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.

Not the most mindblowing thing I've done so far, but I wanted to try it out.

That sounds nice and all, but I think I'd better write what I know, and not just go with the poll's results for making my game. No offense.

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.

...well... This is awkward.

Yes, I CAN make an animated background within a matte, with a shifting color palette. However, I realize this doesn't look like lava, no matter which way you shake it.

...the effect's cool, though.

I'm gonna give this game an animated billboard.

Yes it IS unusually low-res, just like real billboards.

If you're worried about whether or not a setting doesn't feel realistic in a platform game's camera angle, treat it like it's a stage play. They're never that realistic, but we buy into them all the same.

The only things that carried over from the original sketch for little Timmy are his dapper outfit (which kinda makes him look like Richie Rich) and Astro Boy's nose.

Adding that bit of chub from the sprite made his face even more like Astro's.

I think we might need more levels, but I could be wrong.

Either way, Christmas Sweater Simulator 2 is on its way.

When doing mugshots, sometimes, it's a combination of both my initial sketch and my sprite.

I'm committed to his ridiculous head shape.
