Here it is! The moment we’ve all been waiting for. Extra Heroes is now up for download. I’m fairly happy with how it turned out considering we barely had any time to get this done. Go grab it now!

Here’s an updated video of my TIGSource comp entry. Still an early prototype. But should be done on time.

Haven’t posted anything lately. Been extra busy with my TIGSource entry. Wasted a whole week trying to port one of my tools. When that didn’t work I decided just fix what I had. Wise choice.

One of the main reasons I decided to give this comp a shot was to stress test my engine. I haven’t done anything serious with it yet. As it turns out, there’s a bunch of stuff I just hadn’t thought about. This has really slowed my entry down.

2 more days. Will I be able to make it? I sure hope so!

Squeezed this in my morning routine. I’ll probably add a bit of movement to the arms.

Added transparency to the shadow. Also quickly put in Satan in the game. I still need to code his AI but that’s probably gonna take the whole month to do. NPCs are coming soon.

First playable. Or something like that

I worked part of the night on the main actor controls. At this point I’m pretty sure I’m going for Extra Heroes. I have a couple of gameplay ideas.

Here’s a quick look at what I have running in my XNA engine.

Extra Heroes

One more!

Still haven’t made up my mind but it’s looking more like this is what I’ll be picking. I still need to figure out what the game will be gameplay-wise.

TIGsource is having a contest. I thought the idea of creating a game from a fake box art was rather fun so I might give it a shot.

I was toying around with some ideas. Right now I’m debating Burp N Shoot or Extra Heroes.
Here’s what I have so far with Extra Heroes.
