Getting there!

January 14th, 2009

Been working on Dim Sum Robot #1.  I spent a bunch of time implementing enemies and then I decided it didn’t feel right at all, so I took them out.  Messing with menus, sound, and balancing now; will hopefully be finished by Friday.  I am so bad at writing music, I’ve been stumbling around all week hoping I hit something that sounds listenable.  I think I finally have something not horrible, we’ll see.
Here’s one of the former enemies.  I think part of the reason I didn’t like the feel was because all the little food carts were a bit too cute:

Maybe if the cart was perpetually on fire, and the guy inside was actually a werewolf that ate all his customers.  That’s a different game though!

You run a dim sum stand and feed people, getting them the delicious dumplings as fast as possible.  They give you tips sometimes!  Or try to arrest you.  And you fight with other food stands.  Unfortunantly for them, they aren’t robots.

It’s in Flash and it should be done later this month!  I am so excited about it, have to get back to work!
