UPDATE: I will have a new video soon of Cairo block 1-1 to show. It's the redone portion of the desert area from the Alpha. I added a portion where you enter a pyramid from the outside and I am recreating the sandstorm and heat wave effects I had in the stage before.
On a side note. I am working on the final portion of Stoker's Fable (Helsing's Prologue stage) now that I have created a Coppola Vlad sprite I am pretty proud of. Vlad doesn't turn into a bat, but he has wolf, rats, and beast forms. The special attacks are a work in progress.
I should have a cool preview vid of the boss fight in the next couple of weeks.
