More character ideas?
After some brainstorming – and a failed attempt at partnering with someone – I think I have a better idea of what I want to do. I’m seeing a tiki man running through the jungle and stomping on colorful birds. It’s like mario, except tropical.
I’ll keep you …

I’m posting this walking urinal in an attempt to show more of my game design process.
It kinda looks like Barney ate his own body…
Anyway, I’m flirting with the idea of using a surrealist’s happy place (or this poptart commercial – same difference) as inspiration for my next game. Somehow dinosaurs felt like an interesting direction to take. I think this little guy is going into the trash heap, though. I started working on a robotic looking fellow and he’s much more promising. Robots are easier to make too, so I can make more of …

So, it’s been seven months, but I finally added Azurefish to the site, lol. They say laziness is a vice; that must be why is feels so goooood.
In other news, William and Sly 2 has been sent out to sponsors. It could be only a week or two away!! Everybody scream!
I think for my next game I’m not going to be so quiet about progress’n’such. It’d be more fun to post screenshots and talk about what I’m working on. I just wanted William and Sly to be a big surprise, haha.
So anyhoo, for my next game …

Work on William and Sly 2 is going very well. I think I can safely say I’m close to the end (meaning a few more weeks of work). I have a fair bit of world building left to do, but I have all the game mechanics in place and most of the animations done at this point. The music is also completed.
The look of the game has changed somewhat significantly since that last screenshot, but since I’m rather close to the end now I’m going to forgo posting any more shots so you guys can have some surprises. …

Wow, this blog is bumpin’ now! I figured I’d answer all the comments on my last post with a new post rather than a bunch of comments.
First, here’s a picture since this post is long. :3 You probably will never get to see this in its entirety anywhere else since it’s the very back layer of the game:

@ Matt: Or anyone who wants to send me an email: Luke(at)particlasm.com. I should put an email link on the side somewhere…
You can post your ideas here too, though.

@Victor: Thank for the ideas!
I’ll start out by saying I don’t …

Hooray, I was able to pass the point of no return! Work has been going pretty smoothly with William and Sly 2 (should I actually call it that? Maybe I’ll go “world 2″ like Fancypants…), so I thought I’d post a screenshot to make you all drool. :3
I’ll try to do updates more often, though I don’t really know what to post since I don’t want to wreck the impact by showing everything before it comes out. I suppose only the most rabid fans are still coming here after two years, so I may as well give …

Hello poor neglected blog. I still love you, I really do. It’s just, I have all this TV to watch, and all these books to read. :3
My progress on WaS2 has been about as slow as my posting on here. I’m picking away at it like an old scab, and it’s starting to bleed. A grossly apt analogy, that. I’ve finally put my foot down, though, and decided to deprive myself of everything good each day until I put in a solid four hours. I mean, it’s not like it’s grueling hateful work, right? …

Oop, did I just say William and Sly 2? YES! Haha, I’ve actually started it and now that I’m making a post about it I’m going to feel obligated to finish it.
I also released a new game (Azurefish) a few days ago. Here’s a link to the sponsor’s site: GOGOGO!
Here’s the newfangled Sly. I’m doing it in 3D because I want to do a lotsa lot of animations and I love animating in 2D about as much as swimming in a sewer. (Which means not at all, in case that wasn’t clear…) I used to …

I finished working on my latest game “Sweet Dreams, Arabella” two nights ago! It’ll be out as soon as I find a sponsor for it.
In other news, it’s been snowing like mad here again. I don’t remember ever seeing this much snow before. I’m loving it. :D It does make driving a bit of a pain though.
I’m trying to decide what game to work on next. I’d like to make the sequel to William and Sly, but I’m afraid I might have to rush it if I do it now. I’m thinking I’ll do a bigger …

Soooo, looks like Arabella is close to being done already! Can’t wait to release it! It’ll probably be a bit because I need to find a sponsor, but I’m almost done actually making it, which is cool. I forgot how much fun these small games can be to make. I think for my next one I’m gonna make an RPG type game where you fight a single big boss. I can have some fun with the animation, and RPGs aren’t too complicated to program. I can probably pump it out in a few weeks just …
