I have been working on this project for a while now, it is a sequel to a game I created for Historically Accurate Game Jam called The Walls of Annwn - the game did pretty well which convinced me to start expanding on the game. I ruled out a straight-up update to the original game and instead decided to create a follow-up game. Initially, the plan was to remake the first game with enhanced visuals. But ultimately the dungeon in the original game isn't very fun and there wouldn't be any point in replaying the first game again just with better tiles and sprites. The plan now is to have a couple of entirely new dungeons and the original dungeon from The Walls of Annwn as a secret level. The game like the first game is being powered by Clickteam Fusion 2.5, not the most versatile tool I know but it's what I am comfortable with. I have started from scratch a couple of times now but this new version is the most optimized.

Here's some shots so far:

Oh this looks super cool! Love the style.

For some reason, the game visually reminds me a lot of the Gauntlet II for a Game Boy, just colored of course.

What can you share about the gameplay mechanics?

Thank you :D

Thanks, Gauntlet and its predecessor Dendy are definitely part of the inspiration behind some things in the game. The gameplay is pretty similar to the first game, a basic dungeon crawler where you use magic projectiles to attack enemies whilst collecting items. But my aim with this new game is to add more puzzles to the dungeon rather than the basic get key and progress approach I have used in the path. I'm not entirely sure what these puzzles might be like, I just know there will be environmental puzzles.

Happy Annwnween!

Hi, I like your game Annwn II, from the pixel graphics to the halloween theme, I would like to create the soundtrack for it, and if you already have it create the trailer music, I leave you my previous works:

Been a while since I have done anything since I have been so busy with different things. But it always feels nice to crack open the Annwn II project folder again.

Game is still far too early yet to start thinking about the soundtrack and I think I may do the music myself, not sure yet.

I don't want to know what lays eggs that large. Happy Easter!

Getting big time Ultima and Gauntlet vibes from this and that is not a bad thing at all.

I really like the look of this! It especially gives me the impression of being something where I could get way too into it, if it had a map editor of some kind. The style feels like it would really lend itself to sandbox-like interaction, building custom puzzles or adventures to share with friends.
