Shoot 'em ups are usually set in mechanical and spacey worlds, so, influenced by Fejer's work (and a little Indigo and AdamAtomic) I thought why not go the other way and have an over the top cute and cartoony style instead.

Not at all colour optimized but I'm happy with it anyway. Hope you enjoy. :)

My heart has melted. I want to play this game.

This is what cuteness is all about.

freakin sweet man - I love the style.  its not too fejer, but certainly does has his flavor.  This is a lot more organic than fejer's stuff I think, which is really nice to see with these colors.  Awesome

Again in a very happy and cute style :)

Keep it up!

Platform mockups are my favorite. Gorgeous colors and shapes.

Very nice and cute!

Great work ! This is very cute !I especially like the sun and the clouds (of course the sprites are cool too ! ). Just one critic: i think that the foreground trees are not stylized the same way as the rest of the graphic elements, they are a bit more realistic.

I like result :) My favourite parts are trees and big dino in left corner. Also round clouds are well fitted with rainbow and some other elements. Only sun is very projecting and stay like character.

MMF2 is an awesome program. I'm not very good with it, but it's fun to work with, and definitely powerful.

Also, this is an awesome mockup. The title definitely fits. =D

Playable demos ^^

I shall be patient.


You could always get some one else to program it though.

Thanks for the kind words guys, I appreciate it. I agree fully with you guys too, there are so many great mockups that will never get put into motion.

I don't have any programming skills per se, but I'm pretty comfortable with the game creation tool MMF2 so whipping up a quick demo isn't a problem technically. The big problem as you said DJD is that it's tough to finish a project when you have so many ideas floating around.

Don't fear though guys, I do have full intentions of turning this, and a few other things into fully playable demos. Please be patient is all I ask.

Completely agreed with skeddles, said the same thing in some other mockup here recently.

This is freaking awesome, like your previous work, and should be a game (a small one.) I know a few cats here who would be able to do it (myself included) and you probably have some programming skill yourself perhaps, but the big problem is that it's just hard finishing a project with either a big imagination or a big work list with a small team.

Nevertheless, keep up this great work. I like seeing a person's style transposed to the many elements of game graphic design.

Oh wow! This is so good! Amazing style!

skeddles (Level 11 Psychopath) at 11/8/2008 1:11:51 PM
Yeah yeah, your awesome, we get it.
Mockups piss me off. It seems like the only games people make have crappy graphics, and the only good graphics are just mockups.

I want to play it now.
