This map is so mindblowing! I'm using parts as inspiration for level design

Perhaps handy for other 2D devs!
hallownest.net

All gameplay features are done and now creating the world itself!

I really love the dark front layers, still a super long way to go but it's getting better and better!

Btw, this is the "road" that lead up to the main city im gonna call..

Polaris

Kinda like a underground star-point ish

@stux My favorite game of all time. Hollow Knight!

@thestrangelet I haven't played it myself :catblush:

but the videos and screenshots really get me!

I just downloaded this somewhere today, unfort it's Unity but there's png's!

Pretty sure it's copyrighted but still awesomee

@stux Reminds me the map from Ori. Both of them had a really good map design.

@xobb Got that as a inspiration also for some aspects! Is there also a full map?

@xobb I have a public iOS beta here: testflight.apple.com/join/699D

Android still throws me errors :catblush: but ill fix that also

testflight.apple.comJoin the Darkness Inside betaAvailable on iOS

@stux will try it out, but I was under impression that it will be available on the Xbox or other platforms as well. I don't play any games on the phone.

@xobb I will also publish for desktop and maaaaybe console

No clue yet on that but ill figure it out :blobcatgiggle:

@stux Okay, I loved the game on the phone, but my screen is too small and the fingers are too fat. Paying it forward for Xbox version ;)

@xobb :blobcatgiggle: controllers also work for that 😇 but i totally get it :cat_hug_triangle:

its on the list

@stux happy to keep pushing story elements into your levels - if you have a map / something with locations that need text I can start to fill those in if you like. It’s looking great btw (on iPhone 13 max). I did find a bug where I jumped off the ledge near the castle and fell for infinity 😝

@Cacotopos yess please :cat_hug_triangle: the HUB map is for dev 😉

it was to quickly navigate between levels and such but ive removed it in the last build! I do need dialogue for the story for the NPCs that are currently in-game

Also perhaps an intro "cutscene", think im gonna keep it simple with text fading telling a quick few lines perhaps..

@stux yeah for sure. Well I’ll add stuff to the Google doc and you can copy paste and change what you like. I’m back in Australia so my keyboard is Engels again 😝

@Cacotopos Awesomeee ❤️ thank you!

Currently the NPCs can have 3 lines of dialogue boxes but i can add more i guess 😉

@Cacotopos This way NPCs can also be portals or dungeon entrances for example by opening a dungeon map or whatever 💪

@stux yeah nice so like keys effectively. I’ll use the map link to guide my text placement stuff and PM you with any questions

@stux oh whoops that’s Hollow Knight map 😜

@Cacotopos Oh maybe also handy!

Throught the game, the player can collect gems or diamonds or whatever to perm increase stats, these can be collected once

This is aside from the souls collection and skills (missles 1 & 3 and double jump)

@stux Can.... can we have that on Switch mayhaps? Or something with a controller? :)

@phoenixgee it does support controllers 😉 o mobile/desktop

i guess i can maybe also publish for Switch! I am planning to use my avail Steam slot for this game

@stux This looks great. Love the dark atmosphere of it all.

@stux

I started playing this a few weeks ago. I thought I was getting pretty far until I saw this map...

@stux
One of my favourite games! Too bad the sequel seems to be stuck in development.
