After over 200 days of work, I stopped working on what I thought was my dream game, but why? I explain in this devlog. My new game, Project Myth, is an roguelike inspired by hollow knight and risk of rain 2, and in this video, I'm covering the first 50 days of development, ending with a brand new bossfight with Ares!

  • I love Ares being the weakest boss bc in most Greek Myths despite being a war god he's pretty weak
  • @sl1ppey
    Neat I wanna play it. The feedback when hitting enemies looks especially satisfying.
  • Suggestion for a boss is the Nemean Lion, a golden furred lion that's impervious to attack, and was killed by Hercules via choking it to death.
  • Movement looks clean 🔥🔥🔥! Idea for mythical creature: In Brazilian folclore we have the Headless Mule, which is a black or brown mule with no head, its neck is constantly spewing fire like the ghost rider and it screams imitating a crying woman.

    Dream games are usually tricky,very prompt to scope creep. I'm also building a game that is not my dream game, and creating devlog shorts for it. I wish you the best of luck.

    Absolutely loving it! You were one of my main inspirations to start a devlog series. The only thing I'd change is the Daitengu's sword, it's really small while it's moving and then the attack is quite big, so it may feel a bit unfair

    ayyy devlog 2! We kinda started the same time so its cool to see you make progress along side me. Especially since we have a similar game loop with the waves!

    Some ideas for enemys (most of them i dont know much about apart from the short sum that apears when you search them) Nuckelavee (Scottish Mythology): Horrifying sea creatures with the torso of a man fused to a horse, spreading disease and decay. Draugr (Norse Mythology): Undead warriors that rise from their graves, becoming very strong but slow. Jotunn (Norse Mythology): Giants with immense strength, often wielding massive weapons like clubs or hammers. Harpies (Greek Mythology): Winged spirits known for stealing food and souls, attacking in swarms and using their claws. Rakshasas (Hindu Mythology): Shape-shifting demons with the ability to cast illusions and powerful magic. Thats all my ideas for normal monsters then heres some boss/minibosses Susanoo (Japanese Mythology): The storm god wielding a powerful sword, able to call upon devastating storms and lightning strikes. Tiamat (Mesopotamian Mythology): A primordial sea goddess who can summon sea monsters and use water-based attacks, transforming the arena into a deadly oceanic battlefield. Yamata no Orochi (Japanese Mythology): An eight-headed dragon that can attack with multiple elements simultaneously, creating a chaotic combat environment. Thats all my ideas i hope ya use some

    Love the vid! As I am a huge fan of myths and legends (favourite author of all time was Rick Riordan), I would love to play this game. I have only one suggestion for this game which is adding something like the enemies of the gods, for example the Titans in Greek mythology, helping the main character. For example, you can add something like Hyperion's blessing (the titan of light/brightness), which will apply a dazzling status that stuns the enemy for a few seconds, Would be a very cool idea.

    9:41 RIP Placeholder Joe 😞😞😞. He was a pretty nice guy, actual
  • Jormangandur or Oroborous would be insanely cool to add if possible
  • @HackMan1248
    In the Indian mythology, there are many creatures that can be used as monsters, however most of them are "vahanas" or rides that the gods use.. I would like some mechanic like that so that you can tame/ride specific creatures that are actually rides of the Indian gods that you subdue
  • In Flanders, Ossaert is the name of a water ghost known to strangle people. But that’s just one guy and he generally didn’t kill people. In Frisia, there’s a similar story. Unlike the Belgian one, this spirit doesn’t have a personal name but is known as the Grypkagrauw, which means the Grab-you-Grizzle. It’s an invisible forest spirit that comes out at night. It grabs victims by the head and turns it 180 degrees. The myth has it that many people were found like that on early mornings. It is sometimes said to be invincible and has incredible strength but it only attacks from behind.
  • @snugpig
    Love the art style! You should try adding some layered backgrounds, i think that would look sick
  • @lukascaha1429
    You could add a Kappa from Japanese mythology, or a "Polednice" from Slavic mythology.
  • @RatKeeper
    You could have the behemoth and leviathan as bosses or a duel boss were they switch
