so, ive done a bunch of work. for the gameplay ive kept it pretty similar to the rk remake, but i added in a thing where you can actually shoot spamtons chest at any point in an attack and deal damage to him. i think it adds a fair bit to the gameplay. whenever your in an attack as long as spamtons there you can chip away at his hp. depending on the attack itll be easier or harder to do this.. also, i changed it so that you can go back on a selection, that was something a lot of people had issues with in the rk remake as for the attacks.. im trying to make them a lot harder than the original spamton fight, but its a little difficult. with the rk, it was really easy to make the attacks stronger just because of the way they were designed, but with spamton its much harder. theres not much i can do besides just spamming projectiles, which imo, isnt very fun, so ive had to get creative to make the attacks harder. im thinking about just yoinking some things from the rk game, and mixing that with spamtons attacks. like the cardinal swords, or maybe the sword hallway. thats a good way to make things harder :) whats in the screenshots is very unfinished art-wise. kris, susie, and ralsei are all just placeholder sprites ripped from the rk remake. ill need to redraw them to fit with the vibe of this game. the carts are also placeholder. i dont think they fit in properly since its difficult to pick them out at a first glance, which is not great. or.. maybe it doesnt matter if you can see them at a first glace or not because the attention is supposed to be on the characters? idk. the background in general has just given me a ton of issues, ive tweaked it countless times but it always seems to look off. in screenshots especially it looks odd, in motion it looks quite a bit better though so far in the game i have 8 music tracks, might add more.. its a lot easier to get tracks that fit the vibe im going for then it was in the rk remake. and the vibe here for anyone curious is like.. dystopian brutalist. i was inspired a lot by stardust speedway and hueco mundo, and the rain village from naruto. surprisingly, some of the sonic and the secret rings ost fits really well here
