Puzzle Beat'em Up - 2013 - Gamemaker Studio

This is an old prototype game based on Hideki Kamiya (the Japanese game director of Bayonetta, Okami, etc.) and the way he uses Twitter every day.

The game is a mix of rhythm, memory, and beat’em‑up mechanics.
I rewrote the combo system twice and had to deal with low‑level programming concepts that were difficult to grasp with my programming skills at the time.

Aside from Kamiya’s sprite, I used placeholder assets to quickly prototype my systems.

Here is a video explaining the system (French with English subtitles)
