Ghost Visor Resumption

2009-09-26T11:54:00.003-05:00

After a long time, I have finally begun to work on Ghost Visor again. I'm sorry to say that I was NOT working on it during the summer. However, work has resumed on it again, and the deadline is now on November 10th.

Minor Randomness.

New Website

2009-05-01T12:51:00.002-05:00

Well, I have made myself a new website for Ghost Visor, and the link is located to the right in the "Pages You Should Visit" section. All updates are going to take place there now, but BDT5W will still update you on the other games here. Thanks!

Spoilers #2

He will find the earth... but who is he?

Find out when Ghost Visor comes out!

GV Sprites made!

2009-04-29T13:10:00.002-05:00

You remember the old look for Visor2, right? Well, he recently got upgraded....

That's right, people. visor 2 now looks less like a mutant camel and more like a human. (hooray!) Soon, there will be new promo art coming up, so stay tuned!

Weekly Announcement: Week 4/27

2009-04-27T08:24:00.002-05:00

Ghost Visor is doing swimmingly...upgraded sprites for the main character, Visor2, are getting done. They look rather good, I must say so myself. Nothing really else, other than the fact that I may actually sell the game instead of giving it as freeware. However, it would be rather cheap, and i would be willing to mail it long-distance. However, you would also pay for shipping costs. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Maps Are Done!

2009-04-24T12:35:00.002-05:00

The maps for Ghost Visor are done now. Soon, the game will enter full foward development!!! Note: I have decided not to work on EverTown, but instead an old project labeled "CoRE LoGIC." Development on that game has already begun previously, but it never took off. i will try to bring it up again, and work will begin right after Ghost Visor's Completion.

Weekly Announcement: Week 4/20

2009-04-20T09:42:00.002-05:00

Hello. I am here to announce that Ghost Visor is nearing completion of Level Progrmming. This basically means that almost all the levels have been designed and accounted for. Also, my next project, EverTown, is beginning to take shape. I cannot disclose any information on EverTown, other than the fact that it is a unique real-time RPG strategy game. I can also Offer the fact that it does not resemble Final Fantasy Tactics. Finally, I can announce that Enemies for ghost visor are taking form.

That is all of this Weekly announcement. Thanks for reading!

MAP SPOILS!!!!!

2009-04-16T13:08:00.003-05:00

OK, HUGE spoil. basically a map of the first few levels. lookie!

This is going to be the basic layout for the first few worlds. pretty simple, but there is more here than meets the eye....

Rant of my outsanity

2009-04-16T12:39:00.003-05:00

I feel like posting something today!!!!! This is simply me posting because I am bored. unless you are one of those lily-livered people who live on other people's drama, then you dont actually have to read this.

I have a cold. Colds suck. Just a second ago, I was coughing my brains out. Ok, not really. That would be gross. But i did cough.

Anyways, GV is going fine. My maps are being edited. In fact, I might post a little spoiler of what the first few rooms look like later. But if i spoil too much, I might as well give you a walkthrough.

I am currently saving up for a DSi. (I mean, That thing is awesome.) I am rather impressed by the sound editing software that is set up in the DSi. i might use that to create SFX for Ghost Visor. (Sweet!)

TO ALL PEOPLE WHO WANT TO MAKE GAMES:

GET A DSi!!! It is the first game console that can help you make games!!!

Current amount of money set up for DSi: $80. Since i am going to use gamestop's special deal on the DSi where you can get $50 off by trading in you old DS, I technically only need $40-$50 more dollars. Sweet. I would do the $70 Dollar off trade in, if i didnt have to give my old DSlite to my younger Bro.

Stay tuned for more GV stuff and other possible projects.

This Is the Demo For GHOST VISOR! (actual title, including the Exclamation mark.) note, this is only the demo, and it is still under development. the full game will be much different than this, and when i have finished the main game, this will be converted to the tutorial for the full version. please enjoy!!!

Moar Spoils!

2009-04-15T08:36:00.000-05:00

Muahaha. Ok, enough silliness. I am going to give you all a major spoiler. However, this is a pending spoiler. meaning, this may not come to be. on this newer version of the map, there are a few new symbols apparent. the first one is a single 1 placed in one of the boxes. the second is a purple dot in the corner of some boxes. and last, the colors on the side have a name next to them. whatever could this mean......?

Spoils!

2009-04-14T13:04:00.000-05:00

Yes, Spoils! This is the map for the game, at least, simplified. The several areas are shown, not telling what each one is, and there is no telling where you start. All that is shown is a symbol representing a "B". I wonder what that is...?

Ghost Visor Status.

2009-04-14T08:21:00.000-05:00

GV is doing ok......I suppose. So far, I've been working on room mapping and development, as well as redesigning the character sprites. Also, I'm gonna add JUMPING!!!!! (Hooray!) and many other new features.........I'm beginning to think that I'm leaving the main idea of the "Ghost" Ability.......which isn't good. Also, I counted my room amount. It's over 150!!! Goodness..... I'm gonna be working for a while on this.

Well, that's all for now. Please stay updated and visit often!

Adorios a.k.a. Ilias.

Yup, my name's Ilias now. I kinda like it. not telling you if it's my real name or not. :)

Breaking Down The 5th Wall - Beginning Now

2009-04-03T12:08:00.000-05:00

Hello. My name is Adorios The Metalloid Assassin. Ok, that's not my real name. However, it's my basic name that I use the most for the webernet, and some of you might recognize it from a story called Samus Aran And The War Of Eternity. But, that is not the topic at hand. I am here to say hello to all of you, and I am announcing a project called Breaking Down The Fifth Wall. In BDT5W, the goal is to make a set of amazing video games that are different from any other. If you are wondering what this "5th wall" is, then I might have to explain something.

Ever watch a sitcom or a play? Did that play have a room that was open on the side facing the audience? Well, that's called breaking down the 4th wall. The 4th wall is the wall that is the fourth in a room, any wall will do. But when you break down that wall, you can see every aspect of these people's lives through that wall, and they have no idea that you are watching (at least, they pretend they dont).

To break down the fifth wall is to break down the wall that keeps you from becoming one with that life you are watching, whether it's an adventure or a comedy or a tradegy or anything like that. In fact, the fifth wall isnt even a wall at all. It's that part of imagination that keeps you from imagining with the story. It keeps you from becoming a part of it all. Even books cant break down this wall. Only amazing and unique games can, whether top-down or sidescroller or FPS or a puzzle game.

I want to break down that fifth wall. And I will do it by reaching you all.

The current game on the list for BDT5W is:

Ghost Visor. Check out the demo at YoyoGames. Simply search under "Adorios" and you will find it.
