I instantly thought of Contra (for the NES)\u00a0for some reason, and I had planned on making this a vanishing-point psudeo-3d-in-2d style game (like the Contra base stages), but it\u2019s turned into a vertical twitch scroller. Controls are mouse-and-keyboard; you control the crosshairs with\u00a0the mouse, while moving with the arrow pad. Since I suck at spriting, the John McClane sprite bears some resemblence to the\u00a0Contra characters as I redrew them.<\/p>\n<p>The game will feature multiple stages with (hopefully) humorous cutscenes between each. The level files have a simple flat file format, so making custom levels would be possible. There is also a rudimentary particle engine.<\/p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 33%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n<div class=\"gallery galleryid-2529 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail\" id=\"gallery-1\"><dl class=\"gallery-item\">\n<dt class=\"gallery-icon landscape\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/2008\/07\/05\/die-hurrrrr\/turnips\/\"><img alt=\"turnips\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail\" height=\"150\" src=\"\/data\/posts\/2008\/07\/9e3147aa42927eab18a375795487ecca.png\" width=\"150\"\/><\/a>\n<\/dt><\/dl><dl class=\"gallery-item\">\n<dt class=\"gallery-icon landscape\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/2008\/07\/05\/die-hurrrrr\/death\/\"><img alt=\"death\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail\" height=\"150\" src=\"\/data\/posts\/2008\/07\/baf9b122669766d59e860fdbe0cbdef9.png\" width=\"150\"\/><\/a>\n<\/dt><\/dl><dl class=\"gallery-item\">\n<dt class=\"gallery-icon landscape\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/2008\/07\/05\/die-hurrrrr\/dialogue\/\"><img alt=\"dialogue\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/07\/dialogue-150x150.png\" width=\"150\"\/><\/a>\n<\/dt><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\"\/><dl class=\"gallery-item\">\n<dt class=\"gallery-icon landscape\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/2008\/07\/05\/die-hurrrrr\/gameplay-2\/\"><img alt=\"gameplay\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/07\/gameplay-150x150.png\" width=\"150\"\/><\/a>\n<\/dt><\/dl>\n<br style=\"clear: both\"\/>\n<\/div>\n<p>Yes, there will be unicorns.<\/p>\n<p>Back to the grind!<\/p>","time":"July 5th, 2008 10:59 pm","title":"Die Hurrrrr"}
