I made an up-to-date trailer for Terry's Treasure Trouble!

You know, in case it wasn't clear what kind of game this is.

My only goal with this bot design was "something with missile launchers". Yeah, they're there. Just not in the hands.

I feel like I combined a Patlabor with Briareos.

I don't normally do mockups, but since the mockup is in-engine, I'll make an exception. It helps me figure out whether or not drop-shadows (and enemies that move in the background) would be effective in this level.

...I think the answer is "yes".

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.

Apparently, there are only three time zones between Brazil and the UK.

So, I might as well add some clouds and rain.

What? Did you think all robot maids had jet skis? Of course not. This one takes rides on top of a flying car.

I'm gonna have to draw scene-specific sprites for Pinafore, though. One doesn't simply stand on top of a car and not have that hair flap.

Why does this robot get twin six-shooters? Because these robots can only keep so many missiles, but you never run out of energy blasts from six-shooters.

That, and symmetry, and they look cool.

Still working on it.

There's definitely treasure around here, but it'll still take a while 'til we reach it.

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.

I figure it would be a bit cooler if we started flying at night, then as we cross time zones across the Atlantic, it would be daytime by the time the player reaches their destination in the UK.

...but it doesn't look like "night" yet.
