My first game and hi!

[NERDnotGEEK]

Hey, just thought I'd introduce myself and what better way than to also talk about my first game with GE

It ofcorse is not finished yet but ill keep updating here untill it is. Its a side scroller with a difference(very slight z axis)

Basic story line
you play a swat member in the future where all morals have been abandoned, its a crazy world out there, robberys and murder round every corner. you start in a small cell after been arrested for failing to take a shot at a female stealing from a shop to get food for her children. and your decisions then on will set out the story line.

Its going to be a game based on your decisions, be good or bad and different things will happen, it wont be too major, just different cut scenes and 2 quest lines after the inital good and bad quest line at the beggining to decide what quest line you will take.

i shall be doing everything myself, music, drawing and the storyline but if anyone feels they has anything to add even just some plain and simple constructive criticism It would be much appreciated.

so heres a picture of the first cell so far all the movment has been done with the z axis, you can jump even with the z axis in place, took ages to figure out how to get that to work

Good luck! It looks nice, although the swat guy looks a different style than the background, which looks fairly well done.

cool o.o

[NERDnotGEEK]

yeah i was just thinking that myself about the character, needs more depth to him, looks too 2d for the background I shall have to change that

shall post some updates tomorrow, kinda busy with my maths work and as we all know, school comes before games kinda, sorta, sometimes

[NERDnotGEEK]

okay i give up with making my character look any better, drawing people isnt my thing would anyone else be kind enough to have a go at making him fit in more with the design of the level?
thanks and + point if ya can

wow! This looks awesome!

Is this gonna be an adventure like Beneath-a-steel-sky? Or is there going to be combat as well?

Looking forward to this.

[NERDnotGEEK]

Im glad someone noticed the angle i was coming from with the art it will have combat in it if i need the extra edge at that part in the game like one part that is planed, there will be a bar fight, if your good you help the guy getting beat up and he becomes a contact, if your bad you beat the guy up aswell and the gang becomes your contacts. but for now its an adventure with a few puzzles, there will be good npcs and like i said, the storyline will be rated on your goodness/evilness levels.

Cool. Good idea. A simple concept done well is always more effective than a complicated concept which has been rushed. Point!
