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?

Two screenshots.

I guess I can show these things on April Fools day.

They are NOT going into the Robot Maid game, but they're still in the code.

Well, finding glitches was bound to happen.

In this case, with a scrolling boss, the player's trapped on the left side of the screen until there's no solid block there.

I'd better fix that, THEN shrink the gap behind the boss.

Don't worry, I backed up the other one, but I'm going with this for the alien spacecraft. Part UFO, part retrofuturist rocket, and only three tentacles for the tripod look.

"Sir, is the Super Scaler effect really necessary for a cutscene like this?"

"I coded it, didn't I?"

If you think YOU're asking "Is it done yet? Is it done yet? Is it done yet?" then just imagine how I feel every time I have to add little details and bug fixes.

...I'd better make a trailer or pitch reel.

Do you know how hard it is to get THIS shot?

Like I said, I'm making level thumbnails for the Level Select screen. Also, this gives you a good idea how big the max health bar is.

...another fine mess you got yourself into.

I'd better stop sharing these cutscene moments. I'm almost there.

Here. I've got a trailer ready. (...assuming it loads.)

Now I've gotta shop it around, and upload it onto YouTube.

Back in the old days, you could just flash between these two frames to make dynamic lighting, to show something's flashing in front of her.

I'm just gonna use the other frame to indicate the lights are on. No flashing required.
