Convention centers are kinda sad without people in them.

The real trick, however, is figuring out the layers. Should I do a big strip of crowds, or silhouettes of other booths, or what? It's a 2D platform game. Making environments can be tough.

I realize some players just want to play the game and see the story, while others may actually want to use those revival items, so here's a little compromise for you all.

Also, yes, I NEED to put on that "Pro" flag everywhere.

Just a reminder. It's coming on the 16th, assuming nothing goes wrong.

...and some banners to complete the look of the convention.

I don't think I can legally call it RoboCon. Techno-Con might also be taken, but I don't know.

Somewhere in this game is a robot convention. It'll need a large variety of enemies (and a miniboss) because our robot maid will destroy the merchandise on display just to keep one kid safe.

...but it's okay, since no humans are gonna get hurt, right?

You know how some anime shows like to turn characters into chibis for over-the-top reactions?

Normally, I'd avoid doing this, since that's like a Disney Princess doing a wild take. Since Sam is more like a '90s anime character, she gets a free pass.

Just wanted to try out what I mentioned earlier.

Also, I replaced Curly Sue with a character from a film directed by Chris Columbus, but has nothing to do with John Hughes.

The best way to let everyone play with whatever controller they want is to let players test it out, reconfigure it, and let them test it again.

...it's a bit messy, since this is a game that should support two players.

Sorry I haven't been updating anyone on Robot Maid P-NA-4. I took a big break from that, and played some other games instead.

I've still got work to do on it, like making a third level and its accompanying enemies.

I hope you appreciate what I go through for pointless details like this.

I don't plan on going this crazy too much, though.
