Archie the vampire game progress devlog

Finally polished the most important part of the game - the whole movement and action mechanics and working menu. AND the game finally has a title "Oh No! Demons stole my Panties!" - I think it sounds unique and silly enough! (the other two screenshots are kind of rough - these are by no means final sprites - there will be more cool stuff later)

I will let my patrons play the Prototype soon! You will be the first person to test the game (after playing, please write feedback and criticism, it will be very helpful).

I also added a lot of cool effects and sounds so the game feels much more crispy and fun to look at.
What is left:

Finish sprites of enemies (and polish Archie's jumpin and dashing sprite)
Add other game elements that will slide nicely on top of polished main mechanics
Finish the main menu (+ instead of options and continue there will be Treasury (where you can watch/read character bios and other stuff) and About/options)
Finish (probably 5.5) levels.
Finish lore/story screens (that tell the story about Demons stealing Sir Archie's panties right at the moment when he heeded them for a vip party set up by Lord of Vampires)
Finish promo images (i hope to release the game on itch io and then on Steam with more levels and stuff (like additional game modes)
(i will PROBABLY need a voice actor to voice one line for me - for the game trailer...)

I can't wait to release my actually first finished game.
Doing that with a first shorter game i will learn a lot about gamedev and releasing video games, and will be ready for my most important titles like Steel Frost.
