Rock Run: A Game in Development

[Buster's Uncle]

For multiplayer, I'm thinking I've got the perfect thing for the other player icon - Innocent Teddy, a perfectly innocent example of a back and white teddy bear...

oh... and Dale....

If you ever make a Facebook cow clicker... ever, I will get in my command chopper with my army of green clad ninjas to Aussie land to "re-educate" you

:p

No MP.  Can't be bothered programming it.

Though, it I can get onto Steam, it wouldn't be hard through Steamworks.

What else?

You're pointing me at the red door, aren't you?

The spiders and the butterflies really ought to bob or flap - would alternating frames be practical?  Wouldn't take me five minutes to supply.

The thumbs up was for the butterfly.   

Yeah, was gunna ask for a spider bob and fly flap.  Like you say, only needs one more frame.

[Buster's Uncle]

Time me...

[Buster's Uncle]

A little more than five minutes.  Hmph.

Too slow.   

[Buster's Uncle]

I messed up and had to do the spider twice.  Looks better like that, though.

[Buster's Uncle]

Hmm.  Action frame for Chill Penguin?  I could make his flippers flap and feet move a little...

[Buster's Uncle]

Seems like the bobbing and flapping look best at a sedate 400ms a frame.  Maybe 300, but 200 is pretty frantic - no lower, I think.

[Buster's Uncle]

A second frame of Chill w/wingtips and feet moved slightly and helmet light brightened a  little.  My complements to the original logo artist, BTW.

I guess I'm done until one of us has an idea or you need tweaking on something?  Feedback welcome.  I enjoy doing these sorts of little art jobs for people, as you well know.

Much could be reimagined if you wanted to make different levels look different.

This is with both frames at 300ms.

Incidentally, I just thought of a practical use for you of the .gifs I've posted.  When you release the game, make a page on the BBR site promoting it -I don't have to explain why that's a good idea, I think- you can use the animated gifs there.  In fact, once I understand enough about how this game works, I could make you a game screen .gif cycling through a few seconds of play to lead the page with.  I already have all the graphical elements...

In fact, I have an idea for another little phone game if you want to follow up in that vein later...

Looks like you forgot to shave today, Buncle.
