HEY GUYS! Wanted to share with the people of Newgrounds a bunch of ideas I have for a game I want to make sometime in the future! My "dream game". Salem or Bust is an action platformer styled after classic metroidvanias and Sonic the Hedgehog games. I want it to be fast and fun, but also require skill to blast through, while less skilled players can take a slower, more strategized approach.
First up, our protags! Here we have Triffy:
Our main witchy lass is cocky, loud, and all-around here to mess up everyone's plans. She uses her broomstick-shotgun to get around, and has the ability to brew potions for battle.
Next is Unit SU-3, otherwise known as Sue:
This robotic game-show host takes a more Megaman style approach to gameplay being more focused on blasting through with strength and not speed.
Also some HUD designs for each of them!
Since I wanna try and get this kickstarted here on Newgrounds, I thought it might be fitting to throw in some NG NPCs and possible playable characters too!
While not everything is really fleshed out an it's just in an idea phrase right now, I wanna work on it and roughing out the edges to see what this could really be! My plan is to start with model sheets, and small animations, and sometime soon, finding coders and musicians to help make this a reality here on Newgrounds! I hope you guys enjoyed this little introduction to an idea that may or may not happen! Except to hear more and SEE more soon!
