Testing Alpha Build v.021 uploaded


Marine Boy 2065, alpha build v.021, is available for download! https://potus.itch.io/marine-boy-2065

This one is still taking place on the "test" platform, I've been using for the development thus far.

The Mission, is to neutralize all the enemies.

Along the way, inside the crates on the platform, you'll find Crystal Ore's for all upgrade-ables, some Oxygum reserves, and Jet Boot Power cells. There's some gems to be acquired too.

No Jet Boot abilities yet, but Marine Boy can swim. To go up and down, use Q for up, Z for down, while in the water. The WASD or arrow keys for movement, as with while walking.

Walk = WASD or arrow keys
Jog = hold the Right Mouse button down with WASD or Arrow keys
Run = run forward, hold down the Control key along using WAD or Arrow Up/Left/Right, plus the Right Mouse button.
Run = run backwards, hold down the S key, or Down arrow key, while pressing Control plus the Right mouse button.

Swimming medium then fast, uses the same as above combos. The idea is when you add the Right mouse to the movement keys, you jog/go faster underwater. You then add the Control key to run, swim fastest.

It sounds awkward, but it works for now. Feedback welcome.

In terms more on the gameplay - yeh, take out all enemies, get you a "Mission Complete", then the level restarts.

If you get knocked out, you get a "Mission Failed", and the level restarts.

If you go swimming and run out of air, you get knocked out with a "Mission Failed".

There's two Easter Eggs. One under the water, the other is in a crate. (the underwater one might crash the game, hopefully not if you find it).

If you go underwater I recommend you find the upgrade for your Oxygum formulation with Crystal Ore, and get the Oxygum pack and strip inside the crates in your inventory first. Or, you'll probably run out of air.

I recommend finding the Special Suit Crystal Ore to upgrade the Suit, or you'll likely get knocked out as the Suit is not that resistant at Generation 1.

Also, upgrade you Boomerang with some Crystal Ore for that too. Get the range up, and get that targeting limit up. Generation 1 Boomerang is quite limited. On the Big Cargo ship, all those crates have Crystal Ore for boomerang upgrades. There's like, a shit load there. The upgrade mechanic isn't working how I want yet, so I put them there for testing. Use them if you want, upgrades take you up to 8 targets at once, and a range of 5,000 plus (you start at 1000, with 1 target).

Last thing but important if you're using the ledges, the ladders and or the grappling hook - The legend on level 1 for the key bindings is off - the climb ledges key is now "R", instead of "F".

Too, if you want, if you time jumping into the surf on level 1 right, you can swim in the ocean there. It's tricky, cuz you'd think you could just walk in, but no, you have to jump while moving into the waves just off the beach.
