Yeah so i'm looking for something quite bold and stylized, clean lines etc. Not too moody/atmospheric, still playful and cute (if that helps)

Any awesome illustrators who specialize in game box art/capsule art? (payed commission)
I'm looking to update my capsule art for Lelu.
Would really help if you shared this around :)
Please DM or email - jamierowandesign@gmail.com if you're interested or know anyone :)

Thanks! A lot of it is 3d models with some shader trickery. The backgrounds and tiles are just regular sprites.
Iโ€™m not sure how best to learn apart from just to do! Iโ€™m by no means an expert so I tried to find a simple style that I could realistically make lots of assets for, hope that helps!

Huge thanks to @nocapsbb.bsky.social for the video on the lelu demo :)
So cool to see a video about something I've worked on from one of your favourite channels

Yeah you might be right. The stun stars should be enough. Currently they donโ€™t last the full stun length so that was probably not helping readability

02.12.2025 18:36 ๐Ÿ‘ 1 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

yeah great ideas. i also might add a "?" emote above the monkeys head, which in general is used as a "stunned" kinda thing with some other characters.

02.12.2025 18:08 ๐Ÿ‘ 0 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Ahh interesting. Yeah I wonder how I can make it more obvious to reflect their projectiles?
As for the cymbal monkeys, I think that would be a pretty easy fix. Maybe some kind of constant "flash" or "shake" to know that they're vulnerable.

Hey Sam. Thanks!
Which enemies/bosses in particular? Or was it just the boss at the end of the demo?
Not too sure what I can do about the dash, people will spam if they need to ๐Ÿ˜‚

hey sam, thanks for playing, glad you enjoyed!
i used gamemaker for the engine, and blender for all the 3d models

Like I said yesterday, you are DEFINITELY better off just downloading it from Steam and playing it yourself. This is my gameplay of it, in case you can't or don't wanna.

One of the main mechanics of Lelu actually came about by accident - and lots of playtesting - the perfect charge parry/reflect (not sure what else to name it)
