Looks great!  Just make sure he walks faster in the final build.

Yes actions delays are not optimised, and i think too that the main caracter is a little bit slow .

Nice!  I like the character art.

What is "retrotaku"?  Is that your studio-name??

That's very, very, very cool looking! Even in it's very, very, very early stage. And I know it's very, very, very early, but are you planning on releasing it physically, or download only?
Title: Re: Very, very, very early prototype of retrotaku's project
Post by: touko on February 13, 2012, 06:41:31 AM
Physically of course, karate will be the test, and if it's concluant ...

A full action/plateforming, with 5 or 6 levels ..

Graphically impressive, but it'll be the mechanics of gameplay that make or break the game. The main character does look a little dorky, so I hope his attack modes are interesting.

no brew wars lol, all developpers work for them and your pleasure, not for compétition (else only a little bit  :wink: ) ..

PCE scene is too small for this kind of things .
For me all i make on this machine is for me, and not to say, "i am the best",cause i'm not .

Yes competition is a leitmotiv, but respect must be the first thing.

Good graphics. :) Reminds me of  Super Back to the Future on the Super Famicom.

It's used in music, so few would know it's meaning; alternatively use 'theme' or 'guiding principle'.

ok, i did'n know, thanks for tips ;-)

The only way "brew wars" would be of any use is if it got other people to start doing shit.  As it stands, the only people still working on stuff are Aetherbyte, Frozen Utopia, and Touko, and we've been doing stuff side by side for what, 4 years now?

holyf*ck!

I hope we can get that URC driving demo guy game person to come back.

or some of the others.  Like DamageX

And the Zaku guy is working on "something", & I don't think it's his previous project, I think it's a full game, maybe I'll ask him over at the Atariage boards.  Oh, & don't forget about Eponasoft.  Sure, it's Nod on the coding side, along with K on sprites for Monolith, but other non-frozen utopia peep's are up in that sauce as well! :D

Sure I knew about the meaning behind this word, because it is 100% German language, which is my mother tongue :)

It usually refers to a main subject/reason of doing something or kind a slogan (of a group or company).

ah yeah I always forget about TailChao guy.  He's not too vocal.  I'd be curious to see what he's up to as well.  I think I remember Tom saying he wanted to get him to do something, or that he was already doing something.  I don't remember though!

and Eponasoft = FU as far as I care.  It's still Rover, lol. :)
