You definitely need to make it so that the megalovania and rickroll versions of the song have a 10% chance of playing. PLEASE DO THIS!! also, can't wait to finally play the game tomorrow
@@icoso lmao that would be epic but at least pitch the rickroll and megalovania midis in key with the rest of the song (or pitch up/down everything else)
Not sure if you'll see this before the final day but you should add colours to the levels, such as making floor one have a forest ascetic with trees in corners. Another idea I had was classes: before you start the game you get to pick from 3 classes: normal (the one you've been making throughout this series.) Lancer: increased dash damage and reduced bullet damage, also has a bigger dash hitbox, starts with -5 bullets. ranger: increased bullet damage reduced dash damage, +5 starter bullets and +1 bullet gained when killing enemies so +3 bullets per kill.
Hey, all of this sounds really cool! Yeah, I'm not sure if I'll have the time to incorporate all of this today, but that would be a really nice addition for a future update !:D
A good simple trick for bass lines is octave jumps. Like root note on 1, octave on 4, back to root for the and of 4 and then the next root note. Rinse and repeat P.S. if you pray hard enough you can change your feelings toward Bass
Honestly would have loved to argue why we should care about bass and whatever, but idk what even is that I have never played any instrument of any type and my soul is absolutely dead after getting sans'd and gave up, and let down, and turned around and desert me, like I just wanna tell you how I am feeling, gotta well make you understand, never gonna give you up never gonna let you down never gonna run around and hurt you, never gonna tell a lie, never gonna *SAY GOODBYE*
Stuff to add - Bullet upgrades/different upgrades Followers to help you fight Abilities/items to help you fight Button changing thingie (too lazy to look it up) Sight to help aim (toggleable) Heart size slider Music, sound effects and master volume slider
Them beats really do be slappin’ tho. I especially like Icosolovania. That’s my favourite song ever :D Jokes aside though, please let there be a small chance that both the meme songs play in-game. That’d be great!
nice work! and also fun fact i listened to your album in spotify yesterday, pretty cool but and as if tmr it would pretty cool if you were able to make a boss too but take it easy :)
The Game Is All Coming Together Now :) Cant Wait To See The Final Product :) ,Would Be Cool If You Finished Developing Minima,Youll Come Back To This Game And Add More Features And Stuff, Youre Awesome Icoso :) Youve Come So Far, This Is Inspiring And Exciting To See, Cant Wait To Play It :)
Nice , music is my weakest part in gamedev so this was really helpful even tho I couldn't afford fl studio and can only stick around with b.. bo.bus Bosca ceeeeoiiiilllll Anyway really cool devlog icoso!!!
100 Likes, 100 Comments, pretty cool. Great game, I actually started working on my game, because of this devlog series :D. Will you be still adding something to the game tomorrow (today)?
Haha, it's balanced 😎 Thank you for the nice comment, and best of luck on your new project! Tomorrow I'll just be setting up the game page and making a trailer :)
Looks really nice, but I don't see why you would use the bullets. They are very restricting and the dashing is 10X more satisfying and it ends up just being better. Could you maybe balance it out?
A little bit much with the jokes, but anyways, awesome music! I'm not a music expert by any means, but there's something off about it. Perhaps some more mixing?
You definitely need to make it so that the megalovania and rickroll versions of the song have a 10% chance of playing.
PLEASE DO THIS!!
also, can't wait to finally play the game tomorrow
Hahaha, that'd be hilarious 🤣🤣
YES I WILL AA
Thanks! Can't wait to release it! ^^
@@icoso lmao that would be epic but at least pitch the rickroll and megalovania midis in key with the rest of the song (or pitch up/down everything else)
@@7sunami I manually transposed megalovania but I was too tired to do it with the Rick roll 🤣
Binker
This game really resembles the game “Rouge”. Don’t know why.
Mmm yes, it's very like-rogue
@@icoso So to say, a Rogue-like game?
I think it's because of the stellar graphics.
I think all the puns killed a piece of my soul
In all seriousness, once again I loved seeing the music production side of things. Great stuff!
Hahah xD I knew I just had to take the opportunity
Thank you very much! I'm always so happy to receive a comment for you! :D
The Michael Jackson jokes killed me. The actual song sound really cool, looking forward to playing the game tomorrow.
Hahaha 🤣 Glad you enjoyed them, and thanks for stopping by! :D
DAVIEEE
I really liked those tambourine (is this the Word) swells in the drum beat
DAVIIIEIEEEEE
I think I used hi-hats there, but yes, very similar :D

