Project hoplings: reborn! (public demo v1)

oh no! the storybook that the hoplings originally lived in was torn apart, and the pages were spread across a new land! follow ryan as he runs, jumps, sprints and ground pounds his way through this new world, collecting any pages he can find!

changelog:

  • ENEMIES! there’s only one type; the slugslime, but ENEMIES!
  • updated HUD.
  • a new gimmick, and with it comes a new level.
pulse orbs

the pulse orbs are blue and orange orbs with upward facing arrows on them. these pulse orbs are activated by pressing jump on top of them, or holding jump and running into them. the orange ones are twice as powerful as the blue ones, but their cooldown is twice as long.

  • pages don’t give points anymore, but there’s a counter in the HUD that displays how many out of three you’ve collected.

(KEEP IN MIND: this is just a demo, everything you see is most likely subject to change.)

made one small but noticeable change; ryan’s life counter now reacts to him doing things like getting hurt or getting a page. small change, but it makes a difference and adds just a bit more personality to ryan himself.

@Brainstorm_studios I think you’ve got the best sounds effects of any arcade game i’ve played! Excellent use of the music editor

well, you know how there are those overhanging tiles at the end of the platforms? well, i made it so there’s an invisible sprite that spawns on top of each of them that turns the slugslimes around if they overlap it. i tried using one of the other methods i saw but that didn’t work, so i improvised and it worked flawlessly!

quick mini update, the ground pound has its own animation now, as opposed to just the jump and fall animations.

The game uses mobile controls which doesn’t work that well with my mouse.

Welcome to any British park lol
