More Asami

I wonder when raunchy Henshin-Engine doujins will eventually pop up.

Happy Success to you guys!

I admit I am a little jealous but happy this is being made and completed!

*GASPS* 2017!

i am so excited about this project and i'm supporting this 100 percent! i will be uploading the newest demo for my youtube channel once i receive the demo copy

OldRover · 05/16/2016, 12:33 AM

We had an awesome showing of the game at Lvl Up Expo.

We were even able to display multiple builds of the game, as I had my dev laptop with me and could update the game on-the-fly. Saturday's first build had a couple of bugs in it and no one could beat it except me, and even then only twice... yeah, it was that hard. I made a new build Saturday that fixed a few of the issues, making it more playable. Sunday's first build made it possible for people to actually get through stage 1-1, though it was still pretty hard... so I made a second build which increased the life count from 3 to 9. We actually had a few people clear the demo when said changes were made. Sarumaru and I both got pics of people playing the demo.

Great booth set up for it!! Very impressive how this all got off the ground and is already at this point!

cr8zykuban0 · 05/21/2016, 02:26 PM

I know right??? I was there testing out the 2nd demo and man what a huge improvement over the already great first demo. Love this great idea coming into a reality!

Woo, yeah it was a blast! I accomplished a lot. I beat the current incarnation of Henshin-Engine. I also beat Mysterious Song on normal mode and started EX mode.

And then... I did a no hit run on Henshin-Engine!!

I was drinking some very potent beers and well.. This happened... I was back up 5min 30sec later with the help of Ladymagus.

The entire video is like 10hrs long. Can be found here. It has HE and MS back and forth throughout the night.

I should also mention that the first 1hr 30min was the latest build of the game.
BTW, my vids have a ton of swearing. May not be appropriate for younger audiences or at work.

Yo rover! just did a review on the newest demo for henshin engine! Hope yall like it!!

OldRover · 06/01/2016, 07:52 PM

Saw it, shared it, fuck yeah.

It showed up in today's youtube email.

thanks david! i appreciate it! and best believe i'll be sharing each demo that i get from dj to help bring some exposure to the game!

OldRover · 06/01/2016, 09:59 PM

The demo disc you got is not the final build for 2D Con... it's the one that was made just in case a more advanced build couldn't be made in time... however, a more advanced build was made in time, and it makes that one look easy. The moving platforms ramp up the difficulty considerably, as they move fast and require good timing to traverse... not to mention the fact that Sarumaru designed the stage to have those bloody obnoxious bees spawning around the already-precarious platform-jumping sections...

OldRover · 06/01/2016, 10:53 PM

This is the final build for 2D Con.

cr8zykuban0 · 06/02/2016, 02:02 AM

oh wow, im sure with those moving platforms and them killer bees coming at you, that would definitely be a fun time!!! lol looks great!

munchiaz · 06/06/2016, 04:06 AM

gaming is shaping up nicely. Really looking forward to this

Sarumaru · 07/07/2016, 08:21 PM

So I had this packaged copy of the demo made by some guy I know who makes repros, this one's going out to chany since he's gonna have HE on display for Turbofest. It's the only one so far, but I wanted to show off its contents before it goes out to chanus.

Progress has been good and so far we haven't reached any hurdles. I am trying to find ways to speed things up but even if we keep up at this pace, we should meet our self proposed deadline of March. We are working on the next stage of the game at the moment. As some of you may know, every stage in HE is based on a parody-version of a game that will appear in the HE comic. The next stage in development is a Castlevania themed stage after the parody-themed game in HE, Castlevampire-Z ;)

TheClash603 · 07/07/2016, 11:15 PM

Looks very nice, is that close to how the real deal will look?

that looks badass. please save me one!

OldRover · 07/08/2016, 12:10 AM

As promised, there is now a PC version of the game as well.

NightWolve · 07/08/2016, 12:29 AM

What are you using to build it ?

OldRover · 07/08/2016, 12:43 AM

gcc+SDL2

Similar, except that it will have a full color manual. This is just a fold out with inserts and the disc is a paint coated cdr. The CD duplication will have a silk-screened, pressed disc much like any retail disc. My shitty camera don't do this packaged version justice though. >.<

esteban · 07/08/2016, 02:31 AM

Gorgeous.

cr8zykuban0 · 07/12/2016, 01:22 AM

soooooooo when the kickstarter coming out?

definitely let us know so we can start saving moneys!

OMG! That sounds fan-fucking-tastic!!! Mind blown!

esteban · 07/19/2016, 01:07 PM

Yes!

QuoteFAN-F@CKING SPLENDID. For a happy, cheerful soundtrack, this sounds great. I hope Simon will use his powers to create somber, darker soundscapes in other PCE projects. That said, these tunes are quite magnificent. SIMON, I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR YOUR OWN VERSION OF THE 2-4 SONGS FROM TIMEBALL/BLODIA. Thank you for the awesomeness.

jtucci31 · 07/19/2016, 01:33 PM

Hell yeah! This music is so great. Can't wait to play the game to go along with it

OldRover · 07/19/2016, 10:24 PM

Just so everyone knows... someone has stepped up to the plate to fill a role that neither Saru nor I can fill properly, and that's the task of doing the backgrounds. Gredler did the amazing stage 00 but was not able to join us for the entire project, so Saru and I attempted to do the work for the rest of the game. The results were... below what they should be for such a game. So, we've enlisted another amazing artist to fill the position, and as usual, he never fails to deliver. I'll let him decide whether or not he wants to announce his presence on the project, but here's a teaser of things to come:
