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.

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.

How did you expect a backpack to talk?

Well, I got the brain in a jar, and finished making the level.

Now, what's that brain gonna do? I figure it'll electrify itself if you get into its personal space, and send out two robot minions after you, but still, what else?

I'm prepping up a build to show to people.

There are a lot of rudimentary Visual Novel-styled cutscenes throughout. This one's for the end, because the game's not finished yet.

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.

The First Two Bosses

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.

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.

Maybe this thing needs to be in a big jar.
