Bloodstained News #38: Meet Some Lesser Demons

as a fun joke, there needs to be another monster named lick and there needs to be a room with lick and morte >P

loving the animations so far, the turning animation is progressing nicely, maybe have a 1frame screech stop with a swoosh or dust cloud between the end of forward movement and the leg drag into opposite direction to give more weight to her movement? the low kick has a really nice snap to it at the end, and the morte going bleaugh and disintegrating is cool and he has the perfect shamble going, and miriams idle pose yeee ^_^

the ribbons are really cool, im wondering if the back cloud would be more ethereal if it was at 75% 0r 50% opacity, it may be the flat color background playing a trick but it looks like shes got a purple blob attached to her back when shes stationary, looks awesome when shes in motion though >_>b

morte works really well as an early tutorial/zombie enemy, dullahammer looks like itd be fun to fight, and i wonder if seama will have a grab attack thatll leave you vulnerable to a smaller hit and run enemy?

I think it possible that wabawanga was referring to his impression that the Morte basically looks like an amorphous blob.

Maybe he prefers the Morte's death-animation to reflect what it looks like it's made of.  It kind-of does look slimey/gooey to me.
^
Though, as he also said, it isn't like it's totally necessary to alter the Morte's death-animation.  We'll all be happy with this game regardless.

While obviously Miriam will look more polished and be better animated than any monster in the final game, the impression I got from this clip was that the monster animations and model weren't 100% done (I could be wrong though). I expect some improvement though I dunno if the nature of the death animation will change.

  Do you think they'll become the new "Medusa Heads"?

I still can't get over how good the character model is. It seriously looks like a highly detailed 2d sprite in pictures. They've done a spectacular job where it counts so far.

Thinking about it, the nature of these enemies obviously suggest some sort of water/aquatic section or level in the castle. I wonder how it will manifest itself in the game. Between SOTN, AOS, OOE, etc. I wonder which game the water level(s) in Bloodstained will most resemble.
