Kazooa's Woods

Kazooa's Woods puts the player in control of a little girl named Lucy, who has to rid the woods of the Wood-Stocks employed by Kazooa The Seagull who has taken over the forest for her own... A little bit like Wario's Woods, only featuring different characters and such.

Kazooa's Woods will be based on the NES version of Wario's Woods (with the soundtrack from the NTSC version), and this game is intended to be my swan song, meaning the last title of mine to ever be developed with the Game Maker program. After this game I may very well retire myself from using that program, at least when it comes to making games.

Who knows, when I get this game done, and as N64 homebrew development libraries start to mature and become more usable, I may consider porting this game to the Nintendo 64. The code would obviously need to be rewritten from scratch since there's hardly any tools available to aid in the creation of homebrew games for the platform that doesn't depend on the official, and illegal Nintendo 64 SDK.

The download link can be found below. At the moment this game is in quite a primitive state. The main body of the game has mostly been defined, but I'm still struggling with actually figuring out how best to implement the puzzle gameplay mechanics. Hopefully I'll be getting some assistance with this, since I've never made any sort of puzzle games before. I have made early attempts at making puzzle games, but those just simply didn't work out due to my limited knowledge at the time. This game may be my first and last one to ever be a puzzle game of any kind.
