Y6:W12 - Platdude in The Spirit Collector
Blog
25th March 2014
This week sees our intrepid hero running around a house, capturing ghosts.
In many ways, this is a bit of a departure from the intended game.... -=-=- Last week I figured it might be a nice idea to resurrect the classic "Monsters Upside Your Head", aka "Ace Paceman", so I started off by making a nice simple platform engine which coped with both ladders and stairs. Figuring ghosts would make a nice change from the usual Monsters, I then decided that ghost-traps would be a decent change in weapon from "dig inexplicably large hole in the floor", and would probably make slightly more sense.. Given that ghosts tend to float, they wouldn't really fall into a hole!! The game evolved and changed over the course of the week. The amount of tweaking I've done to turn this into a playable game is, quite frankly, staggering! I think it finally settled into a groove, at some point yesterday, and is now a somewhat mostly playable game. Currently the Windows, HTML5 and OUYA versions are available, and the Android one should appear shortly, once I can get the touchscreen controls to feel "just right". Stupid game!! Grr...
