This looks fantastic! The teleporting effects and screen shake really had a great feel.

Heh. Frog Sord is on alphabetagamer. At least they mentioned that it's dead and linked here...

Wow, this is really shaping up beautifully. I love the mechanic, and the artwork gets better every time I see it. Great work, can't wait to play it.

Thanks, man! Delver art is looking as good as ever! I saw your tweet about Seattle dev meetups. It's probably about time that I get out to at least a few of those... |

You can destroy enemies by teleporting into them, as well as through them. All hail my lazy tiling job.

We thought about portals, but as of now I think it's one of the mechanics we cut, because we had too many already (2 per world, 5 worlds). If we have enough time/funding we might bring them back |

Game is looking pretty rad. Any chance of moving horz/vert platforms? I was thinking in early screens that the levels could really use some motion. The later gifs with the moving fog and animations help a lot, but I can really see some moving obstacles/platforms adding some good fun to it if you aren't already planning on it. Keep up the awesome work!

Vertically moving wall segments (platforms to wall jump off of) are in the game, yes |

BRIEF UPDATE
Hey, guys. I'm working hard this weekend. I'm wanting to release an open (at least semi-open) alpha build of SUPER III similar to how we did things with FROG SORD a few months back. I think I'm just going to simplify the whole thing and drop the player in World 1, Level 1. I won't focus on menus or any of the other miscellaneous stuff that isn't quite done yet. It will be a brief preview of the game so that you guys can give feedback on how it looks, but more importantly, how it feels/plays. As of now, it will probably just be like ten rooms. No alternate missions. Just the "get to the end" variation of each room. For those of you who don't know what I mean by that, don't worry about it. ANYWAY... tl;dr I WANT TO RELEASE A BUILD NEXT WEEKEND.   
THESE LINES ARE POINTLESS
Just a reminder, SUPER III is literally two weeks into development. Art, code, design. Everything. So it is VERY early, but things are moving fast. Thanks for the support!  |

I've certainly tried it! The original build had 4-directional teleporting. It made for some interesting stuff, but overall just gave the player almost too much maneuverability. The level design just got less interesting and all of my ideas were so easy to break. I now focus on teleporting for horizontal movement and wall jumping for the more complex vertical segments. However, there will be things like vertical conveyor belts and springs to propel the player upward. If nothing changes, you will start to see that stuff in World 3.  |

I didn't explain it right.
I was wondering if the overall direction of gravity would change, along with the directions you can teleport.
Normally, gravity goes down and you're able to teleport left/right.
I was thinking of gravity being switched to go right and you'd be limited to teleport up/down.

OH. GOTCHA.  That uh, hadn't crossed my mind, haha. However, that sounds neat. It would definitely make for some levels that are far more puzzley (I swear that's a word). I might mess with that after I finish the first-playable. |
