Hi Everyone. Im ready to hear the title anouncement grabbed dinner and ready
to go. After the title i will think a bit what the game is going to look like
and get started on the mechanics of it :D.

Got the character animation running right now is just a stick figure that
changes color and working on using the accelerometer for movement. At the moment
having issues since i have never used the accelerometer before and he seems like
he is not that much into cooperating. Will post back around 11 hopefully i can
do some screenshots The game is about an australian guy fighting his way to the
outback to go get to a bar.

Finally got the accelerometer controls down and it works in conjunction with
the animation. Used the pattern to manage scene that I used in there is no place
for gnomes.

 

Plan on adding the buttons to be able to kick, jump and change weapons now. a
Screenshot of what is looking like so far is not much but it’s a good start.

Moved to work on creating buttons got 3 of them and found optimal placement
for the gameplay also went ahead and added gravity in to the game since at the
moment I haven’t added a floor the character falls pretty easily through the
floor. I have decided that the tile space for the level is going to be as
follow. 30×30 tiles with 14 tiles of height and then 40 tiles of width.

 

Another screenshot below has you can see not too mucho to look at the moment.
I’m trying to get the mechanics solid and figure out the spots that need
animations and later on I will reskin. The character is not on the screenshot
since he fell through the screen.

 

I’m placing screenshots in my blog at alfredoalvarez.com/blog
