Comic

As I went to Expozine today and saw a bunch of very talented comic book and illustration artists, I kinda missed doing comics and stuff. So at 11h30pm, I started making this. An hour later, it's done. It's crap, but I made a comic and am very happy about that.

ABE: Anything Beats Everything Pre-Prototype Screens

Copypasta from TIGForums

 

I present to you, in its early early early state....





Anything Beats Everything is a game I'm making in Flash, in ActionScript 3.

I needed a small, simple game project to complete on my own. So I thought of this energetic game concept and made a non-playable prototype two nights ago, showing lots of colors and a variety of simple but colorful graphics.

Here's how ABE's played. You start with a certain time, say 30 seconds.



Basic instructions on what to look for appear quickly as happy hardcore music starts playing.



Then the screen fills up with animated items, one of which fits the description. Timer starts counting down



If you click on the wrong object, you lose time. If you get the right item, you gain a bit of time. The goal is to survive as long as possible as the "levels" get harder. And by harder I mean more animated chaos, more items, smaller items, smaller differences, more craziness.





Hopefully I'll have things animated to the beat of the music and will achieve a fast-paced, hyper game of chaos and observation.

More news on that as soon as I can manage to
a) learn enough ActionScript to code the randomization of the levels, the timer and the score counter
b) find someone to tell me how to do it
c) find someone who can do it for me  Who, Me?

So yeah, not much to show for now, you have to see it in motion...
(>>> right here >>> http://dom2d.squarespace.com/storage/games/ABE5.swf Smiley)
and imagine a cool beat to it. (It's not playable yet, it's just a quick mock-up...)



I'm thinking of having a WIDE variety of items in there. For now I have those:
Bacon, bird, carrot, clown, birdman, mummy, death, flame, tomato, shovel, cake, RUNMAN, masks, leaf, cookie, skull, fishbones, nazi helmet, dollar bill, sandglass, cheese, alien, snowman, robot. But I plan on adding random stuff like Obama, Eiffel Towers, Lego Bricks, my head, planets, Yetis, Vampires, Hitlers, gorillas, nukes, coins, flags, ink stains, Hulks, rocketmen, pirates, pin-up ladies, baseball cards, etc.

I'm hoping to get a bunch of artists to participate once it's easy to add in new "levels". If you're ever interested to have, say, your RunMan in there, or your Spelunker, your Viking, or anything really, I'll keep you posted.


Cheers!

Move Out of Skull Island : Screenshot and assets!

Since it's Talk like a Pirate Day, I thought it'd be a good time to release some pictures of the game!

I also made a mock-up screenshot of the game right here:
