I'm doing Fligth of the conchords,Lost or scrubs.

I think scrubs would be the most fitting one.

If I get around to doing a challenge (it's been a while ) I'm doing Married With Children. That show kicked ass.

It was. Al Bundy might have been bad, but at least he was no Archie Bunker.

I had Dexter in mind when I created this challenge. Dexter would make such an awesome adventure game!

I wonder if I'll get round to making this one. Good luck to everyone!

Reo, I would love to see a FoTC pixel lol. But I don't think many people actually know what they are. :S

I was thinking about entering but I'm not sure if I would even have time to even complete a pixel this week, been very busy.

grrr I hate you...this really makes me wanna join the challenge now and make some kind of Lucas Arts adventure game mock up...Especially since I was just playing through 5 Days A Stranger and thinking how much the graphics could be improved.

My big problem is a hardly watch any TV anymore...most stuff is just pure sh*t...maybe I should just pick a random show from the TV guide...

just quickly looking through what shows are on...I'd have to say Inspector Rex could be an interesting idea...but chances are I probably still wont end up entering...but Adventure game mock-up is definitely on my list of things to do

sidenote: can you actually enter your own challenge o_o

tl;dr: incoherent rambling about adventure games and TV shows written at 4am

I would suggest you to improve the protrait... it doens't look anything like the original JD... also, it's a bit crappy and lacks of anatomy...
Why don't you try to look at a JD picture while you are making it??

I guess this isn't too bad... cleaned up the background tiles a bit. Needs a cliff on the right and the hero, of course. Maybe shadows...

Hi

I hope I understood topic of this challange rigthly... and reference pic, yet: http://img.aktualne.centrum.cz/37/61/376101-star-dance-kdy-hvezdy-tanci.jpg

I loved Dexter, it ended up being one of the few TV shows I'd actually watch (along with ER  and The Shield). You couldn't have picked a better format for the game "Dexter" than the Indiana Jones game. It's perfect!

Still wip,but im getting there.
Portrait refuses to look like J.D(no matter what I try).

Other TV shows I'd like to see in this contest (and I can't do due to some time constraints) are:

  • The A-Team
  • V
  • MacGuyver
  • Firefly
Good job so far gang!

lol, an idea for the ultimate game;

Howard Moon : Explorer

Just imagine the headlines; 'Howard Moon, Colon, Explorer'. Got a ring to that don't it?
Colon explorer?! I think that's got the wrong ring to it.
