Attack of the Giant Mutant Lizard
7 years ago

A couple changes. Most notably, two more monsters. There's also a trailer which is already slightly outdated.


A lot has changed since the last update. But writing is hard, so I’ll make this brief.

The biggest change since the last article is the two new monsters:

These work differently than the original lizard. Instead of having a tail that can grasp things, these creatures both have their own way of picking up and throwing objects.

This guy, somewhat inspired by frogs or whatever, can use its tongue to catch people and pick up cars (That’s what frogs do, right?).

It can then hold an object in its mouth and launch it at enemies. By holding down the mouse button, you can keep an object in your mouth and crosshairs and a power meter will appear so you can aim and launch.resized

The next one is a bit trickier to work with, but at least it can fly…

Without a stretchy tongue or a prehensile tail, this thing can only pick up whatever it can reach with its little bird legs. Hold the mouse button down, and this thing will use one of its talons to try to grab whatever the mouse cursor is on, as long as it’s within reach.

Release the mouse button, and the monster will toss the object in the direction of the cursor. The strength of the throw is determined by the distance between the cursor and the monster. It’s not perfect though. It’s kind of tough to throw anything upwards. I may need to make some adjustments to it in the future.

Also, I made a trailer, which is already outdated due to slight changes I made to the UI. But it’s got music and everything.

I have added rewards for quests so that villagers can give you something in return for your hard work helping them. 🥳

I want to know - what's your favourite quest reward?

Back in my art school days I used to ride the 710 COPSA line from Parque Del Plata to Montevideo almost everyday. This is the Marcopolo Viaggio G4 Mercedes Benz model from the late 80s, one of the older bus models that was running on the line.

These are background sprites I've created for a game I'm working on at school ^w^ Click on the post to see how the sprites connect. You won't regret it! (personally, I think it's pretty heheh)

Drawn in Piskel using my mouse. Whaddya think?

I worked so hard to get all four of them to the end safely, but then...
