Bastille Devlog 2 & Late March Update

Mar 25, 2026

Hello hello everyone. I am making major progress with Secrets of Bastille Demo 2. I been working on learning how to write JS plugins with the help of ChatGPT as well as other resources so I can start working on my systems from scratch.

What I done so far was recreate a mini-map like structure for 7 dungeons. You would move kinda like a board-game esque kind of way and random events will happen. Such as battles, shops, text.

I have gotten my custom UI for the dungeon runs to work correctly but will possibly work on the battle one next. For my games I would like to use the simplistic ui style of the Dragon Quest/Warrior games.

Hoping to work on the upgrade system this weekend and post screenshots in the next update.

Aside from that, I been cracking through learning C++ and decided to take a look at Game Maker Studio as I love the ease of a GUI-based, drag and drop game engine such as RPG Maker for my hobby. Another one I would take a look at soon would be Eldiron for me to work on my own classic RPGS.

I began my 2nd C64 text adventure game but this time its a semi-horror game inspired by the Arkham Horror series.

Anyways stay tune for cool things to come! I’ll upload my c64 games in the downloads section soon!
