  So where things are with this project currently is... I think to tell the story I want, with the impact I want it to have, I have to first make another game to set up the story. Should also be good pr... Continue reading
• I'll probably change directions a bit when I get back to this
  October 17, 2021 by Happy Frog Games

  Been a bit since I last worked on this, huh...? Well, I've had a lot of time to think. And I think I can do a lot of what I wanted to do with this project better justice if I ignore my original plans,... Continue reading

• New plans for how the Mirogox will work (caution: arguably contains spoilers!)
  January 25, 2021 by Happy Frog Games

  So for Mirogox: Mission Crash, with the game being an attempt at a spiritual successor of sorts to Metroid 2, well, it wouldn't be a successor to Metroid 2 without some bosses to face, would it? Previ... Continue reading
• Flare and fuel added to the game
  January 24, 2021 by Happy Frog Games

  Though it doesn't do much yet, the flare has been added to the game. The flare will be a OHKO on most normal enemies and your only way of hurting most bosses. More importantly though, fuel has been ad... Continue reading
• Hiatus is over, new version released
  January 24, 2021 by Happy Frog Games

  A new version has been uploaded. It adds a new move, the Drill Dash. I don't have much more to say, the hiatus is over, but development may still not be very fast. I have projects other than just this... Continue reading
• Gonna take a hiatus, need to make something a bit different for a little bit
  November 05, 2020 by Happy Frog Games

  So I've decided it is for the best for me to take a hiatus. I have a concept for a small game that I want to make, which I think will be a good way to get me back into the swing of things. It's not go... Continue reading
• I'm considering making a smaller side project for practice's sake
  November 04, 2020 by Happy Frog Games

  So, I'm considering slowing things down with making this for a bit, not forever but for a bit, to practice making small horror games, so as to make sure I know how to make a sufficiently spooky game b... Continue reading
• ...another new build! This time with two new weapons!

  I want to provide frequent updates on the game to get feedback on new features as quickly as possible. To that end, today I have also implemented two more weapon types, which by default you can switch... Continue reading
• New build, now with slopes!
  October 25, 2020 by Happy Frog Games

  Just implemented slopes into the game's physics. If you run up a slope and jump, you'll actually jump a bit higher than a normal jump! Also added a disclaimer that mentions that a lot of stuff is curr... Continue reading

• Project on (hopefully short) hold due to issues beyond my control
  October 13, 2020 by Happy Frog Games

  So I've decided to put the project on hold for a little bit while Clickteam resolves some Fusion issues leading to false positives in certain games compiled with it. I really like what I've planned of... Continue reading
• New build available
  October 11, 2020 by Happy Frog Games

  A new build is available which adds a proper title screen and an unfinished intro cutscene. Actual gameplay is roughly how it was before, aside from a small tweak to collision detection which hopefull... Continue reading
• Concept for how the Mirogox will work
  October 11, 2020 by Happy Frog Games

  So I'm currently thinking about having it so the rooms where you fight the Mirogox would show up randomly to replace existing rooms instead of having dedicated rooms. Like, basically, you enter a room... Continue reading

  Well, I want to try to be fairly open about the development of this game, but admittedly I've been planning some stuff before building the engine, since I wanted to have something simple to present to... Continue reading