Love this series you have inspired me thank you
Thank you, and that's so awesome to hear! :D
The puns really sold it to me, mate. Subscribed.
Thank you so much, haha! ^^ Glad you enjoyed my attempts at being funny :P

Thanks! I'll try that out :)
lol, sure
wow the song is really good, even if it is not your confort zone, it's amazing !
Thank you! That gives me a lot of motivation, haha! 😅
The puns, they were just simply amazing. I am very proud of you.
And the music is brilliant! It works really well with the game! :D
Saul do be spitting some facts right here 😎
Thank you very much! Glad you think so, haha! 😅
Bro you killed it with those puns! I'm not even mad , I'm impressed lmao XD
Hahah xD Thanks!
I will take this vid as a music class because someone thought we don't need them at school
xD I hope your school gets a music class, they do be very fun 😎
Icoso really liked to make musics.
I sure darnly do 😎
Loving these devlogs! Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much! Will do ^^
It's nice seeing you show us how you make your music
Haha, I'm glad you liked it! :)
The home stretch is nigh, congrats on all your progress so far and noice in-game music!
Thank you! Aaalmost there! 😎
Dayymmmnn those were some nice banger melodies ❤
That was the best rickroll ever.
True, true 😎
Really interesting to see how you made the music
Thanks! ^^

Thank yous! That might be a fun challenge later down the line :)
@@icoso glad you like the challenge 😏
Imagine this game blowing up as a popular indie title that makes enough money to rival games like undertale lmao. That'd be cool to witness
Hahaha, I wish 🤣
03:37 NGL it's a pretty epic melody.
😎
3:24
He got us in the first part not gonna lie

Sigh... he got us in the second part not gonna lie

I don't know what's better. the game or the music, They are both amazing! (ps. I am still waiting for Icornso's return)
Ay, thanks! Haha! 😅
Icornso will return, yes yes
The synthwave Rick Astley kind of slapped ngl
I know, right? Very groovy 🕺

Haha, sorry to let you down! 😅 Thanks for the nice comment ^^

nice work! and also fun fact i listened to your album in spotify yesterday, pretty cool but and as if tmr it would pretty cool if you were able to make a boss too but take it easy :)
Ay, thank you very much! Yeah, I don't think I have the energy to make a boss fight 😅 Maybe in a future update, tho!

Hahah, thank you! xD
Nice, this game is really coming together, I can't wait to play it!⏳

Sure is! Thank you for the nice comment, and yeah, it might be fun to come back to this after Minima! I guess we'll see what happens! :D
You should not have stopped the Michael Jackson Puns. You stopped before I got enough 😪
😎 You really just had to Enjoy Yourself with that one, didn't you? :p
sounds great!
Cheers! ^^
Nice , music is my weakest part in gamedev so this was really helpful even tho I couldn't afford fl studio and can only stick around with b.. bo.bus
Bosca ceeeeoiiiilllll Anyway really cool devlog icoso!!!
Haha, thanks! Bosca Ceoil is actually pretty great - I used it for about a year before buying FL Studio :)
definitely very dangerous music lol
Really Cool! I mean Epic
Thank you!
:o, the STREAK
i love this series pls make it 1 year(not the same game)
Thanks! I can't go 1 year with daily uploads 😅
The music is so so awesome 🙃
Thank youu! :D
You are welcome 🙃
i LOVE the music :D

