Hey everyone,

My name is Antoine, I am a dev and I am currently working on my first indie 2D game made with Unity ! 

Dolus is an introspective journey into the world of grief. You will have to find your way through the five stages of loss in this hand drawn adventure platformer.

Hello World !

I just finished creating a new monster with several bloom effects on only one emission map ! I made a video to show you how I created the shader. Hope it helps :)

Hi ! 

We made a lot of progress this week on all the animations from our main character. We just finished the Death animation ! We would love to have some feedback on what you think about this animation, let us know ! :)

I love the art style! The game looks very intriguing and I'll probably play it when it comes out. Good luck!

Thank you Haz ! I'll let you know when we have a demo or when the game is released :p

The jump animation for today ! And the double-jump of course :51_scream:

We had some fun using the necklace as an active part of the animation.

Try again, back to life ! 

In Dolus, you can actually die. But until you go through all the stages of your own grief, you will come back to face it ! This is your destiny, your only way out. Going through every daemon, every emotion.


What do you think of the respawn animation ? I still have to fix a few light issues but it's already looking pretty good :)

Saturday news ! 

We finalized our attack animation, added some particles emitting light coming out of the necklace and some hits particles for the monster ! 


And as a bonus, here is the dash animation !

Looking really nice. The camera shaking makes it even better.

The game looks awesome so far! Keep it up!

Death Animation for the One Eye Monster Blink

This is what happen when the demons of your unconscious dare resisting your progress !

What do you think of the dissolve effect at the end with the flying particles ?

Thank you DeianT and Demaker for your feedback ! I am so glad you liked what we showed you so far !

We had some fun articulating these chains and animating the whole thing. 

Can you guess what this odd mechanism will do to our sad little fellow ?? 

We will improve on this trap all week long !

I updated the animation from our trap and added some lights. 

But most important of all, we now have a dangerous mystical shiny ball coming out of it ! Make sure to avoid it !

I love your animations, they look amazing, and the background is nice too!!

Thank you barbu :) We will soon share a new version of the background, it will evolve all along the level !

Animation update ! 

The eye is now rolling and you can interact with the remains from the demons of your unconscious before it dissolves.

A lot of progress since the beggining. Looking good.

This is how our little fellow defeated this monstruous trap that stood between him and his redemption. But beware the several others, they may be not that easy to take down !
