Thinking about orange runner 2... The sequel to the "well received" (citation needed) game will probably be more epic than your minds can handle... I'm thinking up plot ideas as we speak, or ... you read... The protagonist will have super powers given to him somehow, He is being chased by the government because they want to make him a weapon or something... and he'll run away... very very fast. I am thinking of adding more defined levels and enemies. Along with a multiplayer and race mode independent of the main game. The protagonist might as well have cool 'lectricity shooting powers too, seeing as he ate batteries in the first... I don't know. Post suggestions because I'm clueless...

Well, I started a little weekend project, and began working on Action Script. My first attempted game came out beyond my expectations. It's called Orange Runner, and well, the main character is a guy, who runs... It's pretty entertaining. I'll post it once I get some of the main bugs worked out...

ActionScript isn't really as hard as I thought! I have a background in programming, so it makes more sense to me than it would to most people I guess. Although... I now have absolutely NO sympathy for people who make crappy flash games, because well... it's just not that hard.

I'll keep you posted on the progress of Orange Runner. Trust me... It's a lot more fun than it looks! =)

EDIT: I just uploaded it, so go and play it!

I was sketching up a main character, and being the unimaginative person I am, He looks almost the same as everyone else, but hey, at least you can still point him out in a crowd.

On the left is the standard badguy, in the center are all of the different body types to swap out for different weapons, and on the right is the draft of my protagonist.

As you can see from his head, I just re-colored the goggles. I can't think of a way to make him look good and have some sort of mask. The actual shape of the body is the same, I just added pockets in random places and a shoulder strap for weapons

Leave suggestions and tell me how to make it better!!!

Well, I haven't been working in flash at all lately, so... the project I had planned is a bust. but I've started a new one with no hope of completion. After watching Intruder Returns on the main page, I've decided to whip up a little action movie of my own. Yesterday I started on character design. I made a few soldiers and gave them guns, and began experimenting with walk cycles. I was then very unpleasantly reminded that I suck at animating... but I'll figure it out somehow.

Oh... and if you look closely, their hands are open, the guns are just floating there. I'm counting on nobody noticing that in the final animation, because I really don't want to draw anything.

Exams are finally over, and with that, I can finally start on my new project. Although it is only my second, and nobody is really reading this at the moment, I am making a movie trailer with Nal1200's
Rampancy stage 4

I don't really know what the video is gonna' be about yet, but i'll let you know...
