This is my first idea I had for the enemys, it took me a while to manage to get it up on my site. The shapes as they move will hopefully change colour as they move across your screen. It took me while to decide how to do it. I am also working on the other shapes as we have decided to add more shapes to it. At the moment I am adding colour to it so that I do not lose the idea of of it changing colour as it moves. As you can see in the photo I added it has different shapes and different colours as it would progress in movement. This is my most recent update of the shapes.

Are you going to use a sprite sheet style animation or a .GIF file to do the animation? Have you thought of what speed you'd like the animation to run at? If that sort of animation was too fast it would become a rather headache inducing affair.
ReplyDeleteI'd suggest using a slow colour blend cycle to make them change gradually and fade into each other as they move, this will be pleasant to look at.
I like the colours that you have chosen, I find them to go well with each other, do you plan on using a black & white backdrop in order to create an interesting contrast between the bright and colourful and eye catching enemies?
I like the idea of the game and that its based in the future. I like the colours you have used for the game and i also like the idea that the colours change when they move across the screen.
ReplyDeletealso, it may be worth while considering when the images come across the screen that the images rotate so it looks like that they are out of control.
i agree with what jack has posted and you will be able to add all the shapes you have shown to make the game more interesting. However, as the fourth shape will be the same shape as the robot in the middle of the screen people could get confused which is which.
ReplyDeleteHello Mr "Welsh_Believer" I would like to point out that the whole point of the game is to confuse people. I am happy that you responded in that way as it shows our game is already confusing your brain.
ReplyDeleteI like Alex's idea that they rotate as they come across the screen. That would make them feek more threatening.
