Pop Quiz!


When making this game, there are things I have to cut. One idea for this game was to use trivia questions so obtuse, you’d need the internet or a wide knowledge of things that existed in the ’90s and before to solve them. I’ve decided against this for the final game.
These ones involve some copyrighted works for references.

So, let’s test your knowledge with deleted questions. Okay?

It doesn't matter if you're drawing in pixels, by hand, or with polygons. Hands are hard to draw, period.

So it begins.

It doesn't help that the three forms share parts, but not body arrangements, but nobody's perfect.

...hopefully, people will see this guy as an homage, and not as infringement.

No, this is not the final boss. This is the boss of the last mainline level. There's a difference.

Also, I'm so glad I can pull off stuff like this. There'll be two more forms, though.

Meow.

Tigers are difficult to animate, especially since they have two joints for their hind legs.

Well, it kinda resembles a tiger.

Part of the debugging experience is making sure enemies don't spawn in walls.

...but this is a great way to show off the shotgun in action.

Two screenshots.

Also not the final boss. Again, I may have gone a bit too far in a few places.

Now that the rigs for this boss are done, I'd better get around to animating them.

There. The hand is drawn.

...now I've got four more angles for this hand to be drawn in, then I'll copy-paste and mirror them for the other hand.

Also, I've added a timer for scoring and convention reasons.

Too much?

There are only so many ways to draw starbases, and all of them require a window into space. This one happens to also be a factory.

What do you do when one enemy type you used before doesn't show up well on your new level's background?

Draw new graphics.

It's a good thing the previous variation was already skeletal, so I can just give it skin and swim trunks.
