Hello all!
glad to become a member of the community.
been working on a few google play free-to-play games, and just recently moved my focus to Ouya.
I grew up back in what i consider the good ol' days, and have fond memories of many hours spent in both arcades as well as gaming on the first generation of consoles like atari and colecovision etc.
Since i am sure a fan of adventure games, i decided to build a game in the style of the old Venture game, by Exidy. The premise is you are traversing a demonic tower, and you tackle one floor at a time.
Each floor, will be a single screen, where you have to kill all the monsters and over come the traps, to reveal the treasure for the floor. once you secure the treasure, you move on to the next floor.
currently there are 256+ levels planed, and the progressively get more challenging the higher you go. The game will also include some warp zones once milestone floors have been reached. A simple image is below, displaying the player avatar (shield and sword) some spinning blade enemies, and a treasure, as well as an electrified bolt trap. The traps, monsters, and room layouts will vary floor by floor as you progress to the top of the tower and the final battle.
This game is early in development, and level design and additional mechanics are still being worked out so things may change as development and play testing continues.
