Starting work on a new game Penguin Power

jamie_c

I've started working on a 'new' game and posted some animation tests for my walk cycle and three idle animations (blink, foot tap, and angry squint). I put new in quotes for two reasons, because this is actually a new take on the first game I began creating with Gamesalad about three years ago. Of course at the time I didn't have the knowledge I needed to make the game the way I wanted too so it was shelved while I spent time learning Gamesalad. Now it's best if I start over for scratch, I'd hate to even look at the way I had started it three years ago! The second reason is this game is a sequel to the game of the same name I submitted long, long ago to the UDevGames contest in 2002.

Feedback is welcome.

Looks nice and smooth.

Looking good. Using particles for the dust kick up? Works well.

@neoman, @NipaDidIt, @Lovejoy, @imjustmike, thanks guys. Yes the dust kick is a little particle effect.

The little dust particle is a very nice and subtle touch.
