Bruxólico - игра-платформер для ZX Spectrum

After 8 months of production, I present to you Bruxólico, an action platform game for 8-bit computers with varied gameplay segments, such as manual or forced vertical or horizontal screen scrolling simulation, boss battles, and even a simple shmup segment. This is a project that I have been conceiving for many years, maturing ideas and planning, until finally starting its production in August 2022. It is my most ambitious and extensive 8-bit project to date, using 3 sides of cassette tape to have more levels, enemies, bosses, music, code, and overall content.

"Bruxólico" is a special project for me for two main reasons: first, because in it I articulate the cultural references inherited from Franklin Cascaes and local folklore, something I have wanted to do for a long time. And second, because in it I fully materialize my idea of expanding the production of the work beyond the game, producing many images, illustrations, and ultimately a book with a detailed narrative. 

The idea is that the book and the game complement each other, and although they can be experienced separately, only by playing the game and reading the illustrated book can one have the complete narrative in detail. Only time will tell if I have achieved my goals, but I believe I am on a good and interesting path to make my video game production richer and more artistic.
