This was honestly the most fun making an org I've ever had. Just look at this beautiful reference material hot damn

 

playthrough in the spoiler

Spoiler

alright let's do this
-----
there is no intro
gg

the version numbers look out of place compared to everything else

why is he on the ground

should be "Ugh... what happened?"
or more preferably
"Ugh ... what happened?"

the 1 for the EXP bar is still there, and it would look weird without everything anyway

well at least you're honest about it
not sure why my house is in a cave but i digress

nice slope nerd

no enemies
no water
spooky

hello smoothness my only friend

there was no ITEM GET sound before the music

there it is

also the Dust shot uses five missiles
nice

also i just noticed that the protagonist is a quote recolour
gg
nice pants loser

second cave
oh

got the snake!
for no reason
also

bad slope

no EXP droppage
interesting

-----

neat

edit: also i didn't hear duncathan's ORG
which is
dissatisfying
edit2: i just saw the new mechanic
nice

 

there is a very good reason to get the snake, that being that this is a tech demo
try shooting with it and you might see the reason

 

Also, the title screen has Dunc's ORG. Also, the weapons won't play a sound when you get them, until I get a new one. The sprite is also going to change once I get on my windows X.P.
Oh, and say goodbye to leveling up!
Wait, were you playing without sound?
Because I accidentally put in the item get sound, which is weird.

 

You could have told me to remove the XP bar completely instead of just erasing the images because that looks unprofessional
Anyway, nice work on the demo
Don't forget to give player more dust (maybe?) and add an info about the dust consumption in each weapon's description

 

I will, thanks for the input.
Also, the ammo is just ammo now, and would you know where the calls to spawn the exp crystal is, and how to make it do nothing?

 

so i wanted to say a few words about it, so heres my playthrough

Spoiler

-wow the music is awesome

-so health refillers have to do with dust weapons?

-hey its the first cave... but green...

-what makes this rocket launcer "dust"?

-dust refilled? is it like ammo?

-the snake is so cool, i never got it because i wanted the spur

-realy cool game, i look forward to more!

 

The dust thing will be ammo in the next update, so yeah.

 

ok so like
cool concept
level 1 weapons
weapons share ammo
cool
so like
if you need help with graphics and such
maybe level design
ask
and i will help

 

Thanks, I'll be sure to only ask if I really need it.
Dust Alpha 0.0.2 is now out!

 

Alright
First off
Wow, you've improved since Before Story

Second
I noticed some things

1. "Your Fist" is a Polar Star, is there a reason for this?
2. The bosses come in above ground, erm..
3. I'm pretty sure "arn't" is aren't.
4. I beat the bosses, but one was left?

 

I haven't played it yet, but it does sound interesting. I'll do a (video) play through when I get around to playing it.

1. It's so if you run out of ammo, you can still fight to get the ammo drops.
2.I'll fix that.
3. I have no spelling skills... I'll fix it.
$. What do you mean by that?

 

I did the play through:

I thought it was pretty good. 10/10 -IGN "Would play again."

 

You arn't supposed to post gameplays here if you are 2stupid2useguns. /s

One tip for you, Bionic: make the fist less OP and the guns more OP.
Or just give a buff to the guns because they still suck.

 

so i played the 0.0.2

Spoiler

the intro still says 0.0.0.1
dust weapons are now called ranged?
door that teleport to the same screen, check
no health from the heal thingys? unless you place beds, this'll make the game realy hard.
the dust system is cool, all weapons share ammo, and more poverful weapons cost more ammo all pretty good
execp for boss fights, when you run out of ammo the fight is realy boring and painful
no xp?
in the first room it says you could break the lock with the rocket launcher but you can walk right out without shooting the door

ps. it that your real mii?

 

No, it's the derp version. I make them for my friends.
Here's the comparison:

Spoiler

So you have no eyes and you swallowed a mirrored 7 and your mouth looks exactly like that.

 

Exactly.
Wait until I can add the Mii crown, then I shall be complete.

So, I have a problem. My computer's color is messed up, so I can't make the face picture for the main character, Randy.
I already drew it, so I was hoping that someone could make it in digital format. Read the description of the picture for more info.
