Enviornment: The Idea

I've been thinking about making a game for a while now and with the project 3 game proposal it was great being able to develop one of my ideas. For project 2 I am going to develop the enviornment for what I hope to be my project 3 game, if that doesn't turn out then I will use what I make here to develop the game solo.

The type of enviornment I am looking at is a desert. The basic story of the game is that the world now lives together within one city, Earth City. Outside the city walls is just desert and ruins of what used to be the world as we know it today. It is this enviornment that I wish to create for project 2. I was considering making Earth City but I want to stick to the shoot 'em up enviornment where most of the gameplay happens.

Broadway: Character Sheet

Right so I figured I'd do a quick post of an image I've made up. Bit of a character sheet for Broadway, a collection of a range of different actions and poses etc. Enjoy!

Environment: The Sewer

I was getting really sick of looking at Broadway floating around in the white space dimension so I took a time out from animating to create an environment for him. His home is based in the sewer so using inspiration from both Crash Bandicoot - the sewer levels and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles I made up this image: 



Incorporated aspects: stone tablet floor, brick walls and of course pipes and tunnels. 

Broadway: Animation Cycles

Been desigining as well as making my animation cycles for Broadway. Different motions I have decided on are walk, jump, attack one and an attack two which will be like a special move.

Attack one will be a stab motion as laid out here:


Alterations to this will more than likely be made when I work with it in flash but you get the point.

Jump: Had a look at the way his body will move to when jumping. Also created a new face for the jump where Broadway looks up to the sky!

Attack Two: Special move. Will again include the use of his sword but not too sure what I will do. Something will come to me I'm sure when I come to animating it up.

Walk Cycle: See previous post.
