Climbing Mount Shepard: A short Knytt Stories level

shepard info.png

I ran into a bit of a mental block on this big level I'm working on, so I finished up a level I started a couple days ago. It's called Climbing Mount Shepard. and it's pretty short, so it won't take long to reach the end... or will it? Tileset is Vestiges 2 by Sergio Cornaga.

Another Knytt level: Dark House

dark house info.png

Here is a short level I made while I was working on a larger one. Basically it's a dark maze implemented in Knytt Stories. Very short, as I didn't think I could maintain this kind of thing over a long level. Has a few secrets, including one that might be rather hard to get. (If you get too frustrated with it, you have my permission to just look it up in the editor.)

New Knytt Stories level: At the Zoo

at the zoo info final.png

I donated a custom Knytt Stories level to Spring Thing this year, and now, a few months after the comp finished, the level is done. Special thanks to B Minus Seven for picking the prize!

Anyway, At the Zoo is about Juni searching for her friends at, well, the zoo. It's a pretty short piece (only twenty screens) and there are no challenging bits. Instead it's focused around atmosphere and little overheard snatches of dialogue. Give it a try, I bet you'll like it!

(Music is a shortened version of this track.)

My 2 Games now in 32 Bit versions, playable on new computers!

Storm+Salto.JPG

Dear All,

Thanks to our own tremendous Sergio Cornaga I was finally able to make playable standalones of Storm Is Coming and Le Sunset Salto. They should run on new systems, as opposed to the old 16 bit versions.

Enjoy, spread the word, let me know if they work.

Storm Is Coming (2009):
You are in a grassy valley where your happiness seems to be going to last forever except that the storm is going to begin as soon as the song ends - and flood the whole valley. To avoid that, you are going to need help of three animals. Two different endings (apart from death obv)

Le Sunset Salto (2010):
The sun is going down, this is going to be your last salto of the cliff. But when you go under, everything is different; everything becomes an adventure in this magical hour. There are 8 different endings. Mermaids, Octopodes, Jellyfish, a Whale, Sunken Ship, Crabs, a Fisherman, an island with palmtrees.

EDIT: Bug fixed, updated version posted. Thanks Sergio, as always!
EDIT 2: Octopus Bug Fixed in LSS, Room leaving fixed in SIC, updated versions posted.
EDIT 3: Achievement screen fixed.
EDIT 4: Achievement screen now really fixed.
EDIT 5: Achievement screen now really really fixed.
EDIT 6: Achievement screen cleaned up and hints hopefully fixed.
EDIT 7: Rock clipping bug and bottom transition from the fisherman fixed.

Anyone want a CD of my KNP games updated to run on newer hardware?

Hey. so a few months back I made some compilation CDs and DVDs for a games festival here.

NO ONE BOUGHT THE GLORIOUS TRAINWRECKS THEMED ONES

So if you want one, let me know and I'll send you one for free :)

Any left-over will be chucked up on my itch.io page, and with other ones I made for the fest (a dream games one, and a general sampler) for maybe $4 each (plus postage?). So this is a special GT friends deal, I guess.

I've also updated all the games' entries here with the new versions. I'll get to MMFerising the rest of my KNP games some other time.

Games included:

  1. Authentic Celestial Shiv
  2. Breakanoid Ball
  3. Breakanoid RC
  4. Bullet Hell Bulldog
  5. Castlevania 10 (can't shoot up, like in the Newgrounds version)
  6. Collecting
  7. Colour2
  8. Fighting Pilot (I couldn't get the arm to work the same way as before though:( )
  9. Glorious Trainwrecks
  10. No No Sleep
  11. Platform RC
  12. Pololo Shodown
  13. Rapture Raptor

My new music video, made in KnP

Dear dears,

A much-needed change of pace and atmosphere here on my end, I have just published an animated video, all animations made in Klik N Play, for my lo-fi casio punk song. It is nonsense but funny at times I think. Enjoy! And if you like my music I have 54 albums available for download / purchase, links are in the video description.

Poor Thing Update

screenshot14.PNG

Hi anybodies,

I have been working on Poor Thing almost every day for five months. Recently I had a bit of a breakdown and I cannot bringmyself to start working on it again, but I will, don't worry, small steps. It is just overwhelming. But I want to finish it. But it just gets bleaker and more depressing, the game I mean. So stepping away for a bit but instead I complete the backstory and work on the plot and these things are actually progressing. I've been working on my music more recently and I am also making a music video on KnP, I will post it when I'm done. There are many new levels added but it is all a secret and I cannot show you the secret levels.
