Three reasons to be going after the treasure:
...well... This is awkward.
Yes, I CAN make an animated background within a matte, with a shifting color palette. However, I realize this doesn't look like lava, no matter which way you shake it.
...the effect's cool, though.
I made an up-to-date trailer for Terry's Treasure Trouble!
You know, in case it wasn't clear what kind of game this is.
Animation testing, again.
I map animations to keyboard buttons, then figure out the AI. Character movement is tied to the animations before adding the AI.
...and that's why I think a fighting-game mode can be programmed in this game.
When I was young and ambitious, I tried making a game called XSF Force. One element you might find (but not implemented) is this guy's talking head and body.
He's a reporter named Mr. Snyder.
I could reuse these GFX, if I clean 'em up a bit.
One of the bonus stages will be a top-down stage where you try to stop the Demolition robots from smashing the summer home.
...but I don't know whether or not failing a bonus stage should "count". I think the worst bonus stages in gaming are mandatory.
That boss is now done, and implemented.
I can safely say I've completed half of the main game now, even though it's just the first three levels and the second-to-last.
Time to do something else.
Welcome to Space.
...not much going on here, is there?
If you've had your fill of games where you play as elephants and blue hedgehogs, this might be for you.
...and I haven't advertised this the best, but it's coming.
