Shiro Ninja Mayhem

...and now, what I used to make Shiro Ninja Mayhem, for some reason.


Due to some unusual demand, Here's some of the raw graphics and audio from Shiro Ninja Mayhem.
...technically it's from a build labeled Shiro Ninja Mayhem 2, but that never came to be. All that build had going for it was a couple extra moves, and that's it.

Also, if you wonder why some graphics are broken up, well, that's a trade secret. Actually, it's for layering/reference purposes. It made more sense in-game.

...this ought to keep the ninja fans happy.

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.

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.

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.

Sometimes, you have to design a character for one scene only.

...and yes, she has to look kinda like April O'Neil, but not quite.

I think I now understand why that construction vehicle company is called Caterpillar.

...and that's just the wheels for this boss.

All that work doing research on the Amazon Rainforest as a level, and THIS is what I come up with?

...well, I'll change the tiles later. I want the ground to be more foresty, and that means working on a tileset.

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.

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.

If there's one thing I learned from looking at the graphics of NES Batman, it's that they put gray highlights with red shading to make metal look a little rusty.

I'll know if I did my job right when I get to actually making the level.
