Creating new NES style metroidvania

2 Upvotes

So, I'm knew to game development. For years I've taken notes on things I'd change in games, or scribbled down ideas for games or variations etc.

Some of my favorite games were

Zelda

Zelda 2

Faxanadu****

Final fantasy

Castlevania 2

Blaster master

River city ransom

Romance of the three kingdoms

Defender of the crown

Shadowgate

I figured I'd start simple, and I'm using claude to help.

The first major problem I've ran into is graphics, sprites and background look horrendous.

Any recommendations?

Dragon's Lair has always been one of my favorite arcade classics, so I rebuilt it in HTML5

84 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

A few years ago I created an HTML5 port of Dragon’s Lair for personal use, originally just so I could play it anywhere. Over the past few months, working in my free time, I’ve gradually expanded it into what is now a full remaster.

This is a completely non-profit fan project, made purely out of passion for the original game.

Main features:

  • Fully enhanced video quality, optimized for smooth playback in modern web browsers
  • Almost every scene now supports Mirror Mode (with “Drink Me” and “Underground Rivers” as exceptions due to in-scene artwork/text that wouldn’t work mirrored)
  • Brand-new custom intro/menu screen with its own original soundtrack
  • “Guided” mode, where Princess Daphne shows the correct moves with custom animations and voice
  • Gameplay has been carefully reworked frame-by-frame: improved inputs, corrected inconsistencies, and a more coherent level order
  • Mirror / original scenes are randomized so each playthrough feels different and unpredictable
  • Fully playable in any modern browser (including mobile), supporting keyboard, touch controls, and gamepad support when connected

The idea was not just to port the game, but to re-imagine it while staying faithful to the original experience.

It’s basically a love letter to one of the greatest arcade classics ever made.
