It's been a long time! Thankfully
I have a good solid update for everyone.
NEW GAME: Launch the Drache! V2
It's another unexpected game! About a week ago I decided to recreate
Launch the Drache, using my three years of experience since the original
to give it a major makeover. While it is the same game, it has many,
MANY improvements and new features over the original. Check it out
on the games page by all means!
No other news to report at this time. While there's tons of work being
done on SuperDanny 2, I'm still not ready to reveal anything yet.
Later for that. |

Well, as life would have
it this update took a lot longer than anticipated. As always there's
lots of game progress being done though, but I don't have any previews
ready at the moment. So what is new with this update...
Site related news is I canned the "Misc" button and replaced
it with a "Home" button. Not only am I still lacking ideas
of what could go in the Misc section, I get the feeling that some
people miss that you can click the banner to return to the homepage...
but anyway, that's not very exciting.
The good part of this update is the example I mentioned last update
is now finished and added to the examples section. If you're struggling
to figure out how gamepad support in Game Maker works, take a look
by all means! |

Finally, not all of the
guides pages are under construction! Thanks to SuperDanny, Star Man
has walkthroughs in video format
on YouTube. Star Man is a hard game, but SuperDanny proves that it
can be completed in under 22 minutes. If you've been having trouble
with the game, check it out!
Also in this update, I have changed a few small but important details
around the site.
Progress Report: Since the last update, SuperDanny 2 has received
six new normal enemies and engine improvements, while Nazo Nazo continues
to grow in ideas and has received some very important engine upgrades.
I've also been working on a new example, which should be done in the
near future. |

Over a year since the door opened and about seven months since an
update, I think it's about time for another update. And not just any
update, a BIG update. And it just so happens that a BIG update is
just what I have!
NEW GAME: Star Man
Yes, a new game out of nowhere! A little over a month ago I discovered
that Strider of Fangamez.net was
holding a game creation contest, so I created Star Man in order to
enter. Head over to the games section and take a look!
New Resources: In graphics we have three new Icon packs, which
contain Robot Master mugshots from Mega Man 2, 3 and 4. In audio I've
zipped together the collection of Mega Man V sounds that I ripped
for use in Star Man. Enjoy!
And that's not all. Due to the lack of updates, I've decided to announce
all my upcoming games! This way, if there isn't an update for the
next seven months, you at least know what I'm working on.
SuperDanny 2: The big project I've been working on since late
December. It is in fact so big that I predict a release date probably
somewhere in early 2008. Yes, that's a very long time to wait, but
I think the finished product will be well worth it. I'll release more
information and screen shots later, but for now I'll just say that
I'm cutting no corners from making this as perfect of a Mega Man fan
game as I possibly can. Look forward to it!
Nazo Nazo: The only game to survive from the ancient screenshot.
It's a puzzle, Sokoban style game, which will be the first original
release for Blyka's Door. It will also include a fully functional
level editor.
????: I won't say what the title for this game is yet, as it's
currently in the planning stage and behind SuperDanny 2 and Nazo Nazo
in priority. However, I think my goal for it is a realistic one and
I'm very excited about it's possibilities, so I don't think I'll have
to cancel it. For now I'll just say it's another Mega Man game.

No new solid content for
the first update of the new year, but I did go through the site and
change some things for the better. As for project status, the games
from the blurry screenshot haven't had any work except the one in
the bottom right has made much progress. I've halted work on that
for awhile though to work on a much bigger project, in which I've
been very busy with since late December 2006.
Also, I re-uploaded SuperDanny with some corrected bugs and fixed
up graphics, and the Skull Man Example with some clearer explanations
and fixed bugs. |

No, I'm not dead, nor did
I lock the door. My excuse for not updating in several months is...
Well I'll skip past excuses and onto the update.
For solid content, I updated the resource page with a tile sheet for
the NES Super Mario Bros.! It's complete with all of the game's non-animated
graphics.
Also, to prove I have been doing something in the programming department,
here's a blurry screenshot of 4 Work-In-Progress
games. All of these games are in very early stages of development
(and yes, the one in the bottom-right corner will have graphical changes),
but they're all in progress, so at least one of them will become
a future release for Blyka's Door.
2006.05.27
Blyka's Door opens!
Come in and enjoy the collection of games, examples, resources, and
a variety of other things related to Game Maker. Though the site lacks
major content at the moment, I hope it will grow into something more
respectable in the future. |