Cool music nice video
Glad you liked it - thanks! :)
Wow great music
Hey wait a minute you rickrolled me
Thank you!
Hey wait a minute yes i did
Them beats do be slapping tho.
oh yeah 😎
@@icoso Side note, Squares is a great album. Been listening to it while studying for the past week!
Daily uploads?!? Impossible!
Haha! 😅 1 more day to gooo!
Smooth tunes
Thanks! :)
i think icoso is a game developer idk maybe who knows.
yeah idk uh he's kinda weird but yeah
Never Gonna... Nevermind... Nice job! 😅
xD
*sad bean boss sounds
bean boss bean
Awesome progress... tomorrow please add SQUID GAMES ❗❗
will do, epic 👌
100 Likes, 100 Comments, pretty cool. Great game, I actually started working on my game, because of this devlog series :D. Will you be still adding something to the game tomorrow (today)?

Thank you for the nice comment, and best of luck on your new project! Tomorrow I'll just be setting up the game page and making a trailer :)
ur music really hits different a tutorial would be awesome since music feels inpossible to make good for me :')
Aha, thank you! 😅 I'm not sure how competent I'd be at making a music tutorial, but I might try and put one together some day! :)
0:35 *Michael's soul commits suicide*
Idk, that melody feels... idk... :/ (better than anything i could make at least xD)
Also... u have a weird cat :P
Haha 😅
Indeed I do :P
Man, I wish I could be that good in making music too :[]
Haha, you'll definitely get there some day! :)
Your cat pictures is creepy. I'm scared of your cat lol :O
>:D meow
@@icoso ahhh °~°
@@bxstiii >:DDDD
You can make a timer for dashing which fills every 'x' seconds as dashing the whole game make it a lil easy
Good idea! ^^
You have a cool cat
Yes i do 😎
Yes Bass!
no
Looks really nice, but I don't see why you would use the bullets. They are very restricting and the dashing is 10X more satisfying and it ends up just being better. Could you maybe balance it out?
Thank you! When playing it, I think the dash becomes a bit more risky in the late game, so I think that works as an indirect balance :)
@@icoso Ah ok its just cause of that one clip where you dashed through all the enemies with no consequences lol
Ok cool music
Ok cool comment
poggers bro,
:D
RE NAME THE GAME TRIANGLE BOY
1 day is enough for a boss fight, isn't it? (I have done stuff like this mainly game jams, no regrets)
hahahahahahahahahahaahahahahah no
@@icoso Ok whatever you like
nice song
Thank you! ^^
bussin bussin
it do be bUssin bussin
I think the sounds could be more realistic instead of beeps
Sound effects, do you mean? Either way, I'm going for an old-school, retro aesthetic :)
@@icoso yeah sounds effects, I like old-school game style two
I got some cat jam music play these notes (made by yours truly) A-B ^D-B ^F# ^F# ^E
Am I missing some sort of reference here? Idk what's going on xD
I think you just gotta put it into a music thingy ;)
By any chance is this another rick roll?
@@ludoremstudios id say so >:D
Damn Impressive af
A little bit much with the jokes, but anyways, awesome music! I'm not a music expert by any means, but there's something off about it. Perhaps some more mixing?
225 views in 25min. GOOD JOB BRO
:D Thanks!
@@icoso thanks for replying to me your one of my favorite devs!
make too many jokes and it'll get rePUNdant!!
insert wheeze laugh here
i like it
Big sad from Bass gang :(
>:)
noOoOoO i liek tHe bAss!1!1!
oh nOoOoOoo!!111!!!
Did your cat ever spawn Satan and bite your finger or is it just my cat
I watched this video...
...in mute.
... no
👍
:D
The music is good but I feel like it's wayyy too loud in-game
Game's looking great btw
Thanks! Will tone it down :)
Cheers! ^^
Pizza belongs on pineapple
oke
Theres so much more to music! Have you heard of scales?
There is indeed! I think they've come up in my 8 years of playing piano, yes yes
first :/
but seriously, good video and i like bass
:o
What plugins did u use to get the sounds for the leads and chords?
Harmless! :)
Damn I wish i know how to make music....
IJacksonOso
Indeed 😎
No disrespect but never gonna give you up version sounds better than your normal song. LOL
do you play the piano ?
I do, yep! :)
what will be the goal of the game i dont really play rogue likes
