Tiki Racer (game from last year)


Hey guys!
I've found our blog from last year and lo and behold, I actually put the game online too!
Have a looksee at Tiki Racer.
You can see by the blog how things changed and transmogrified into what could have been a great game. Obviously it's not finished, I didn't have time as I was the only one working on it at the later stages (Rich decided to leave, Michael was no-where to be found).
Still, it's all good to look back on and LEARN!!!

Also, I've had some ideas on the Pirate game theme. I'll do some sketches later tonight but the game could be between the pirate ship (which has a cannon you can change the trajectory with using your mouse) vs various other types of boats / ships. The first boat could be, oh I dunno, say a chinese junk boat which you have to sink in order to get to the next level, that level being a little more difficult with a bigger boat with a small amount of artillery. This could go up until you have a vicious battle with another pirate ship as the climax!!! Hmmmmm (strokes beard), could be a good thing and enjoyable to play.

Just an idea!

  1. was thinking the game could be set in modern times but with the pirates stuck in the past. they would leave their ravaged dessert island looking for new surroundings only to find the rest of the world has moved on without them. they then have to deal with more modern threats or enemies such as paparazzi, paedophiles and terrorists.

  2. Good idea Josh, but possibly a bit too advanced an idea for what we have to create.
    Don't forget the ENORMOUS world of Code that we have to tackle.
    The amount of work to make one object move around is deep, let alone trying to get his feet, arms, sword etc going and then muliplying that with other pirates or people or objects? It makes me wee my panteloons!
