Try and compete with THAT.

Edit: Just playing around with the levels design quickly before making the assets.
Edit 2:
Introducing player 1 .Maybe player ,2,3,4 if I run out of time..


Edit3:
Enter player 2!


Edit 4:
Going to redraw the floor tile tomorrow. Not happy with this current iteration.

Working on color and basic ideas for now. The concept is that four dudes are trying to knock each other to the bottom of the screen while building up higher. Not sure where the blocks will come from, and I think I'll put a ground in instead of having the mockup already up in the sky.

Not excited about the colors..but I figure they are in the Easter "mood". But if anyone is willing to help me with some color ideas, please feel free!

In the mean time I will be playing with the GUI.

Started getting some basic tiles.
Don't know exactly what I am going to do with them yet.

Those look great guys.

Flyguy, In terms of colour I think it just needs a bit more contrast with some of the darker values. I made an edit, although I also made the colours more vibrant, which is just my preference.


Peyton, really love those colours. Can't wait to see more.

Thanks a lot Damian, I think your colors are an improvement, I agree that the more saturated colors appeal to the gamer in me.. I guess I was trying to stick with that Easter spirit. I like what you did and will have to go back to the drawing board.

This is Rocket Riders, a game concept where you have to be the last man standing, bumping your oponents into obstacles to take them out. I'm still refining many aspects, so fell free to throw ideas.



Obs: It started for this challenge, but now I'm seriously thinking about making this game.
