Still working on it.
There's definitely treasure around here, but it'll still take a while 'til we reach it.
There are a lot of robot arms in a prosthetics factory. They flail about, so don't get too close, or they'll hurt you.
What's taking me so long? Designing assets for the volcano level. Also, allergies.
Boom boom acka-lacka-lacka boom, boom boom acka-lacka boom boom.
A step-by-step process for bigger sprites.
GM Studio 1 works like Windows XP's Paint, but with nicer features. As such, even a lefty like me can learn to draw right-handed with a Line tool.
Three reasons to be going after the treasure:
So, what's the secret to drawing a car?
1. Just draw the car from profile, back, and possibly front.
2. Dig out any Hot Wheels product for reference.
3. Use the reference to figure out how to draw those in-between angles.
Here I am, still trying to push the limits. I'm pretty sure there's a shader for Mode 7 out there, but this is what I've been working with.
Also, because of limitations, red flashing floors generate force fields you can bump into.
...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.
Robots fresh off the assembly line from the prosthetics factory.
I call the ones that crawl "Gwendy", after the dolls from Small Soldiers.
I might have gone too far in a few places, and not enough in others.
