Few things work

It's been a while, since I've sat down to develop this game.
I feel like it being simply top down 2d like diablo , minus the isometric perspective, won't cut it for me.
I'm going to post my progress on this project in the upcoming month. bigger world. more potato to mash. more interactability. few npc's and a bit of story.  Also a tutorial: that's the most important part.

I am a big fan of castlevania, metroid. They are excellent games, but I believe I could improve upon that formula.

Ego; that's why
