Martial Heart

Indie dev. Making Martial Heart, a casual fighting game inspired in kendo, the martial art of ancient samurais.

Oss.

Now you can change your stance mid-game!

How it works according the type:

-Mid: balanced and you can measure the distance with your sword.

-High: more speed and less defense.

-Low: more strength and less speed.

@Juefeng282716 Aaah, Are you refering to the health bars, right? It is because I set infinite health to test the game more easily. I did not realize, haha.

[Martial Heart @WanjeWare]

Here we have another one for the game.

This is... Oda! The peasant samurai of the short but fast sword!

Besides old film filter, you can use a CRT filter like a true retro game as well.

Now, you can turn around when you want by pressing attack button to avoid accidents!

A good fighting game must have PARRIES.

What if the game was made by Akira Kurosawa?

Lastly, I have been making the different menus:
-Main menu
-Options
-Rule Settings
-Stage Selection
-Pause

Boring, but games have menus, What am I going to do?

In the end, I decided to change the stones to japanese garden lantern instead.

I recolored these characters and finished this animation.

It is cinema 🚬🚬🚬

Finally I have programmed the music. For now, I only put 2 songs, they are placeholders, though.

By the way, the vertical slice will be ready very soon!

Character select screen remade and now it has animations and sounds and it displays the buttons of your controller you are using.

This time, I fixed the background colors and put some stones on the floor to indicate the stage limits.

@UStateMachines Thank you :-)

[Martial Heart @WanjeWare]

I just started to draw the backgrounds.

Watch how the camera zooms out to show it!

With this character, you can measure the distance to the opponent. Like this, if you sword touchs the tip of the another one, that means you reach to attack.

Polishing the game making MORE PARTICLES

I fixed the blood as well.
