Day 6:
So today, I completed Level 2 to my satisfaction for now. I may to tweak some minor details later such as the placement of the enemies, but for today, it's good. The puzzle in the level was giving me a bit of trouble but I was finally able to make it work like a charm! I just needed to figure out how to make one event influence another correctly using switches and self switches.
But enough of that, lets talk about the characters!
Characters and Enemies:
Putty:
Putty is an escape artist. I haven't gotten to the point of drawing out the intro (I'm planning to make it something like an animatic-style cutscene, but that's not until I'm done the programming parts). She's pretty well known in her little country and travels a lot to perform. Putty worked and studied hard in circus school to get to this level. It's pretty hard, taking care of her little brother on the side, but she's sure that in the big litter-box in the sky, their parents are smiling down on them both. It's kind of unfortunate that this time they ran into the Bad Dogs. That's why you need to help her get her brother out of there and make a quick getaway!
Goob:
Goob is a silly little cat that helps Putty with her performances. He really admires his big sister and dreams of being a successful business man when he grows up. For now, though, he's just a little cry-baby kitten. However, he is pretty smart, and has a pretty high IQ score. He gets kidnapped and held hostage by the Bad Dogs, and It's your job to rescue him in the game.
Enemy Bad Dog:
True to their name, these are the biggest, meanest dogs in the city! They can run pretty fast too! Be careful as you go through the levels in the building. If they catch you, it's game over! But I bet Putty can think of something to get them caught by the police. We'll see what happens when you beat the game.Thanks for reading! See ya next update!
