Ron's Adventure [Wii U - 201?]

[MasterF0x]

As I stated in my welcome message, I develop Wii U games. I develop them alone, matter of fact. I can't afford programmers, music designers, artists, etc., so I do them all myself.

Here's a title I started back in August called "Ron's Adventure" and development is going pretty swell. I can't, once again, afford a development kit, so I have a person testing the game on the actual hardware.

In this thread, I will post screenshots, videos, info and more to keep you guys updated!

As of now, I have a small video of game play. (A small test level I made)

How did you get someone to test it on the actual hardware?
Like, do ya know someone with a dev kit?

Yes, I know someone with a dev kit. When you become a registered Nintendo dev, you're registered to an online community fourms full of other Nintendo devs. :D

Damn you're so young but you're already an expert at C++ and C!?!
I've been struggling to break away from using Gamemaker and its built in language.
But it's so tempting to go back when I see games like Nidhogg and Nuclear Throne getting published on steam and now the ps4 has gamemaker support.

So ya got a plan for what this games gonna be like when it's finished or are ya just makin it up as ya go along?

Both yes, and no. I have the story and plot down, but I still have to figure out the enemies and stuff like that.

This actually seems cool.
So is it basically a platformer that has you defeating enemies by throwing bombs?

There'll be more than just bombs. I'll setup a demonstration video probably around E3 showcasing more abilities.
