Niko Posted October 27, 2015 Author Share Posted October 27, 2015 Dim is the RPG-Platformer I am currently working on in construct 2\. Dim will take you on a black horror adventure through all of the scary old folklore/tales you may or may not have read up on. The game will feature much more dark scenery and decorations than what I have created thus far. The picture is just a mock-up to give you a sort of preview of whats to come. None of the current graphics are final, everything is subject to change. My plan is to eventually have this designed for mobile but as of currently, it will only be developed for PC/Mac. I would also like to add this to steam when it is completed. If you are experienced in construct 2, want to help develop DIM and are willing to profit share than please contact me via PM or Email: **[email protected]****Also: Just Created a face book page http://www.facebook.com/dimhorrortalesAnd a website: http://www.dimhorrortales.comLike the FB Page and check out the website for an updated Dev Blog!****Main Menu Built In Construct 2****The Game In Action!****Completed Features:**-Choose Your Characters Name-Player Animations and Movement-Save and Load Games-Scary Background Music-Jump, Double Jump, Physics/Gravity, Climb Walls-Sliding/Moving Platforms-Jump Attack Enemy's-Gain Experience Points and Level Up Your Character-As You Level Up Your Overall Health Expands-Receive Damage By Enemy's-Working Health Bar, Loose Health When Attacked-Health Auto Rejuvenates Over Time**Features To Come:**-Smart Enemy AI-Projectiles-Items and Inventory-Storyboard Styled Quests-Npc Characters To Meet-Dialogue System-Smart Quest Bosses-More Terrain and Interior Scenery/Levels**Quest 1- The Black Dog Of Hanging Hills**Your first quest begins when you pass through the hanging hills. The scenery here is quite dreadful, Hundreds of body's hanging from trees. Blood and worms and swarms of flies. I'm not so sure why anyone would even pass by here… But you did... Start your quest by speaking with a local of the hills. He will give you a bit of history on the hanging hills and send you on your way to observe the area. As your walking through here You notice a small black dog following you through the area. If you search the crates nearby you will find a piece of cooked meat. give this to the dog and he will go away. If you go back to the local and tell him about the black dog you saw, the man will start to panic and get upset. You ask him what all the worry was about, after all it was just a cute stray right? The man tells you about the legend of the black dog on hanging hills. He said "If you see the dog once it shall be for joy; and if twice, it shall be for sorrow; and the third time, You shall die.’” He laughed. “That’s just superstition.” You tell the man you don't believe in superstitions and move along. Wandering through the hills you see the dog again only this time he has an evil stare and hardened blood on his coat. You pay no mind and convince your self this is a mere coincident. When you arrive back at the main area of the hills something is different.. The local you have been talking to has vanished. This cannot be good. You start moving around looking for him but nothing, until you stumble across a trail of blood that is. You follow the trail which of course leads you to the locals dead corpse. When you examine the body you notice teeth and claw marks all over. Your only option is to head back t the hills no and guess what? This will be your third time you've seen the black dog. Fight time! Will you see death like the legend says? Or will your reign victorious?**Quest 2- The Jersey Devil**Your Second quest will begin when you talk to a Lost soul. He seems restless so you ask him if he needs any help. He replies with "I just died last week but for some reason am still here…" You tell him maybe there is something he still needs to do before he can move on from this plane. He says "Well actually, my dearest wife Daisy is pregnant and I need to know that our baby is okay. Will you make sure my baby is delivered healthy?" You tell the soul you will help him and venture off to find daisy. When you do find daisy in her shack she will be surrounded by women trying to help deliver the baby. You tell her about her husbands soul and daisy requests that you deliver the baby for her. Blood is squirting everywhere in the house but you manage to deliver the baby safe and sound. Daisy thanks you for your good deed and rewards you with a bit of gold. As soon as you are about to leave the house the door locks and you are trapped. Dark horror music begins to play and the room erupted with screams. The new born child grew at an enormous rate, becoming taller than a man and changing into a beast which resembled a dragon, with a head like a horse, a snake-like body and bat's wings. You must defeat the jersey devil to fully complete the quest.**Quests To Come:**-A Cows Head-The Death Coach-Ghosts of Ringwood Manor-Jack and the Devil-Lady in Lace-Phantom Drummer-Ogopogo, the Lake Monster-Feel free to add any suggestions, like features or certain scary folklore that you may know of!

Joyce Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 Sounds interesting! The perspective on the building is really off though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coffeeraptor Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 Agree with Joyce on the roof's perspective, but other than that I actually like the style this is done in. Nice work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeNjO Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 Looks awesome. Not to echo others but the roof on the building really made me "wtf?" but other than that looks like a fun game I would play. Keep up the good work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niko Posted October 27, 2015 Author Share Posted October 27, 2015 Thanks everyone! Yes haha some of the graphics are unfinished or simply place holders. The roof was from a top down RPG I was making prior so I sort of just used it for the mean time. Everything will get adjusted and perfected over time.**Edit: I have adjusted the roof tops to be in the correct perspective. It was bugging a lot of people from multiple forums so I decided to adjust it. What do you guys think?** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zetasis Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 Looks good. Roof looks better also. I'm looking forward to playing this game some day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mohenjo Daro Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 Some more of the graphics clash, as in, the RIP tombstones don't have a top and should, and the other has a side and shouldn't and it also lacks a top, other than that, the game seems like a solid idea, can't say I've seen the likes of it before.

Niko Posted October 29, 2015 Author Share Posted October 29, 2015 Here is a new graphical update, house variants made, color variants of the leafy trees and a new leafless tree was added to the game. I figured these new leafless trees would fit the style better so I got rid of the small ones all together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niko Posted October 29, 2015 Author Share Posted October 29, 2015 Thanks for the positive support guys! I might have to find another means than Construct2 to build this game. I haven't even begun adding in the complicated features of the game and im getting lag. Its very sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GalacticGlum Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 I mean if you have experience in C# Unity is great and too learn how to use Unity itself isn't all quite difficult I'd search up a 2D Unity tutorial that should teach you a lot!

or3o Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 You should make the game a story book, and have the quests split into chapters, i think that could be really interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
