First post! I'd like to show this project I've been working on, a Rockfish inspired metroidvania game made with the Godot Game Engine.

Here's some screenshots:

Thank you! I'll try to post here frequently, no promises though lol.

Welcome to the forums :D great game btw
Thank you!

For the next area, you'll readjust water levels to progress, so I started adding water to my water game.

I'm excited to see what you make, take your time on the game and don't be afraid to ask others in the community for their opinions!
It makes me happy to see that others are also making games and posting them on this site still

Thank you! I'll be sure to do so, might post a play test build here someday.


Sorry for not posting for a while, I was participating on the GMTK 2024 gamejam (Here's my submission!), so my full time was dedicated to that.

Currently I'm taking a small break before working on the game again, I'll post more updates as soon as I'm well rested!

Very cute! I love games that have these very limited stylizations and honestly it's what got me started when I was first taking a serious shot at game development too.
It's heartening to see someone that's this invested in pixel art on the forum, we need more pixel artists in this world <3

This does look as though it's coming along very nicely, it's always good to see Pixel's older/unfinished games still having some influence

Are you considering a weapon system similar to Rockfish as well or how's that going to work?

I'm still not sure if I'm including one, the game's combat is completely different from Rockfish. If I were to make one, it would be similar to the one in SOTN.

Here's some gameplay of the first few areas (Things are really broken so don't mind the broken textures :toroko2:).

Awesome to see you've picked up Godot, is this test video running in GM or Godot? I know you were tinkering with both engines for a bit though when configured right they look kinda indistinguishable

Godot! I haven't used GameMaker in years now.

I found a bug with the VK driver that crashes my whole system so for now sections will always be visible.
