Sometimes, you have to design a character for one scene only.

...and yes, she has to look kinda like April O'Neil, but not quite.

Concept art time!

Early on, Tiel had a backpack because in the fic she was originally created for, she was going on an adventure along with Rick. That's why I was kinda attached to her.

Almost there...

There's gonna be a second driving section without walls later.

All that work doing research on the Amazon Rainforest as a level, and THIS is what I come up with?

...well, I'll change the tiles later. I want the ground to be more foresty, and that means working on a tileset.

This is the driving sequence in action.

I don't have any original music for that part, and I can imagine that passing-through-flags sound getting annoying after a while.

Maybe this thing needs to be in a big jar.

Well, I got the brain in a jar, and finished making the level.

Now, what's that brain gonna do? I figure it'll electrify itself if you get into its personal space, and send out two robot minions after you, but still, what else?

Well, I was looking through some old files, and found some cool stuff.

How did you expect a backpack to talk?

Strangely enough, of all the games I've made .exes of, this is the one that STILL works on my current computer. And sometimes, I realize I made some poor decisions in game design with this one.
