Homebrew Back From Ashes WIP (DS Entry)

[tombot]

Hi,

I've been working on a sequel to my first homebrew game I made: The Fifteenth Floor (available on filetrip). It was quite ugly, but I'm hoping I can take what I've learned to make the next game great. The sequel is named "Back From Ashes"; more of this project is getting done quickly.

This is by no means a technical marvel, but for fans of Hotel Dusk, 999, and other interactive novel-type deals, this might be a nice distraction.
Playing The Fifteenth Floor is not required to enjoy the game, but it helps.

-Change your view of the rooms by on the D-pad.

-Examine objects by tapping them.

-To use an item you picked up, touch it once to select it, then touch what you want to use it with.

-To combine two items in your inventory or use them together, highlight the item and then press the green arrow icon.



Update 4/10/11 - Beginning of Chapter 2

Looks...

Amazing.

That's some damn good graphics. And I'm sure the gameplay would be quite nice too.

Can i ask, of all your games, whitch ones are completed?

All of my games that I have set out to make have been completed. My first one being "The Fifteenth Floor" was my earliest project and was finished December of 2009. It's available here.

My next one was a horror-adventure/room escape game called Cell. It was released in July of 2010. It's available over here.

All games are done in the same "style", (A little similar to 2010's 9 Hours 9 Persons 9 Doors) although the games were created before that release.

Back From Ashes was originally started at the beginning of 2011, but had not seen a release past an initial demo until yesterday (4/10/11). Frequent additional updates will be made, ensuring eligibility if the previous update is not considered "significant". Chapter 2 will also be completed by deadline.

Hope that helps with any questions!
