This is my Non DKC Project I am currently working on. Questions, just ask!

[Cyclone]

Looking pretty darn cool man.

This looks very promising! Only thing I would do is to slow down the brightness fluctuation on the floor grid, it is too hurtful for my eyes.

Hey guys I just noticed the quality of this video is very POOR. I didn't notice until after posting you can't make out any detail in the ship or the background. I will try and upload a higher quality video soon

[Jeffrey_Bones]

here is an HD quality preview of the game

[Cyclone]

I'm digging it.
Is there a way to add transitions to the ship when it switches direction?

[Jeffrey_Bones]

Cyclone, YES! I am currently working on that. I'm thinking of using a hyper spinning rotation animation each time you change directions but I'm not sure how it's going to look until I work it out. (I don't like the way the ship currently moves either) It needs to change directions very fast but at the same time look fluid.

In other News: I have a new level to show! This level will be called "Return to 1983 Dimension" and will feature a remixed version of Michael Jackson's Beat It!

FEEL FREE TO GIVE SUGGESTIONS! And remember this is only one of the levels/concepts that will be in the game, in other words you will only see this particular level once in the games 100 levels!

I like it!

-So do you have any names for the enemies yet?
-The teeth should make sounds in tempo to the music (like Baby Yoshi in NSMBU)
-That pepper butterfly... dude

[Jeffrey_Bones]

I haven't decided names for all of them yet although I have a few. The pepper butterfly was actually designed by my wife. I thought of calling that one a Pepperfly. I don't have a name for the mouth yet, however in the game's directory it's referred to simply as "lips". I am open to any suggestions on names! that would be cool.

[Markster]

I recall you talking about this on the chat. I am also working on a game project.

For Vinny

[Jeffrey_Bones]

Making it look way cooler!

CLASSIC GAMEPLAY!!!!
This will be one of the retro dimensions, it is an obvious clone of the game Asteroids. Other retro dimensions will include Pac Man and Centipede.

[Jeffrey_Bones]

Pac-Man themed realm for RETROPIA! This video has 2 different cameras, the first half of the video is a dynamic style camera that I am working on (it's still buggy) this camera will turn cinematic style when turning corners but then pop back to normal after you make your turn. Kind of like an action movie. The second half of the video is the normal camera .

[Super Luigi!]

I'm not really sure about the dynamic camera. It seems neat, but like you said, it's still buggy. The dots may need to be enlarged for the players to grab them. Also, are the lips supposed to be Pac-Men? Either way, I'm glad to see your progress.
