of both the torch and the moon. The moon has a slight orange tint.
Preview of my game with water on the bottom and left and a vibrant orange background with round shapes that disappear in the orange fog.
A preview in godot of a particle fire effect consisting of 500 particles shaped like a crescent moon. They form a bright yellow-white ball with the shapes fading out and shrinking as they move up.
Demo of the map in my swimmy metroidvania. Scene starts with the player in a dark area next to a glowing orb. A small part of the area is lit up around the player. The player swims to the orb. Next the map displays with a dark blue background. After zooming on the map, the start of the level is in view with a double yellow circle. After clicking on it and pressing Enter, the map closes and the player quick travels to a pocket of water close to the start of the level. The camera zooms out and the world lights up to represent having moved outside the dark area due to the quick travel.
Metroidvania demo-level map. Background is in black, the outlines of the level are in white. In-bounds the skies are colored purple and the water parts are blue. There is a slight blur effect over the water.
Yellow diamond with hands (player character) leaves the dark and encounters a vine-like gate in a dark green (almost black) color. The middle has a heart like structure with 3 large blobs on it. The HUD on the left displays a vine-like structure with 6 orbs on it, 3 of them are lit up and yellow. Approaching the gate, light orbs appear on the 3 blobs in sequence, after which the bottom of the gate as well as the heart-like structure curls up in a clockwise direction. The top part of the vine snaps off and curls up into a hook like shape.
Yellow player character in a 2d cave system. There are two vines blocking the way from the bottom and top, the two vines are connected by a spiral vine structure that vaguely resembles a heart (rotated by 100 degrees counterclockwise) with three purple orbs on it.
Video of mobile controls in the works. The player first uses the virtual dpad to swim a bit through a cave area. Then jumps out of the water and hits a thing consisting of three triangles pointing inwards that capture the player. The dpad gets replaced by a virtual joystick. Once releasing the touch from the joystick, it turns back into a dpad and the player jumps out of the trap in the direction the player pointed to (top-right).
2d sideview of a colorful metroidvania level. A yellow square shaped character with hands is swimming in water. Four white diamonds making a bigger diamond are located at the bottom left.
Part of a swimmy metroidvania. Edges are made from grass, now on a layered rocky surface (light brown getting darker in 3 stages).
Gameplay of a swimmy metroidvania in development, showing the player following a current, jumping between two odd blobs of water and then bouncing off a jump pad.
Gameplay of the swimmy metroidvania I'm working on. The player moves between bubbles of water that levitate in the air.
Gameplay of the work-in-progress swimmy metroidvania game. Involves the character jumping out of the water like a dolphin, within a cave system.
Godot editor displaying a lot of curved 2D geometry, looking like a cave system. The level starts in the bottom right and ends on the top right, where more design still needs to happen. Places with water have all different colors in the way that Godot displays collision models.
On a purple background is a rounded cross filled with water, generated by my new tool. The yellow player character is located within the blue cross.
A nearly black oval shape with a grass texture surrounding it against a purple background. 3 glowing mushrooms are randomly placed on the edge of the shape, facing outwards.
Godot scene with a spline laying out a 'race track'. The scene properties list a template scene, a toggle to use tesselation, an array of layers, and two toggle to trigger geometry generation and a toggle to automatically adjust the control points.
A swirly random mess of a blue line rendered on top of a level in the godot editor
Grass textures of a looping line object zoomed in on the part where it loops. There is a clearly visible seam.
The yellow player character is in a dark environment, with light only closely surrounding the player. A few yellow spots indicate a presence of life, but what else is hiding in The Depths?
