The trailer also showcases the special skill that was added recently, Teleport Attack.



[h2]Release date[/h2]

The release date of the game is now decided, April 3.

Get ready to explore the basement!

The development of the game has advanced and the game is now about 80% finished.


[h3]New enemy type[/h3]

There is a new type of enemy. It's a tree? It moves like the knight in chess.




[h3]50 hand-designed levels finished[/h3]

Now there are 50 hand-designed levels in total. I don't plan to add any more before release, so now I'm focusing mostly on the randomly generated levels.


[h3]New cutscene images made and story finished[/h3]

The story is now complete. I made many pixel art images for the cutscenes. Here is a small part of a cutscene image:



What is the penguin destroying? You would have to play the game to find out. :)


[h3]Improved random generation of levels[/h3]

The randomly generated levels are now more interesting. I also fixed many bugs related to them.




That's all for now. If everything goes well, the game will be released in winter or spring 2024. If you haven't already, consider adding the game to your wishlist to get notified when it's available.

I will be live streaming the demo of Strategy game but with a penguin who has a sword during Steam Next Fest.

After publishing the Steam page and trailer of the game, there have been many improvements in the game. I decided it's time to tell more about these and also about some other planned features.

[h2]Visual improvements[/h2]

More animations have been added, like an attack animation.
And now the default sword actually looks like a Teleporter Sword.



Some other effects and animations have been added too, like water splashing when walking on water.

[h2]Shop and inventory[/h2]

Finally I was able to implement the inventory system.

From the shop you can buy and equip swords and other equipment. You can also change the color of the penguin.



The equipment you get from the store will not only improve your stats, but also it will change the clothes/sword the penguin has. Unfortunately, I will not be able to implement the stats system in time for the demo (coming soon). The demo will also only have a very small equipment selection. But I'm working on it.

[h2]Story[/h2]

This game was supposed to have a very simple story, but it ended up being pretty deep. The ending I'm currently writing is quite interesting, at least in my opinion. But I will have to ask the opinion of testers before I can say for sure (^_^;)



There are some cutscenes like in the image here. Aside from these, you can find paper notes that your father wrote in the basement floors. They slowly reveal more about the story.

[h2]Demo[/h2]

A demo of the game will be available during the next Steam Next Fest. It will probably have 30 hand-designed levels to show how the game is played.

If you have any feature requests or questions about the game, feel free to comment~. And if the game seems interesting, maybe add it to your wishlist?
