In my game, I programmed a robot to chop down trees in real time. Yes, I know what it looks like, but still, maybe I've gone too far in a few places.
...and I HAVE to specify "in my game". I'm not a monster.
This is literally one of the first cutscenes, after the first level. Like I said, I'd rather do Sega CD-style cutscenes, but this will do.
...it's also the most complete-looking cutscene right now. I thought you'd like a look.
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.
The Saw-Pod is a machine for lumber work. It uses a bigger laser chainsaw, can cover the user's face, and has a built-in jetpack for those hard-to-reach places.
You'll have to beat them up in-game, though.
I think I now understand why that construction vehicle company is called Caterpillar.
...and that's just the wheels for this boss.
As part of the game's canon, there's been an ongoing war in the Amazon Rainforest. It's a war between the loggers and the environmentalists.
That being said, these trees have been "shaved off" for in-universe and future gameplay reasons.
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.
In case nobody noticed before, a lot of elements of the Robot Maid game come from the Shiro Ninja games, and ideas I would've done for a sequel. This guy is gonna behave like a similar guy from Shiro Ninja Mayhem, but fit this game's art style.
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.
Someone might ask, "Why laser chainsaws?"
Others might ask, "Why are you just repurposing the old DemoBot sprites again?"
It just makes more sense for DemoBots to be using laser chainsaws in the Rainforest. They're built for any job with a helmet.
