http://www.pixeljoint.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1519&PN=%201 - A more indepth description of the world

I want to see sprites of the jungle variety.

Banana throwing monkies,  rampaging rhinos, snakes, etc.

Boss character is a monkeyfied version of Sedge. I'd like to see some reference to his characters made into himself. Basically, I am keeping the descriptions fairly basic so as to get a good amount of interpretations from everyone.

Keep your colours simple so we can easily edit. Animations will be required.

Anything else I should mention? Post it here.

The smaller sprite of sedge looked tighter. The shading on the bigger one is a little bit too random and he doesnt look very manacing.

Just a suggestion about Sedge's boss moves: Perhaps he could act like Donkey Kong? It would be a cool reference to the originals of videogames I reckon.

i was thinking he could have a swing move when he jumps of screen then 2 seconds later he swings on a vhine

Alright. I love snakes, andddddd suck at characters. BUT. I'll try make myself a snake and stick it out here, see if I can't put myself in somehow.

(EDDDIT. AH. I -DO- have a snake. Here. Maaaybe that's what it will look like... sort of?

Background = terrible)

AND. Are the tiles gonna be metroid-like, in that there's the five-pixel layer of surface, then the fade to pure black? It makes life easy, and actually looks quite nice.

Yes. We must wait on Sedge to make Sedge. Or something. Today, I make no sense. For that, I apologise.

That's my best effort at a rampaging rhino. Didn't get the "rampaging" part much, but a few things that could be done to make it look rampaging.. I've tried, but none of these have worked for me.

-Dropped shoulder, dust kicking, snorting, stamping.

One of the snakes could be closely blended with the background and form a noose, like a trap.

Annnd yeah. Miiight try anims later. We shall see.

Okay, I'm working on a small enemy sprite. What would any forest be without pesky mosquitos?

I have the basic body down, just need to work on the wings and the animation.

I like the body, but I think it would look better with more bug-like wings. I'll edit with an example of what I mean real soon.

Yeah I wasn't sure how to go about doing the wings. I don't think you'd actually see the wings too much because they're flapping so fast. I was going for more of an action-lines type approach to see how it looks. And help on the wings would be greatly appreciated.

Alrighty then, here's a sort of tribute to petey pirana from super mario. Sort of looks like it could be friendly. Heheh. I'll have a crack at some waddling and biting animations sometime.

I used Sibix's tile template, if that's ok with him.

Transparent versions:

So I had this idea today of a banana canon.

I whipped this up. I think it still needs tweaking, but wanted to get opinions.

Posted By: Larwick
Date Posted: 25 February 2006 at 7:14am

Lol, i like that idea JJ_Maxx. The wheels on the 'BanCan' are very nice, but shouldnt the banana curve up? Then the monkeys could aim it up and down. That would be quite comedic to see a bunch of monkeys coming out of a bush with a banana cannon in their midst.

And thanks kwigbo! Although i'm having some trouble animating it, i'm trying to get it to waddle and when it bites to snap forwards (tweaking in the bite still would be needed) If anyone would like to have a go that would be great.

Just A Question Why Do You Type Like This?

Anyways... Hey JJ, why not try and make it so the banana spits the ball out.
Like someone is basically squeezing or squishing it out if the peel?

Adds to the hilarity. SPLAT. PJ gets stuck in the muck of the banana. Ooooh, or does he eat it? Who will ever know.

perhaps, he could gain the 'Shark-chomp" move and then eat it,
otherwise KABOOM pj dies in a massive bananary splat.

Hm, if it was a single fire banana shot out of the peel, there should be an annoying little monkey that jumps on it to launch it. Or not. Just an idea. I don't really know what kind of game this is going to be other than that I know it's a side-scrolling platformer, so I need to read up of the rest of the information before I can even offer suggestions.

No worries Wannahla...*gets bored writing out name* ...Wanna! That's what i shall call you, if you dont mind. Yes, no worries there, sounds like a nice idea. Then the banana skin and other parts of the cannon could quickly rot into the ground... if anyone understand that. THEN TEH MONKEY COULD KILL STICKY PJ.

How about a monkey that descends from the trees above and:

  1. ...eats a banana and trows the peel at you.
  2. ...trows a banana or a coconut.
  3. ...spits at you.
  4. ...eats a banana and spits on you.
  5. ...or when you get too close, it just grabs you, pulls you up and slams you on the ground.

And I am thinking of making a canibal shaman or something like that. or maybe the canibals worship the monkeys.

looks great Krysis... though the way the head attaches to the body of the monkey seems odd. Could you give us a version with a more proportionate head?

-------------


Posted By: Krysis
Date Posted: 04 May 2006 at 1:11am

 

I wasn't sure what exactly do you mean by more proportional, so I tryed 3 different versions.Ver. 1 with smaller heads; ver.2: round-headed; and ver. 3: standart square-headed monkeys with a better head-to-neck connection . Also a added a coconut and a bigger banana.

And how about this! A banana ride!  It can be used as one of the folloing:

  1. A jumping pad.
  2. Some sort of health or stamina replenisher.
  3. Some kind of a minigame. using left and right buttons you must keep your balance on it.
  4. A checkpoint, used for saving.
  5. A banana gun?
  6. Or something else.

A snake based on Saboteur's concept and a frog. The frog is animated, but not looped (don't ask) so you might want to refresh the page.

weird, don't know why the background isn't transparent and why the animation doesn't look right.  Never had flash do this to me before, the SWF looks fine.

Larwick inspired me with another idea when he made that man-eating plant thing from mario.. then I thought of zelda and the jungle..

You know in the windwaker, those cool plants that swallow, then spit you out when you're trying to get to the doku leaf?





Maybe he could jump on these like a trampoline..

edit: it looks too 3d compared to the rest of the game, but it's supposed to be a really round bulb.. if it doesn't work out, maybe it could just be a part of the background? (slightly faded colors)
