Stencyl Day 1

Adding in the background of the game so we can start building

Be sure to have Layer 0 above the background so you can see the blocks/tiles you are placing down.

Making the stage longer so i can have more room to build 

Making the stage by placing blocks/tiles

I attempted to make the stage look like stage 1-1 of mario

I put in Red but i had no time left to implement him into the game itself.

Game Journalism Day 4 - the little things

Game Journalism Day 4

The Small Things

What did I do?

i found the crystal ball in a cave near the old person who asks us for the picture of his wife and to collect water from the hidden pool of water

a noise maker is used to distract the seeker because it creates a load of noise when you throw it

i found the bobble heads in hidden spots in towns and areas but i forgot to take a picture of where i got them

it was hard to find the totem in the dead tree forest because it blended in with the scenery

it's quite easy to find the tumble weed because it appears everywhere on the map

i used golden bullets and hit it in the chest while running it took about 3 bullets to kill it

Tips and Tricks

you can sprint and jump at the same time to save more stamina (do not hold sprint)

crouching reduces the sound drastically, be careful to not walk on pebbles because it creates a lot of noise and attracts the seeker almost instantly

you can collect everything you can collect in a chest instantly if you press the spacebar

Game Journalism Day 3 - the difference

UPGRADE!

What's the difference?

There is a stamina bar when the seeker chases you now
There are now bobble heads you can collect in towns
There are also new towns to be discovered
they also have new dialog

What did you do today?

Al i did today was collect materials like wood, nails, rope and fiberl


What did you learn?

I learned that you can tap run and jump in a perfect sequence to use absolutely no stamina when you are running away from the seeker.
Desert Skies is a game about surviving from "The Seeker" while collecting materials around towns that you travel to.

What will you do next day?

- I will attempt to kill the seeker with gold bullets

Game Journalism Day 2 - The Seeker

What did you do today?

I had to restart the game because it wouldn't start

• image of seeker

• image of a town from the air

• image of your airship

What did you learn?

You can press spacebar when you open the chest to instantly collect it

You can collect as much materials in the first town without the seeker coming so you can take advantage and collect tons of wood and fiber from trees and cactus

You can craft your stone axe from a crafting table in the first town

These are the items that you can eat to satisfy your hunger

Desert Skies Game Journalism

What type of game is this?

Desert Skies is a game about surviving from "The Seeker" while collecting materials around towns that you travel to.

What do you do today to win the game?

I collected materials and ran away from the seeker.

Explain what you see and how to win the game?

You can see materials lying on the ground, sand, cactus, water wells, houses, taverns, bars, The Seeker and mountains in the background. You can win by surviving from the seeker and collecting items and materials to advance further into the game.

Items to collect

there are many materials to collect but the most important are..

Food

Wood

And of course water

This is the game you're in, it's a plain desert with towns here and there.

Here is an example

there are also caves you can find inside mountains

My plan for tomorrow..

I want to collect more items and advance further into the game.
