Decided to share some of the songs I’ve made for Trash Game. This one is the generic random-encounter song used in most instances that aren’t boss battles or special circumstances. I figured since it would play a lot, it had better be a real good song. So I spent extra time on it and now I’m pretty happy with it.

This is the theme that might play when/if you fight the Gun Nuns. Otherwise, some form of this leitmotif will be used for the Gun Nuns in general. Or to be precise, the Sisterhood of Saint Oakley, as they are technically called.

Main inspiration for this song was Revolutionary Etude by Chopin... or if I’m being totally honest, technically it was the DDR song called Zephyr which is just a techno dance remix of Revolutionary Etude. But who’s keeping track, right?

This song plays during the opening cutscene, and it’s among my favorite songs/leitmotifs. It probably didn’t need to be as long as I made it, but hopefully I’ll have other points in the game where this song can play.

Thought I’d make another progress thing on Trash Game

New talksprite sheets were made.

I also made very many textures that are just variations on cardboard-with-tape-holding-it-together. These are mostly for the trashlandian capitol of Boxton.

Right now Boxton looks a bit like this. Kinda lifeless I know. But it’s a start. I plan on replacing the windows with trashier windows for example. And decorating the place with objects. And populating it with people.

Also here’s part of the overworld map. All assets depicted were made by me, so that’s pretty cool. =u=)b

I’ve also started a bit on the assets for Treasureland, so here’s some of them to give you an idea of the aesthetic of that place. >u>;

I’ve also made a window-skin for the game.

The town of Upney has also been redone. It now features a fun mountainy paralax in the background.

So yeah~~

That’s the progress report~~

Some random-encounter enemies that can be found in my still-as-of-yet-unnamed Trash Game.

The concept of Trashlandia is that everyone and everything there is from the things that other worlds have thrown away. This includes incorporeal concepts, like abandoned dreams, or all the things you forget from when you’re a baby. Those things enter Trashlandia in the form of magical energies, which then combine with physical matter and give birth to new life. Even living beings who are thrown away by their own worlds to end up in Trashlandia will find that these energies have effected them too, and they begin to display new and unique abilities that they did not have before. 

So many of these creatures are at least vaguely based on objects that my minions on Discord found in their trash at my behest.

Lil’ Progress Thing for Trash Game

Still at the phase where I’m just kinda making assets and gathering assets that people donate at me.

Made a map for Upney, which is Trash Queen’s hometown and where you start the game. Been having some bugs that cause characters to be able to walk over tiles that they aren’t supposed to walk over.

Also started on this other area that I’ve been calling Cardboard Canyon for now. The pink trees will likely be replaced by something else resembling a willow tree. It will probably still be pink though.

Trash Queen sprite is done. And she’s looking pretty bode if I do say so myself.

There will be elemental damage types. But I decided I’d get a little creative with the concept of what counts as an element. These will play a role in the puzzle aspect of combat. Maybe you see a firey looking guy, so obviously he’d probably be weak to Wet or Frosty damage. But what kind of creature would be weak to Awkward damage? It’s not as clear cut. But for certain boss fights it will sorta test how well you understand the person you’re fighting. That’s my intent anyway.
