Making A Cinematic Platform Game

Hello to who found this post. I’m making a cinematic platform game based on the famous classics like Prince of Persia. This will be one of my biggest projects I’ve ever done. The game will include amazing levels, actions and of course the storyline. This will be quite a long journey so I will be sharing my experience throughout the forum.

What is Cinematic Platformer?
It is a subgenre of platform game which is distinguished by the realism mechanic compared to other platform games. This type focuses on the realistic movements of the character more than unnatural actions or magic stuff.


Development Timeline

May 25th 2022 - The Beginning
Started off with the 2D camera and flip-screen system. This truly gave the feeling of cinematic just like you were watching one intense scene of a movie.

June 26th 2022 - Character Movement

Feel free to leave your thought about the project. It could be useful for the development.


Update 4/14/2023
The project is abandoned, but there is a chance I will revive it in the future.

Hope it’s multiplayer, or else you’ll need to make it INSANELY good.

I’m also thinking about it, but the game will mainly be singleplayer as it works better with storytelling. Good idea anyway, I will consider about it later.
