Unplanned update

Someone recently told me that I should post new/updated screencaps of my game because they may make people think my game is crappy and that those pics are of a more finished product than they are.
So here are newer screencaps of my still untitled game :














 What do you think of the main characters finished sprites?

Progress update 8/14/2012

   Hello, I thought I would update you guys on the games progress. I said I was going to work on the main characters sprites and I have been, but it got off to a rocky start. I had to either scrap one here or one would get screwed up there, but I got going good now, I have about 50% of the main characters sprite done.
Originally I was going to have the main character be 36 by 48(pixels) but after I started that way I realized that that size sprite would not work for the game I want, so I had to start all over with making a 32x32 sprite.

  You might be wondering why I am not posting any pictures this update, but because absolutely everything in my last batch of screenshots has been scrapped or changed completely, I decided to post pictures when I have something more concrete to post.

  So here's what I have so far:

Walking and strafing (from now on will be referred to only as moving)
about 50% of the main character sprites completed (animated)

-----------------

Here's what I will be working on next, in order(probably):

Finishing Main Character sprites (shooting sprites and magic attacking sprites, and probably getting hit sprite)
Creating an enemy character, so I can start the main character's attacks.
Creating the Main Characters Attacks
Creating all the menus(Status, Equip, Item, Title menu: New game, Load Game, Options(maybe)..

My New Game

I have started development of my newest game, progress is a little slow because I have no Idea how to make my own sprites(good ones...yet).
Here is what I have coded into the game so far:

Basic movement;
stopping at walls;
strafing;

I can't really continue coding the game until I make a good sprite for the Player Character...well I could but, I don't want to... as in I will finish or at the very least make a usable sprite that is animated when walking in all directions and has different animations for strafing. Once that is completed I can really get cooking and the game will fly along(hopefully).

here are some screenshots...I am fully aware that the game is totally unappealing right now.

A game from my Past.

  I thought I should give you guys something for visiting my blog, so here is a game from my past that I stopped working on over 4 years ago, http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?qa6fpht6vppvn6w
It was my very first attempt at making a game 100% of my own...then I let my brother play and he was like "That would never fly, those would never get off the ground blah blah blah"... so I scrapped it. anyway you guys can play that and if enough people ask for it I might make a reboot of it in a few years maybe...maybe.

Enjoy.

Here's some screenshots:





And the controls are "F"  Fires and the arrow keys move "up,down,left,right"

Hello World

This is my first blog, and I started it because I want to make video games and share them with the world.
I have made games in the past but I used sprites I got from the internet and music too, and because of that only me and my brother get to play my games. So in this blog I will talk about and maybe show my progress as I make games from scratch.

Thanks for visiting my blog today, I will update soon.
