Yay for screenies.

Hey there!

It's been a while since I wrote a blog entry… so I decided to make a new one, with some screenies of my project, "Master of the Dark Sun" ( it used to be called "Electoons!", but I thought that was a stupid title ).

You probably don't know anything about this project, so I'll tell you.

It's a Rayman fangame, but it's not because it's a fangame that it's a bad game. I work really hard on this. Watch the screenshots ( and don't watch the screens from the previous posts or the image at the top of my page, it's not up to date anymore ).

In case you don't know who/what Rayman is, it's a platformer. Here's a video of Rayman 1 and here's one of Rayman 2 ( watch from about 1:30 ), the two games that this is based on, in action.

I won't tell you the story of "Master of the Dark Sun" just yet, but I'll give you some screenshots instead. You really need to watch them, they look simply great.

First, an old screenshot with the plum system in action: you can even carry a plum on which another electoon is standing! Click here to view.

Then, an underwater screenshot ( note that I have updated the interface, but I still need to do a background for swimming underwater - normally, you don't see the clouds through the water XD ). Oh, and I still have to make some underwater plants… Click here to view.

Now, ANOTHER underwater screenshot, but this time, watch Voltie ( the main character of the game )'s hands! Click here to view.

Now, you need to see this. You REALLY need to see this. Butterflies! ^^ Click here to view.

More butterflies, and this time, Voltie didn't bother watching them, so he just closed his eyes. XD Click here to view.

And now, don't fall into the water! Click here to view.

Thanks for reading. More info will come soon ;)

Droolie.

Oh, and pictures are worth a thousand words, so don't say I have too little blog content… :P

Since when did Rayman have fucking swimming?!

Graphics are pretty nice, but they seem kinda big for the screen don't you think (I mean the viewport)…as in, it seems kinda hard to fit any action in such a small space. Did you do the graphics yourself?

Next time, use tags, it's a pain in the ass to open up all those links and then close them again. Also, just a tip, but it's a bad idea to call you're own game bad, or say that it's not a nooby game…just makes it seem nooby ;)

Thanks for the comment, though making the action fit in the view is not as hard as it seems. The view is like that in the original Rayman too. ;)

And yeah, I did the graphics myself. ^^

About the img-tags, I thought that would stretch the page, since the screens are pretty large…

Also, thanks for the tip, I also thought that when I re-read my post. Oh well, I don't have any time to change that now. XD
